Appendix E: ISDN Primer 240
MultiMobile MT128ZLX User Guide Appendix E: ISDN Primer Introduction to ISDN Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) is a digital telephony service that offers high-speed data communications over the existing twisted-pair copper telephone wiring commonly found in residential and commercial phone service. Two distinct types of ISDN service are available around the world: : Basic Rate Interface (BRI) and Primary Rate Interface (PRI).
MultiMobile MT128ZLX User Guide Appendix E: ISDN Primer Digital End-to-End Telephony signals within central offices, between central offices, and on long-distance lines are all digital. The link from the central office to the subscriber (the subscriber drop) is really the only non-digital part of the telephony signal stream. ISDN digitizes subscriber drops, making the signal digital end-to-end. The availability of ISDN varies greatly from country to country and region to region.
MultiMobile MT128ZLX User Guide Appendix E: ISDN Primer ISDN Terminal Adapters – Internal or External. Although ISDN terminal adapters are sometimes called “ISDN modems,” this term is a misnomer. In fact, with ISDN, the signal stream is always digital, no modulation or demodulation are required (as implied by the term “modem”). Both internal and external ISDN terminal adapters are available. Internal adapters are inserted into an ISA or PCI slot in the computer’s motherboard.
MultiMobile MT128ZLX User Guide Appendix E: ISDN Primer ISDN Wiring: Standards & Pitfalls The ISDN service on the telco side of the demarc must be conveyed to the wall jack from which the subscriber will be accessing the ISDN service. However, some telephone wiring in both residential and commercial buildings are unsuited to ISDN use. For example, some surplus wires may already be use for analog lines, to power the lights on phones with illuminated dialing buttons.
