calling party number, and calling name (if the standard is similar to NI2). Inbound
calling name is fully supported, but outbound calling name is only supported for Off
System Extension calls.
ShoreGear-E1
The ShoreGear-E1 provides high-density trunking to the central office using PRI or
QSIG signaling for international installations. It can also be used as a gateway to legacy
PBX systems. This switch also supports basic media encryption at the application layer.
The QSIG protocol handles the signaling between digital private branch exchanges
(PBXs) for Integrated Services Digital Networks (ISDN), and is based on the Q.931
standard. By designating network elements as master or slave, QSIG handles the basic
signaling functions of call setup, handshaking, and call teardown, and allows PBXs
from different third-party vendors to communicate and interoperate. QSIG is based on
ECMA standard (see ECMA-142 and ECMA-143 for more information), and supports
calling party number, and calling name (if the standard is similar to NI2). Inbound
calling name is fully supported, but outbound calling name is only supported for Off
System Extension calls.
