ISDN (BRI / PRI)
ISDN services offer
flexibility and digital performance and quality to support voice,
data, video
even Internet connections at the office or in the
home. Enjoy more efficient data throughput, with simultaneous
voice and data transmission.
ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI)
ISDN provides high performance, fully digital access to the
worldwide telecommunications network through standard copper
telephone lines. This fast, digital transmission service is
available virtually everywhere within the Verizon region. From
offices, homes, and remote locations, ISDN lets you tap resources
and use new business applications where video images and data flow
simultaneously on the same line with fax transmissions and phone
conversations.
You can benefit from ISDN BRI if you need to:
-
Support a wide range of
applications and emerging trends. ISDN BRI enables a seamless
exchange of information in any medium - voice, data, or video -
at high speeds.
-
Use one of today's most innovative,
fully integrated communications solutions. With ISDN BRI, you
can do more faster and with fewer resources.
-
Provide a remote access program.
ISDN BRI lets you take advantage of the new forces shaping the
workplace including teleworkers, dispersed project teams,
resource sharing, on-line connectivity, and the need to provide
better customer service.
How Does ISDN BRI Work?
ISDN sends clear digital signals at high speeds over regular phone
lines. Without a major network investment, ISDN enables your
existing phone line to carry voice, data, and video traffic at
speeds over four times faster than a 28.8 Kbps analog line without
compression. With compression, speeds can be even faster. Voice
calls can be made more quickly and with superior call quality
because ISDN is digital. If you already have a Centrex system,
combining ISDN with Centrex gives your voice system additional
power and improves productivity.
Why ISDN BRI?
With ISDN BRI, you can:
-
Increase productivity using ISDN's
higher speeds ISDN utilizes two separate 64 Kbps (kilobits per
second) channels which can be combined into one 128 Kbps
"channel" that's over four times faster than today's 28.8 Kbps
modems.
-
Access faster data transmission
speeds resulting in shorter connection times and lower usage
costs.
-
Avoid the costs and inflexibility
of dedicated lines the same ISDN line can be used to carry
both voice and data so there's no need to wait for a fax to
finish before making a call.
-
Take advantage of productivity
enhancing applications such as remote LAN (Local Area Network)
access, videoconferencing, pre-press graphics, postproduction
editing, and digital broadcasting that can reduce travel costs
and product development time.
-
Enjoy clear, digital transmission
that results in fewer errors and re-transmissions and greater
network reliability all of which save you time and increase
productivity.
-
Back up overflow dedicated
services, such as Frame Relay, to ensure against outages or high
volume congestion cost effective insurance for
mission-critical information.
ISDN Primary Rate Interface (PRI)
ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) Primary is a local
exchange access service that creates a direct digital connection
between you and a Verizon central office providing you with voice,
data, image, and video services on a single circuit or line.
ISDN PRI gives you fast, flexible access to services such as
direct inward and outward dialing, WATS, Toll-Free Service, and
circuit-switched data. The Call-by-Call Service Selection and
Individual Calling Line Identification capabilities offer a
cost-effective, feature-rich method of local access for
applications such as PBX trunking, Internet Service Provider
access, host computer access, LAN-to-LAN connections, and
videoconferencing.
ISDN PRI transmits large volumes of data, video and enhanced voice
communications requiring higher transmission capabilities such as
videoconferencing, imaging, digital audio and CAD/CAM.
How Does ISDN PRI Work?
ISDN PRI is comprised of a central office
trunk port connected to your location via a DS1 (1.544 Mbps)
facility. Its 24 channels are arranged into twenty-three 64 Kbps B
channels for user information and one 64 Kbps D channel for
signaling and control functions. "Out of band" signaling from ISDN
offers clear 64 Kbps channels for data communications. The 64 Kbps
channels can be bundled to provide speeds up to 1.5 Mbps per line.
Why ISDN PRI?
-
Save the cost of individual
dedicated circuits.
-
Enjoy clear, digital transmission
for voice and data communications.
-
Gain the flexibility of
call-by-call service selection that increases trunking
efficiency and the potential for savings.
-
Increase call handling efficiency
with calling line identification a feature available even to
PBX users.
-
Protect the reliability of your
communications with options for backup configuration.
-
Benefit from planned enhancements
like additional telephone number capability and contract
pricing.
-
Save travel time with full motion
virtual meetings using videoconferencing.
