2 All About FRITZ!Card USB
13
Some ISDN PBX systems provide not only analog, but also digi-
tal extension lines, usually designated as internal S
0
interfaces.
ISDN terminal equipment can be connected to these digital
extensions as well as to the “external” S
0
interface provided by
the NT.
Whether you connect your FRITZ!Card USB to an internal or an
external S
0
interface, it is helpful to think of the ISDN applications
running on your computer — such as the FRITZ! software modules
FRITZ!data, FRITZ!fax and FRITZ!vox — as the terminal devices, not
the FRITZ!Card USB itself.
All incoming calls from ISDN lines are identified not only by the
MSN dialed, but also by a number indicating the requested
communications service (voice, data etc.). For incoming calls
originating from analog telephone networks, services are not
distinguished: these incoming telephone and fax calls both
arrive with the service indicator for voice telephony. For this
reason it is important to assign different MSNs to the various

service indicator.
FRITZ!fax and FRITZ!vox both respond to incoming calls for the voice
telephony service (“Audio 3.1 kHz”). If both of these FRITZ! modules
are to stand by for incoming calls at the same time, they must be
assigned MSNs that are different from each other and from those of
any telephones connected to the ISDN line.
