Createdby QuoteExpert Page:1 BELLSOUTH' Printed:09/17/2001 ©BELLSOUTH ..SSt SECTION 3.PROPOSED NETWORK SOLUTION Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Overview At its simplest,ISDN is a telecommunications technology designed to bring the power of the worldwide digital network directly to the desktops ofend users.Itisa communications service that is able to handle several types ofinformation,in many cases,simultaneously. ISDN is delivered through two types ofuser interfaces:the Primary Rate Interface (PRI)and the Basic Rate Interface (BRI).Each consists ofa number of 64 Kbps B (bearer)channels coupled to one D (data)channel.B channels are used to transmit voice,video,or data.D channels areusedassignaling channels aswellasfordata transmission.BasicRateISDN has two 64 Kbps B channels and one 16 Kbps D channel.Primary Rate ISDN has twenty- three 64 Kbps B channels and one 64 Kbps D channel. These channels allow you to connect more than one device,such as a PC,a phone,and a fax, to the line.You can then perform multiple tasks simultaneously,such as placing a call and sending a fax,or transmitting a data file and receiving a call.You can also combine the B channels into a single channel and achieve ISDN's top speed for sharing data files and Internet access. ISDN provides an economical and flexible approach to implementing communications services,such as telephone,facsimile,data communications,and image transmission,by means ofa digital transmission network where all signals are converted to digital signals at theuserinterfaceandremaindigital end-to-end. ISDN applications include: Internet access Keysystememulation/answeringposition LAN bridging PC-to-PC file transfer Desktop conferencing Asynchronousaccesstopacketnetwork Compressedvideoconferencing Recordretrievalwithcallingnumberdelivery Agent-at-home Medical imaging Business continuity September 5,2001 BellSouth Proprietary Page 4 ©BELLSOUTH SSt Primary Rate ISDN Overview BellSouth Primary Rate ISDN service is an ISDN-based,DS1 transport designed for companies with variable telecommunications needs. PRI's inherent value lies in its flexibility to integrate multiple voice,data and/or video transmission channels over the same facility and to provide flexible capacity on demand which eliminates the need for single-use trunks.PRI also provides digital end-to-end connectivity,and faster call setup.This service is most commonly used for customers who need to handle large volumes of incoming calls (for example,customers with call centers and/or large PBXs,and Internet service providers).PRI is also used often for customers utilizing Calling Line Identification (CLID)and Calling Name Delivery information.Less common applications for PRI are video conferencing and LAN access.PRI can be used ata host site to terminate traffic from remote locations that use Basic Rate ISDN and/or analog modems. The basic channel stmcture for PRI is 23 B channels and one 64 Kbps D channel.The 23 B channels are used for outbound,inbound,and two-way network access for voice,video,and data information.The 24th channel is the D channel,the signaling channel,which allows sst equipment and the BeilSculh network to exchange information that is needed to originate, terminate,or chahgeuTe stale of voiceand/ordatacalls.
