Channel Associated Signaling (CAS) is a method of
incorporating telephony signaling info into an E1
voice/data stream. In CAS, the signaling bits (the A, B, C,
and D bits) are multiplexed into the signal stream of each
E1 channel. (By contrast, in Common Channel Signaling
(CCS), one channel handles signaling for all other
channels.) Each CAS protocol defines the states of the
signaling bits during the various stages of a call (IDLE,
SEIZED, ANSWER, RING-ON, RING-OFF).
The CAS protocol code allows the VOIP to interact
properly with the PBX or central-office switch that it
serves. The need to download CAS protocols arises for
only a small minority of VOIP users, and only when
PBX/switch is found to be incompatible with standard
protocols.
Match this parameter to the setting of PBX or central-office
switch.
