CANADIAN EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS
Notice: The Canadian Industry and Science Canada label identifies certified equip-
ment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications
network protective, operational, and safety requirements. The Department does not
guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the fa-
cilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be in-
stalled using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company’s inside
wiring associated with a single-line individual service may be extended by means of a
certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). Compliance with the above
conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian mainte-
nance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user
to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications com-
pany cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of
the power utility, telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present,
are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the
appropriate electric inspection authority, or an electrician, as appropriate.
The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the
total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent
overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any combination of devices
subject only to the requirement that the total of the Load Numbers of all devices does
not exceed 100.

Chapter 1
Understanding ISDN and the ISU 128
ISDN OVERVIEW
The Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) is a public or private switched
digital network. ISDN is an international standard for digital communica-
tions, allowing a full range of enhanced services supporting voice, data, and
image applications through standard interfaces over a single telephone wire.
ISDN provides a means of integrating these services and modernizing com-
munication networks for information movement and management efficiency.
THE ADTRAN ISU 128
The ADTRAN ISU™ 128 is a stand-alone device that connects data terminal
equipment (DTE) to the ISDN network or to a leased digital network for data
transmission. The ISU 128 allows high-speed data transmission (up to 128
®
kbps) over a single ISDN line. The ISU 128 meets the Microsoft Windows 95
Plug-an-Play specifications. The file MDMADTN.INF is required. To obtain
this file contact our website at URL of www.adtran.com ADTRAN technical
support. The number is located on the inside back cover of this manual.
From the network, ISDN is delivered by a single 2-wire 2B1Q U-interface
which is connected directly to the ISU 128. ISDN network termination is de-
signed into the ISU 128, eliminating the need and expense of a separate NT1.
For network testing, the ISU 128 responds to NT1 test commands from the tele-
phone company central office (CO).
The ISU 128 transmits data over an RS-530, V.35 interface, or EIA-232 interface,
selectable on the front panel. The ISU 128 performs at synchronous data trans-
fer rates of 2400 bps to 128 kbps and asynchronous rates of 300 bps to 115.2
kbps. For speeds over 64 kbps, the industry standard BONDING or MULTI-
LINK PPP protocol aggregates the two 64 kbps B channels for a maximum of
128 kbps. The ISU 128 is intended to support the transfer of data and images

over ISDN. The ISU 128 may be viewed as an ISDN dial modem that allows
cost-effective high-speed data transmission at rates up to 128 kbps.
The ISU 128 has one RJ-45 jack available on the rear panel for network connec-
tion (see Figure 1-1). The RJ-45 jack labelled ISDN IFC is for ISDN Basic Rate.
ISDN Basic Rate service divides a standard telephone line into three digital
channels capable of simultaneous voice and data transmission. The three
channels are comprised of two bearer (B) channels at 64 kbps and one data (D)
channel at 16 kbps (2B+D).
The ISU 128 also supports a leased digital connection that allows data to be
transferred at up to 128 kbps over a 2-wire facility using the U-interface jack
labelled ISDN IFC. This type of service is a permanent connection between
end points and is sometimes referred to as a leased connection, a dedicated
connection, a nailed-up connection, a private circuit, or a limited distance mo-
dem connection. These types of service are referred to in this manual as
Leased Line Service.
Figure 1-1
ISU 128 Rear Panel
Dialing from the ISU 128 is accomplished in a variety of ways:
•
•
•
From the front panel
From up to ten stored numbers
Through an RS-366 dial port used in facsimile and video conferencing ap-
plications
•
•
Over the DTE interface using the AT command set
With V.25 bis in-band dialing (used in applications such as LAN/WAN
bridging)

•
With DTR asserted, some bridges/routers raise DTR when bandwidth on
their dedicated line is exceeded. In high-traffic times, this allows the ISU
128 to dial out over the ISDN for an extra 128 kbps of bandwidth-on-de-
mand.
The ISU 128 front panel accommodates a 2-line, 16 character LCD display.
Seven LED indicators monitor data flow and display the status of key DTE in-
terface leads as described in Table 1-A. A front panel keypad supports config-
uration, test modes, test status, and dialing (see Figure 1-2).

ISU 128 INTEROPERABILITY
Telephone networks are evolving from analog technologies to digital technol-
ogies such as ISDN. This transition is time-consuming and costly for the tele-
phone companies. Upgrading all locations and facilities is a lengthy process.
The ISU 128 bridges this transition by supporting communications with exist-
ing and future network services and equipment. The ISU 128 supports com-
munications with Switched 56 service, Switched 56 DSUs (2-wire and 4-wire),
various ISDN terminal adapters, ISDN terminal equipment, BONDING com-
patible inverse multiplexers, and analog modems with the optional V.34 mo-
dem (part number 1202029L3).
Figure 1-3 illustrates the ISU 128 operation in various switched network ser-
vices and customer premises products.

RECOMMENDED OPERATING PROTOCOLS
The ISU 128 supports a wide range of operating modes. Many combinations
of circuit type, protocol, and data rate may be selected. However, only the
combinations shown in Table 1-B are recommended. As noted in Table 1-B, all
asynchronous rates will support flow control. Flow control is required when
operating at 115,200 bps using PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol), V.120, SAP (Sim-
ple Adtran Protocol), or asynchronous bonding.
Table 1-B shows that a given data rate may be achieved by more than one pro-

ISDN Ordering Codes (IOCs)
ORDERING ISDN USING IOCS
The development of ISDN ordering codes (IOCs) simplifies the process of or-
dering ISDN service. The ISDN Solutions Group, a consortium of ISDN equip-
ment vendors, service providers, and Bellcore, established these codes to
represent predetermined line configurations for ISDN Basic Rate service for
specific applications.
ADTRAN and Bellcore have registered and tested eight generic IOCs. Of
these, four are recommended for operation of the ISU 128. After reviewing
the following list, order ISDN lines from the local service provider. Request
the appropriate IOC for your application. They are described in detail in this
chapter.
In some areas, ISDN tariffs may warrant the use of ordering codes with less
features. For example, in a particular region, there may be additional monthly
expense associated with having voice service on each B channel. If you have a
data only application, Capability R (previously Generic Data I) may be more
cost-effective.
If these are not available from your service provider or you would like more
information regarding ordering ISDN see the ADTRAN document Ordering
ISDN Service User Guide part number 60000.015-8 or contact your telephone
company for alternative line configurations. The Ordering ISDN Service User
Guide is available on the ADTRAN home page at http://www.adtran.com or
by calling ADTRAN.

Installation
After unpacking the unit, immediately inspect it for possible shipping dam-
age. If damage is discovered, file a claim immediately with the shipping car-
rier, then contact ADTRAN Repair and Return Department (see the end of this
manual).
Ensure that a grounded, 115 VAC, 60 Hz receptacle is used to provide power.
NETWORK CONNECTION
The ISU 128 supports either dial or leased operation. An eight-pin RJ-45 mod-
ular jack labelled ISDN IFC on the rear panel allows connection to ISDN Basic
Rate Service provided by the telephone company or to a leased type of service.
Dial operation uses the ISDN Basic Rate U-interface and allows the ISU 128 to
dial out over the ISDN network. The Leased Line Service can be dedicated
2B1Q data service or a nailed-up circuit (twisted pair) that provides a dedicat-
ed connection between end points such as a limited distance modem or point-
to-point connection. When using the ISU 128 in either of these types of service,
connect the network interface to the RJ-45 connector labelled ISDN IFC.
See the appendix Connector Pinouts for network connection pin assignments.

DTE DATA CONNECTION
Data terminal equipment is connected to the ISU 128 by using either the RS-
530 interface, the V.35 interface, or EIA-232 interface on the rear panel of the
ISU 128. The maximum recommended cable lengths are shown in Table 3-A.
See the appendix Connector Pinouts for each interface pin assignments. Be sure
to configure the menu option for the connector type used in your application.
Refer to the section DTE Options for Asynchronous and Synchronous Operation in
Chapter 6 to configure the connector type.

The RS-530 interface and the V.35 interface support data rates up to 128 kbps.
The DTE rate is configured from the front panel of the ISU 128 or by using AT
commands. See the chapter Configuration to configure the ISU 128 with the ap-
propriate data rates.
To prevent possible radio frequency interference emissions, a shielded V.35
cable is required.
DIAL INTERFACE CONNECTION
If out-of-band RS-366 dialing is required for applications such as videoconfer-
encing or FAX machines, the dialing interface of the host DTE should be con-
nected to the dial port marked RS-366/Maintenance. Pin assignments for the
RS-366 connector are listed in the appendix Connector Pinouts.

MAINTENANCE INTERFACE
The Maintenance Interface is available at 9600 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, asyn-
chronous format, through the RS-366/Maintenance port. See the appendix
Connector Pinouts for Maintenance port pin assignments. The VT 100 terminal
or null modem can be connected to the RS-366/Maintenance port using an
EIA-232 cable. This interface can be used to set internal S-registers, dial ISDN
connections, and disconnect calls. This port also allows ADTRAN Technical
Support personnel to retrieve vital information from the unit if a problem is
encountered during initial configuration of the ISU 128. Most problems can be
solved without resorting to this port for assistance.
In order to activate the Maintenance port, ensure the dial mode is either Front
Panel or AT commands. When the dial mode is set for RS-366, the Mainte-
nance port is disabled.
The Maintenance port cannot be used to pass data or to remotely configure another
ISU 128 using the Cfg. Rmt. Unit option.
AT commands sent to the Maintenance port are not preceeded by "AT."
Example: To display the unit model number, enter: I0

Loopback DTE
Loopback DTE causes the ISU DTE port to loop back toward user equipment.
This allows performance of a bit error rate test (BERT) between the ISU 128
and the end user equipment to verify proper cable connection.
Loopback Network
Loopback Network forces the ISU 128 to loopback both the B1 and B2 chan-
nels toward the network. This can be used to allow a far-end user to perform
a BERT all the way through the network.
Loopback Protocol
Loopback Protocol allows data to loopback toward the network after passing
through a selected protocol such as T-Link or BONDING. See Figure 5-3 for
loopback points.

Loopback Remote
Loopback Remote allows the ISU 128 to issue a V.54 in-band loopback com-
mand to a far-end unit while still accepting data from the DTE connector. This
provides bit error rate testing of an entire link using an external BERT test set.
To use this feature, both units must be configured for Clear Channel operation
and the far-end unit must be able to respond to V.54 loopback commands. See
the chapter Protocol Options to configure the unit for Clear Channel operation.
Press the Cancel key to end the test.
Loopback Remote 1B and 2B are only used with the DTE set to asynchronous.
Test Remote
Test Remote allows the ISU 128 to issue a V.54 in-band loopback command to
a far-end unit and BERT the link using a built-in 2047 pattern generator/
checker. This allows for testing a circuit without any extra test equipment. To
use this feature, both units must be configured for Clear Channel operation
and the far-end unit must be able to respond to V.54 loopback commands. See
the chapter Protocol Options to configure the unit for Clear Channel operation.
The built-in 2047 pattern generator/checker displays the number of bytes
transmitted on the top line and the number of errored bytes received on the
lower line of the front panel display. Press 0 to clear the counts. By pressing
the down arrow, you can loop down the far end unit and run a head to head
2047 pattern test. Press Cancel to end the test.
Loopback Disable
The following options are available when disabling loopbacks:
No Remote Loopbacks
The ISU 128 ignores all V.54 and DDS loopback commands.
DDS Accepted
The ISU 128 responds to DSU Latching Loopback commands. This option
only takes effect if the unit is in leased line mode.
V.54 Accepted
The ISU 128 responds to V.54 loopback commands.

mode only) and V.54 loopback commands.
The ISU must be optioned for Clear Channel operation for DSU Latching and V.54
loopback commands to take effect.
Near-End Block Errors/Far-End Block Errors (NEBE/FEBE)
NEBE/FEBE allows the user to determine the quality of the network connec-
tion by viewing the number of near-end (NEBE) and far-end (FEBE) block er-
rors occurring on the ISDN interface. A large or incrementing count indicates
problems with network equipment. An incrementing or large count of NEBEs
indicates problems from the switch to the terminal adapter. An incrementing
or large count of FEBEs indicates problems in the direction from the terminal
adapter to the switch.

Switch Protocol
Find out what kind of ISDN switch your local CO is using by asking the tele-
phone administrator or telephone company representative. Configure the ISU
®
®
128 for either a Northern Telecom DMS-100 , AT&T 5ESS switch, or a switch
conforming to the National ISDN-1 standard (usually an AT&T 5ESS, NTI
DMS-100, or Siemens EWSD). In the Far East, configure for the NEC switch.
Call Type
The call type can be configured four different ways, depending on the type of
service used: speech, audio, data 56 kbps, or data 64 kbps.
When placing outgoing calls using the optional V.34 modem, the unit must be op-
tioned for either speech or audio call type.
Speech
Speech directs the call control software to request a Mu-law/A-law speech cir-
cuit as the bearer capability for outgoing calls. The Speech option is used with
an ISDN line configured for voice service. In some areas voice service costs

Chapter 6. Configuration
less than data service. A Speech call type does not guarantee an end-to-end
digital connection with some local and long distance carriers.
Audio
Audio directs the call control software to request a 3.1 kHz audio circuit as the
bearer capability for outgoing calls. The Audio option is used with an ISDN
line configured for voice service. In some areas audio service is less expensive
than data service. Selecting an Audio call type guarantees a digital end-to-end
ISDN connection.
Data 56 kbps
Data 56 kbps directs the call control software to request a 64 kbps data circuit
that is rate-adapted to 56 kbps. Data 56 kbps is intended for use in circum-
stances where interoperability with Switched 56 service is desired.
Data 64 kbps (default)
The default Call type for ISDN service is Data 64 kbps. This directs the call
control software to request an unrestricted 64 kbps circuit.
Terminal Identification
Terminal identification is assigned by the local telephone company and con-
sists of a Service Profile Identifier (SPID) and Local Directory Number (LDN).
Setting the SPID
The SPID is a sequence of digits used to identify ISDN terminal equipment to
the ISDN switch. The SPID is assigned by the local phone company when the
ISDN line is installed and it usually looks similar to the phone number. Obtain
SPIDs from the telephone administrator or local telephone representative.
The number of SPIDs required (0, 1, or 2) depends on how your ISDN line is
configured. For instance, a point-to-point line has no SPID. Multipoint lines
may have one or two SPIDs. The ISU 128 uses the presence of SPID 1 to deter-
mine if the line is multipoint. If the line has only one SPID, then it must be en-
tered in SPID 1.

Chapter 6. Configuration
Dial options
The ISU 128 can be configured to dial using the Front Panel, RS-366 port, AT
Commands, or V.25 bis Commands. Figure 6-4 illustrates the menu tree.
Front Panel
To establish and disconnect calls from the front panel keypad, configure Dial
options for Front Panel. See the section Front Panel Dialing Options for more
detail.
RS-366
To establish and disconnect calls using the RS-366 parallel dialing port, config-
ure the unit for RS-366 dialing. This enables the RS-366 port on the rear of the
unit. Whenever this dialing mode is enabled, DTR must be active before a call
is placed. The call may be disconnected by dropping DTR, or from the front
panel by selecting the #(pound) key to go directly to the Dial menu and select-
ing 1=Hang up line, then Enter.
DTE RS-366 dialers can end a string of dialed numbers in two different ways.
The end of number (EON) alerts the ISU 128 that the entire number has been
sent. Another method is to simply stop sending numbers and allow the ISU to
time out, then dial the number. The ISU 128 supports both methods of dialed
number terminations. The following options in Figure 6-4 allow for fine-tun-
ing the dialed number termination.

1 sec or EON
The ISU 128 assumes the dial string is fully entered if more than one second
elapses since the last digit was entered, or the unit receives the EON com-
mand.
2 sec or EON
The ISU 128 assumes the dial string is fully entered if more than two seconds
elapse since the last digit was entered, or the unit receives the EON command.
5 sec or EON (default)
The ISU 128 assumes the dial string is fully entered if more than five seconds
elapse since the last digit was entered, or the unit receives the EON command.
This is the factory default setting.
10 sec or EON
The ISU 128 assumes the dial string is fully entered if more than 10 seconds
elapse since the last digit was entered, or the unit receives the EON command.
20 sec or EON
The ISU 128 assumes the dial string is fully entered if more than 20 seconds
elapse since the last digit was entered, or the unit receives the EON command.
Wait for EON
The ISU 128 assumes the dial string is fully entered only if the unit receives the
EON command.
AT Commands
Configuring the ISU 128 for AT commands enables in-band dialing over the
DTE interface using asynchronous AT commands. AT commands can be used
to set up the ISU 128 as well as establish and end a call. Calls can be discon-
nected from the front panel (as previously described) or from the far-end unit.
When AT commands are selected, the DTE port becomes dual purpose. First,
while a call is not established, the port accepts AT commands. During this
time, the Carrier Detect (CD) signal is inactive. Second, when a call is estab-
lished, the port is used for data. This data mode is indicated by the CD signal
active. See the appendix AT Commands for a listing of the supported AT com-
mands and their functions. In addition to the front panel, the ISU 128 can be
configured and controlled with in-band AT commands from an asynchronous
DTE port.

Chapter 6. Configuration
To exit the data mode and enter the command mode, the asynchronous DTE
device must transmit a proper escape sequence to the ISU 128. A specified
time delay must occur between the last data character and the first escape se-
quence character. This is the guard time delay, and it can be changed by writ-
ing a value to the S12 register. The default value for the guard time is one
second. For a valid escape sequence to occur, the DTE must transmit the es-
cape code character three times in succession with delay between each charac-
ter being less than the guard time. The default escape sequence is +++.
Once the command mode is entered, AT commands can be transmitted to the
ISU 128 to configure most of the options, dial remote DSUs, or initiate tests to
check both the ISU 128 and the network connections. All command lines must
begin with the AT character set in either capital or lower case letters and end
with a terminating character. A command line can be terminated at any time
by transmitting the Ctl-X (ASCII 018) after the AT attention code. The ISU 128
ignores this command line and issues an OK response.
The command line may contain a single command or a series of commands af-
ter the AT attention code. When a series of commands are used, the individual
commands may be separated with spaces for readability. The maximum
length for a command line is 40 characters. Each command line is executed by
the ISU 128 upon receipt of a terminating character.
The default terminating character is a carriage return (ASCII 013), but it can be
changed by writing a different value to register S3. Before the terminating
character is transmitted, the command line can be edited by using the back-
space character (ASCII 008) to erase errors so the proper commands can be en-
tered. Examples of using AT commands are provided in this section.
Using AT Commands
Type AT followed by the letter of the command and numeric value of the set-
ting desired and then press Enter. The following command returns the soft-
ware version of the unit:
ATI1
Using S-Registers
The configuration of the ISU 128 can be changed and/or reviewed with S-reg-
isters. See the appendix S-Register List for a description of each S-register and
its corresponding range of values.

Dialing a Call Using the AT Command Processor
To dial a number using the DTE terminal and AT commands type ATD and
the telephone number on one line and press Enter.
ATD5551212
When the dialing process begins, the front panel reads Dialing 5551212. If the
call is successful, Connect is displayed on the front panel, followed by the rate
adaption protocol in use and the bit rate. If the call is not successful, the front
panel displays Disconnect followed by Ready. At this point the unit is ready
for another call. The status buffer can be examined to find the reason for an
unsuccessful call.
To end an active call with the AT command processor, press the break in key
sequence (+++) or the redefined key, then type ATH and press Enter to hang
up the line.

V.25 bis
Configuring the ISU 128 for V.25 bis (see Figure 6-5) enables in-band dialing
over a DTE interface using asynchronous or synchronous V.25 bis commands.
V.25 bis can be used to establish and end a call. Disconnecting calls can also
be done from the front panel (as previously described) or from the far-end
unit.
V.25 bis dialing is used primarily by DTE with synchronous interfaces
(HDLC/SDLC or BSC/BISYNC) not supporting the AT command set, which
is commonly used by asynchronous devices. The ISU 128 supports V.25 bis in-
band dialing in accordance with Fascicle VIII.I - V.25 bis (Malaga-Torremoli-
nos 1984, Melbourne 1988).

Although V.25 bis allows asynchronous data format, asynchronous DTE is
more likely to support the AT command set than V.25 bis.
V.25 SYNC HDLC Dialing
This setting provides V.25 bis messages in bit-synchronous format (for exam-
ple HDLC, SDLC, X.25). The bit-synchronous format is the most commonly
used by V.25 bis.
This option specifies that the characters should be 7-bit ASCII, with the 8th bit
ignored (it may be either 0 or 1).
The first byte of each packet contains all ones (A = FF HEX), and the second
byte of each packet (the C byte) is either 13 HEX or 03 HEX if not the final pack-
et.
V.25 SYNC BISYNC Dialing
This setting allows for V.25 bis messages in byte synchronous format (BI-
SYNC). V.25 bis specifies that the characters should be ASCII, 7 bits, and odd
parity. This setting allows synchronous DTE which does not use HDLC to
support serial in-band dialing.
V.25 HDLC FLAG
Configuring the ISU 128 for HDLC FLAG V.25 bis enables in-band dialing
over a DTE interface using standard synchronous HDLC V.25 bis commands
with 0x7E hex idle.
Disabled
This selection disables in-band dialing over the DTE interface.

Auto Answer
The ISU 128 auto answer parameter can be configured in one of three ways:
Disabled, Enabled, or Dump all calls.
Disabled
When Disabled is selected, the ISU 128 will not automatically answer an in-
coming call. The AT answer command (ATA) must be issued to the ISU 128
before it accepts the incoming call. The ringing call can be dumped using the
Hang up line command, or answered using the Answer Call command.
These commands are listed under the Dial branch of the main tree. See the
chapter Dial Options for more detail.
Enabled
When Enabled is selected, the incoming call is answered. If that call is a
BONDING call and requires two B channels, the second call is answered. If
the unit is configured for a call that uses only one B channel, such as 56 kbps
or 64 kbps, the ISU 128 will not accept a second incoming call.
Dump all calls
When Dump all calls is selected, the ISU 128 will not accept any incoming
calls. This keeps the line clear for outgoing calls.

Answer Tone
The Answer tone option (shown in Figure 6-9) enables the transmission of a
modem answer tone at the start of voice and audio calls. The purpose of this
tone is to disable echo suppression and echo cancelling on the circuit in order
to get a clear digital circuit. This may be necessary on some long distance cir-
cuits. The specifics of the tone are 4 seconds, 2100 Hz at a -10 dB level, with

The ISU 128 displays the Call ID for all dumped calls in the Status buffer. See
the section Status Buffer for more information on the Status buffer.
Because different switches handle calls and Call ID differently,
use the following procedure to determine if a seven or ten digit Call ID (phone
number) should be stored:
1. Select Ansr if SN0. . .9 under Call Screening.
2. Store your seven digit number in SN0.
3. Place a call to the ISU 128 with the stored number to determine whether it
answers properly.
4. If the ISU 128 does not answer the call, look at the Call ID message in the
Status buffer. An explanation of Status buffer messages is located in the
appendix Status Buffer Messages. More than likely, the Call ID number is a
ten digit number
5. Reenter the number in SN0 as it is displayed in the Call ID message and
test Call Screening again.

limited distance modem application, where two ISU 128 units are directly con-
nected without the use of channel banks (see Figure 6-13). The far-end unit
should be configured for Slave and it derives its clocking from the ISU 128
configured as Master.

Chapter 6. Configuration
Connector Type
The ISU 128 can provide an EIA-232, RS-530, or V.35 interface to a DTE by se-
lecting the desired connector type.
RTS Options
Selecting 1 MS delay causes the Clear-to-Send (CTS) signal to change states 1
millisecond after the DTE Ready-to-Send (RTS) signal changes state. The 18
MS delay causes the CTS signal to change state 18 milliseconds after the DTE
RTS signal changes state.
CTS Options
Selecting Forced CTS causes the CTS signal on the DTE connector to be con-
tinually asserted. Selecting Follows RTS causes the CTS signal to follow the
state of the RTS lead.
CD Options
Selecting CD Forced on causes the carrier detect (CD) signal to always be as-
serted. Selecting Normal causes the CD signal to be asserted when a call has
been successfully established. Selecting Off with LOCD causes the CD signal
to be disasserted for a period of 5 seconds, then reasserted at the termination
of a call. Selecting Off with Link Down causes the CD signal to be disasserted
when the U-interface is not present.
DTR Options
Selecting Ignore DTR causes the ISU 128 to disregard the state of the data ter-
minal ready (DTR) pin. Cmd when Off forces the unit into the AT command
processor mode when DTR is not asserted. To return on-line, DTR must be as-
serted, followed by the AT0 command. Idle when Off forces the unit to end
the current call when DTR is no longer asserted. Off>On dial #0allows one
call attempt to be automatically established when the DTR signal goes from in-
active to active. While DTR is active, front panel dialing is also possible.
When DTR goes inactive, any outgoing call present is disconnected. Off>On
dial #0uses the phone number in stored number register 0 to establish the call.
To store a number for automatic dialing see the chapter Dialing Options. Se-
lecting Dial #0 if Onallows calls to be automatically established when the

Chapter 6. Configuration
DTR signal is in the active state. The unit attempts to establish a call using SN0
until the call is established or DTR goes inactive. Selecting Answer if On only
allows the unit to answer an incoming call if the DTR signal is asserted. Dial/
Ans if On... allows the unit to dial Stored Number 0 or answer if DTR is assert-
ed.
DSR Options
Selecting DSR forced on causes the Data Set Ready (DSR) signal on the DTE
connector to always be asserted. Selecting OFF Idle+Test causes DSR to be
disasserted if the network interface is in test or there is not an active call. OFF
Link Down causes DSR to be disasserted if the network interface is disrupted.
Flow Control (Asynchronous Data Format)
Selecting Hardware Flow (as shown in Figure 6-17) causes the ISU 128 re-
ceived data to be presented to the DTE interface only when RTS is asserted.
Software Flow control uses Xon/Xoff to control data transferred between the
DTE and the ISU 128. Selecting No Flow Ctrl disables flow control.

Transmit Clock (Synchronous Data Format)
Selecting the Normal option causes the ISU 128 to be the synchronous DTE in-
terface transmit timing source. Transmit data is timed from the transmit clock
provided by the ISU 128 on the DTE connector. Normal clock is the normal
mode of operation for the ISU 128.
With the External option selected, the ISU 128 slaves to an external transmit
timing source. The external clock is provided to the ISU 128 by the external
transmit clock signal at the DTE connector. This signal is echoed by the ISU
128 to the transmit clock signal on the DTE connector.
This option provides for situations where equipment connected to the ISU 128
DTE connector cannot slave to the ISU 128 provided clock. The ISU 128 uses
the U-interface as the frequency standard when it must provide a synchronous
receive or transmit clock. The externally provided clock must be of the same
average frequency as the clock that the ISU 128 would provide if internal clock
were selected. If this is not the case, then bit errors may occur.

See the section Recommended Operating Protocols and Table 1-B in Chapter 1 for
more information on recommended modes of operation.
The desired protocol may be selected with AT commands at the DTE port or
from the ISU 128 front panel. A description of each protocol follows.
Clear Channel
Clear Channel provides the entire bearer channel to the DTE without regard
to data format or protocol. This provides a rate adaptation at or near the ISDN
circuit rate. The primary usage for Clear Channel in the dial line mode is for
56 kbps and 64 kbps synchronous. It is useful when the DTE performs its own
internal synchronous protocol/rate adaptation or the ISU 128 is calling a 4-
wire Switched 56 DSU. In the leased line mode, Clear Channel can provide
synchronous bit rates of 56 kbps, 64 kbps, 112 kbps, and 128 kbps.
BONDING Mode 1
The BONDING mode 1 protocol allows the ISU 128 to communicate at bit
rates in excess of 64 kbps to a maximum of 128 kbps. BONDING provides
high-speed communication between ISU 128s, ISDN TE/TAs, and inverse
multiplexing equipment supporting the BONDING protocol. The protocol al-
lows use of both synchronous and asynchronous bit rates. When the ISU 128
uses the BONDING mode 1 protocol, it must make two separate ISDN phone
calls to seize control of both ISDN bearer channels. The protocol corrects any
delays existing between the two bearer channels and presents a single high
speed data channel to the DTE. For successful high-speed operation, both the

near- and far-end DCE need to be configured to use the BONDING mode 1
protocol. Also, if the second B channel number is different from the first B
channel, it is important that the 7-digit LDN is programmed in the answering
unit. The BONDING mode 1 protocol negotiation phase has numerous timers
to allow for transmission delays due to satellite hops, international calls, etc.
The timers may be adjusted if necessary by entering into the BONDING mode

The timers are defined as follows:
TXINIT
This option specifies the length of time the originating endpoint attempts to
detect the BONDING negotiation pattern from the answering endpoint before
deciding the BONDING call has failed. In general, this timer value should be
left at the factory default setting of 10 seconds. Values of 1, 2, 5, 10 (default),
20, 50, 100, and 200 seconds may be selected.
TXFA
This option specifies the length of time both endpoints attempt to detect the
BONDING frame pattern when a call is connected before deciding the BOND-
ING call has failed. This timer value should be left at the factory default setting
of 10 seconds. However, when interoperating with other manufacturers’
BONDING equipment, it may be necessary to lengthen this timer so that it
matches TXADD01. Values of 1, 2, 5, 10 (default), 20, 50, 100, and 200 seconds
may be selected.

Chapter 7. Protocol Options
TXADD01
This option specifies the length of time both endpoints wait for the additional
call to be connected at the end of negotiation before deciding the BONDING
call has failed. The factory default setting of 20 seconds will be sufficient for
most calls to go through, although when dialing overseas it may be necessary
to lengthen this timer to allow for slower call routing. Values of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20,
50 (default), 100, and 200 seconds may be selected.
TXDEQ
This option specifies the length of time both endpoints attempt to equalize the
network delay between the bearer channels before deciding the BONDING
call has failed. The default setting is 50 seconds. Values of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50
(default), 100, and 200 seconds may be selected.
TANULL
This option specifies the length of time the answering endpoint attempts to de-
tect the BONDING negotiation pattern from the originating endpoint before
aborting to clear channel mode. In general, this timer value should be left at
the factory default setting of 10 seconds. However, it may be necessary to
shorten this timer, if the DTE equipment connected to the ISU also has timer
constraints for completing non-BONDING parameter negotiation. Values of
1, 2, 5, 10 (default), 20, 50, 100, and 200 seconds may be selected.
TCID
This option specifies the length of time both endpoints attempt to negotiate an
agreeable value for bearer channels and channel capacities before deciding the
BONDING call has failed. This timer default setting is 5 seconds. Values of 1,
2, 5 (default), 10, 20, 50, 100, and 200 seconds may be selected.
V.120
The V.120 protocol is a CCITT compliant rate adaption method which pro-
vides DTE service between the ISU 128 and other V.120 compliant devices at
rates less than the 64 kbps ISDN bearer channel rate. V.120 supports synchro-
nous and asynchronous DTE rates. See the section Recommended Operating
Modes and Table 1-B in Chapter 1 for available V.120 rates. Figure 7-2 illus-
trates the menu path for selecting V.120.

V.110
The V.110 protocol is a CCITT compliant rate adaption method which pro-
vides DTE service between the ISU 128 and other V.110 compliant devices.
V.110 supports synchronous and asynchronous DTE rates. See the section
Recommended Operating Modes and Table 1-B in Chapter 1 for available V.110
rates. Figure 7-2 illustrates the menu path for selecting V.110.
V.34
The V.34 protocol allows the ISU to originate and receive calls to analog mo-
dems on POTS lines. The V.34 modem only supports asynchronous DTE rates.
To place an outgoing call to an analog modem, the call type must be changed
to Audio. See Call Type in Chapter 6 to change call types. Figure 7-3 illustrated
the menu path for selecting the V.34 modem operational parameters.
The ISU 128 with optional V.34 modem (part number 1202029L3) must be used for
operation of this protocol.
Error Control
This option sets the type of error control to be negotiated with the far-end mo-
dem during train-up. Normal turns all error control off and makes allowances
for flow control. Reliable MNP uses MNP error control. If the far end does
not support MNP then the call is terminated. When Auto-Rel MNP is select-
ed, the ISU 128 attempts to use MNP error control. If the far end does not use
MNP then normal operation is used. Force LAPM allows only LAPM (V.42)
error corrected calls to connect. Force MNP allows only MNP error corrected
calls to connect.

DSU 57.6 ASYNC
The DSU 57.6 ASYNC or DSTOP protocol allows the ISU 128 to communicate
asynchronously at 57.6 kbps with ADTRAN 2- and 4-wire Switched 56 DSU
products. In addition, the ISU 128 will communicate with other ISUs over dial
and leased connections using this protocol. Figure 7-1 illustrates the menu
path for setting the DSU 57.6 ASYNC protocol.
T-Link
The T-Link protocol allows the ISU 128 to communicate with 2-wire Switched
56 DataPath Data Units (DUs) such as the ADTRAN DSU III 52W. The T-Link
protocol performs two functions:
•
The T-link protocol adapts DTE data subrates of 64 kbps to the 64 kbps
bandwidth of the ISDN bearer channel.
•
For asynchronous and synchronous DTE rates up to 19.2 kbps, T-Link
transmits the status of the DCE-DTE EIA leads to facilitate flow control
and maintenance.
In addition to 2-wire Switched 56 DataPath DUs, the ISU 128 can communicate
with any other device that uses the T-Link protocol. Figure 7-1 shows the
menu path for selecting T-Link.
Simple ADTRAN Protocol (SAP)
Simple ADTRAN Protocol (SAP) is a rate adaption method providing DTE
service between ISU 128 units at a sub 64 kbps ISDN bearer channel rate. Se-
lecting this menu item causes the ISU 128 to use SAP protocol.
The primary usage for SAP is general purpose asynchronous rate adaption in
a dial-up or leased environment. SAP only operates on a 64 kbps data link.
See Figure 7-2 for the menu path to select SAP.

FALLBACK
The FALLBACK asynchronous rate adaption protocol provides the capability
to automatically establish calls with other ISDN terminal adapters, Switched
56 DSUs, V.34 modems (optional), as well as other ISUs using a single config-
uration. To communicate with analog modems, the ISU 128 with V.34 modem
option (part numbers 1202029L3) must be used.
The ISU 128 must be optioned as follows for FALLBACK operation:
•
•
Any asynchronous bit rate up to 115.2 kbps which is supported by the
DTE.
Flow control must be enabled and supported by the DTE.
FALLBACK supports the following protocols based on the call type: BOND-
ING Mode 1, V.120, T-Link, and V.34.
When answering calls, the ISU 128 uses the incoming call type to determine
which rate adaption protocols to support. See Table 7-A for the call type and
the supported rate adaption protocols.

When originating calls to unknown units, the ISU begins protocol selection
based on the local call type. Data 64k is used for FALLBACK selected from
Quick Setup menu. Upon connection at 64k call type, BONDING, V.120, and
PPP are attempted. If connection is not made at 64k, the ISU 128 attempts an-
other call at 56k call type. If connection is made at 56k, then V.120, T-Link, and
PPP are attempted. If connection is not made at 56k, then an audio call type is
attempted, provided the ISU 128 with the V.34 modem option is used. If the
ISU connects the audio call type, the V.34 protocol is attempted for V.34 com-
patible modems. Once a call connects, if the protocol cannot be negotiated, the
protocol is negotiated as specified by S11 register (default is DSTOP). If this
protocol fails, the call is disconnected.
If FALLBACK fails to determine which protocol is running, the user has the
option to select which protocol will run. Figure 7-6 illustrates the FALLBACK
default settings.

Point-to-Point (PPP) Async-to-Sync
PPP provides a standard method for transporting multi-protocol datagrams
over point-to-point links. The ADTRAN PPP async-sync protocol allows the
®
ISU 128 and a PC or Macintosh running PPP software, to communicate with
a PPP-compatible bridge or router. The PPP async-sync protocol complies
with Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) RFC 1662. The menu path to se-
lect PPP is shown in Figure 7-7.
The asynchronous control character map (ACCM) option is scanned during
the negotiation. When the ACCM option is seen in a configure ACK link con-
trol packet, it is adopted by the ISU 128. In addition, when the ACCM option
is not seen in the configure-request packet from the network, the ISU 128 adds
it to the packet.

Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)
The ISU 128 is configured for PPP from the protocol options of the configura-
tion menu by selecting 1=PPP or by setting S-register S27 to a value of 0. Fig-
ure 7-6 illustrates the menu path for setting PPP, Multilink PPP, and PPP w/
Comp.
Multilink Point-to-Point Protocol (MP)
Multilink PPP is an extension of point-to-point protocol and is a method for
splitting and recombining data packets across multiple logical data links.

Chapter 7. Protocol Options
The ISU 128 is configured for multilink PPP from the protocol options of the
configuration menu by selecting 2=Multilink PPP or by setting S-register S27
to a value of 1. In this mode, the ISU 128 dials a second number to establish a
second point-to-point link. Once the second link is established, multilink PPP
is performed over both B-channels.
The phone number for the second call should be placed in stored number 1
(SN1). If no number is stored in SN1, the same phone number is dialed to es-
tablish the second link.
PPP with Compression
The ISU 128 is configured for PPP with compression from the protocol options
of the the configuration menu by selecting 3=PPP w/Comp or by setting S-reg-
ister S27 to a value of 2.
When setup for PPP with compression, the ISU 128 will negotiate the compres-
sion control protocol (CCP) with the network PPP peer. If STAC™ compres-
sion is successfully negotiated with the peer, data packets from the DTE are
compressed before being sent out through the network. Likewise, compressed
packets from the network are decompressed before being transmitted through
the DTE.

Remote Configuration
Remote Configuration
Remote Configuration allows configuration and testing of a remote unit by
calling the remote unit from a local unit. The remote unit can be configured
using AT commands, the Front Panel, or the VT 100 terminal interface.
There are six items that cannot be set through remote configuration. The items
are Dial Line Mode, SPID(s), LDN(s), Switch Type, Quick Setup, and Factory
Default.
Configuring with AT Commands
A remote unit can be configured by issuing an ATD command with the phone
number of the remote unit plus a dial string modifier. The configuration com-
mand syntax is:
ATD nnnnnnn#6#yyyyyy
Where nnnnnnn is the remote number to call, and yyyyyy is a password of up
to six digits.
After the connection is established, AT commands issued to the local unit are
sent to the remote unit and executed. The remote unit sends response back to
the local unit which then sends the response out of the DTE interface connec-
tor. See the appendices AT Commands and S-Registers of the ISU 128 manual
for a complete list of commands.

Troubleshooting
When the ISU 128 powers up, it performs an internal self test. This takes about
10 seconds. At the end of the test, the front panel displays Self Test Passed.
IF SELF TEST FAILS
If Self Test Passed is not displayed, perform the following procedure to verify
if the problem can be fixed locally:
1. Ensure that the ISU 128 is receiving power and is switched on.
2. Turn off the ISU 128. While holding down the 0 key, power back on. Con-
tinue to press 0 for 15 seconds. This will reset all the internal settings to
factory defaults.
3. If the ISU 128 still does not pass self test, call ADTRAN Technical Support
for assistance. See the back of this manual for phone numbers.
IF THE ISU 128 DOES NOT READ READY
When the ISU 128 has been set up and connected to an ISDN line but the front
panel does not read Ready after a few minutes, use the following trouble-
shooting procedure:
1. Cycle power on the ISU 128, leaving it off for a minimum of two seconds.
Turn the power on for one minute to ensure the unit does not read Ready.

Chapter 11. Troubleshooting
2. Disconnect the ISU 128 from the ISDN line. From a functioning voice
phone, call the local directory number(s) provided with your line. Calling
a good ISDN line with nothing connected usually results in a ring or fast
busy tone. If someone answers or a not-in-service intercept is received,
there is probably something wrong with the translation of the ISDN line.
The phone service provider should be able to help.
3. If the ISU 128 continues to read Link Down, there is a physical problem
with the ISDN phone line (more than likely, a problem with the Layer 1
setup). The problem may be one or more of the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
The ISU 128 software setup
The ISU 128 hardware
The wiring on your premises
The telephone service provider's wiring
The telephone service provider's hardware
The telephone service provider's software setup
To isolate the problem, perform the following procedure:
A. Make sure the ISU 128 is configured for dial line service. Check that
CONFIG, Netw. options, Dial Line, is selected on the menu.
B. Try another piece of functioning ISDN equipment with a U-interface
on the ISDN line.
C. Talk to your service provider and ensure you have an ISDN Basic
Rate U-Interface with 2B1Q line coding (wrong options are an S or T
interface or AMI line coding).
D. Ensure that your ISDN phone line is connected to the actual telephone
line (U-interface) provided by your telephone company. Make sure your
ISDN line is not connected though another piece of equipment such as
an NT1 in a wiring closet somewhere.
E. Make sure nothing else is bridged across the ISDN line pair.
F. With a minimum of extra wiring, try connecting to the ISDN line pair
at the point where service provider's wiring ends.

G. With the ISU 128 connected to the ISDN line and powered up, talk to
your service provider's repair group and inform them that your ISDN
basic rate line has a physical layer 1 problem. Ask them to check the
ISDN line. Tell them that you have an NT1-like device at the end of the
ISDN line.
4. If the ISU 128 continues to read Getting TEI #1, the ISU 128 is physically
connected to your local telephone service provider but is unable to estab-
lish logical layer 2. The problem may be one or more of the following:
•
•
•
The ISU 128 software setup
The telephone service provider's software setup
Hardware configuration if the ISDN line is extended from the switch
To isolate the problem, use the following procedure:
A. Ensure the ISU 128 is set up for the correct switch protocol by selecting
CONFIG, Netw. options, Dial Line, Switch protocl.
B. Ensure the line quality is satisfactory by checking for near- and far-end
block errors (NEBEs and FEBEs). To do this, select Test, NEBE/FEBE. If
the counts are non-zero and incrementing, there may be a physical link
problem as described under Link Down (Step 3).
C. Try another piece of functioning ISDN equipment with a U-interface
on the line.
D. With the ISU 128 connected to the line and powered up, talk to your
service provider's repair group and tell them you have an ISDN basic
rate line that appears physically okay but has no terminal endpoint
identifier (TEI). Ask them to check the ISDN line translation and ensure
that the ISDN line supports dynamic TEI allocation. Tell them that you
have an NT1 and terminal adapter device connected to the line.

International Telegraph Union (ITU) which prepares recommendations, commonly
referred to as international standards, to resolve technical telegraph and telephone
problems.
central office (CO)
In telephony, the phone company switching facility or center, usually a Class 5 end
office, at which subscribers local loops terminate. Handles a specific geographic area,
identified by the first three digits of the local telephone number. Usually the facilities
of the local BOC.
clear channel
A channel in which all the 64 kbps are used for transmission. To achieve this bit
robbing signalling must be eliminated.
D-channel
The ISDN channel that carrier signalling information to control the call setup,
teardown, or invocation of supplementary services. The D-Channel may also be used
to provide packet mode data service.

DDS
Dataphone Digital Service. AT&T private line service for transmitting data over a
digital system. The digital transmission system transmits electrical signals directly,
instead of translating the signals into tone of varied frequencies as with traditional
analog transmission systems. Digital techniques provide more efficient use of
transmission facilities, resulting in lower error rates and costs than analog systems.
digital loopback
Technique for testing the digital processing circuitry of a communications device. May
be initiated locally or remotely via a telecommunications circuit. Device being tested
will echo back a received test message after first decoding and then encoding it.
The results are compared with the original message (compare with analog loopback).
four-wire circuits
Telephone lines using two wires for transmitting and two wires for receiving offering
much higher quality than a 2-wire circuit. All long distance circuits are 4-wire. Almost
all local phone lines and analog phones are 2-wire.
hub
(1) Communications center, (2) Major routing station for connecting channels, (3) DDS
connecting center.
in-band signalling
Signalling made up of tones which pass within the voice frequency band and are
carried along the same circuit as the talk path being established by the signals.
Virtually all signalling (request for service, dialing, disconnect, etc.) in the U.S. is
in-band signalling. Most of that signalling is MF (multi-frequency) dialing. The more
modern form of signalling is out-of-band.
interexchange carrier
Since divestiture, any carrier registered with the FCC authorized to carry customer
transmissions between LATAs interstate, or if approved by a state public utility
commission, intrastate. Includes carriers such as AT&T Communications, Satellite
Business Systems, GTE Telenet, GTE Sprint, and MCI.
information element
The name for the data fields within an ISDN Layer 3 message.
interworking
Communication between two types of networks or end equipment. This may or may
not involve a difference in signalling or protocol elements supported.

Glossary
ISDN
Integrated Services Digital Network. A network architecture that enables end-to-end
digital connections. The network supports diverse services through integrated access
arrangements and defines a limited set of standard, multipurpose interfaces for
equipment vendors, network providers, and customers. Interworking with a public
switched telephone network is retained.
LATA
Local Access and Transport Area. One of 161 local telephone serving areas in the
United States, generally encompassing the largest standard statistical metropolitan
areas. Subdivisions established as a result of the AT&T divestiture that now
distinguish local from long distance service. Circuits with both end-points within
the LATA (intraLATA) are generally the sole responsibility of the local telephone
company, while circuits that cross outside the LATA (interLATA) are passed on to an
interexchange carrier.
loopback
A diagnostic procedure where data is sent to the device being tested, and the output of
the device is fed directly back to its input, looped around, and the returning data is
checked against that which was sent.
message
The Layer 3 information that is passed between the CPE and SPCS for signalling.
multiplexing
The combining of multiple data channels onto a single transmission medium. Any
process through which a circuit normally dedicated to single user can be shared by
multiple users. Typically, user data streams are interleaved on a bit or byte basis
(time division) or separated by different carrier frequencies (frequency division).
multipoint circuit
A circuit consisting of three or more stations connected directly electrically.
narrowband ISDN
A collective term for BRA and PRA at speeds up to 1.544 Mbps.
non-ISDN line
Any connection from a CPE to a SPCS that is not served by D-Channel signalling.
non-ISDN trunk
Any trunk not served by either SS7 or D-Channel signalling.
NT1
Network Termination 1. A unit that provides physical and electromagnetic
termination of the U-interface 2-wire transmission line, converts between Layer 1
formats used at the U- and T- reference points, and performs some maintenance
functions.

Glossary
NT2
Network Termination 2. A unit that provides switching and concentration of
subscriber lines at the S-interface. This unit performs the functions of a customer
premises switch or multiplexer to multiplex B-channel(s) and D-channel(s) onto one
physical path and to route calls to the appropriate B or D channel.
PRA
Primary Rate Access. Connects high-capacity CPE, such as PBXs, to the network.
In the US, this is composed of twenty-three 64 kbps channels and one 64 kbps
D-channel. Also known as Primary Rate Interface (PRI).
point-to-point
Describing a circuit connecting two points directly with no intermediate processing
nodes or computers (although switching facilities could exist). A type of connection
that links two logical entities (i.e., phone-line circuit).
serving area
Region surrounding a broadcasting station where signal strength is at or above a stated
minimum. The geographic area handled by a telephone central office facility.
Generally equivalent to a LATA.
S-interface
S-Reference point. The interface that connects an ISDN terminal (TE1) or Terminal
Adapter (TA) to the NT2 reference point as defined in the I.411 Recommendation.
SPCS
Stored Program Controlled Switch. A digital switch that supports call control, routing,
and supplementary services provision under software control. All ISDN switches are
SPCSs.
synchronous
(1) The condition occurring when two events happen in a specific time relationship
with each other, both under control of a master clock; (2) A method of data
transmission requiring the transmission of timing pulses to keep the sender and
receiver synchronized in their communication used to send blocks of information.
Synchronous data transmission is used in high speed data circuits because there is less
overhead than asynchronous transmission of characters which contain two extra bits
per character to effect timing.
T1
Also T-1. A digital transmission link with a capacity of 1.544 Mbps. T1 uses two pairs
of normal twisted wires. T1 normally can handle 24 voice conversations with each
conversation being digitized at 64 kbps. With more advanced digital voice encoding
techniques, it can handle more voice channels. T1 is a standard for digital transmission
in North America.

Glossary
T1C
3.152 Mbps. Capable of handling 48 voice conversations. T1C is further up the North
American digital carrier hierarchy.
T2
6.312 Mbps. Capable of handling 96 voice conversations. T2 is four times the capacity
of T1.
T3
44.736 Mbps. Commonly referred to as 45 Mbps. Capable of handling 672 voice
conversations. T3 runs on fiber optic and is typically called FT3.
TA
Terminal Adaptor. A DCE that connects to the ISDN S-Interface and enables
non-ISDN terminal equipment to communicate over the ISDN.
TE1
Terminal Equipment Type 1. ISDN-compatible terminals.
TE2
Terminal Equipment Type 2. Non-ISDN terminal equipment linked at the EIS-232,
RS-449, or V.35 interfaces.
tandem
The connection of networks or circuits in series. The connection of the output of one
circuit to the input of another.
T-interface
T-Reference point. Performs the same function as the S-Interface but uses an NT1,
rather than an NT2.
twisted pair
Two wires twisted around each other to reduce induction (interference) from one wire
to the other. Several sets of twisted pair wires may be enclosed in a single cable.
Twisted pair is the normal cabling from a central office to your home or office, or from
your PBX to your office phone. Twisted pair wiring comes in various thicknesses.
As a general rule, the thicker the cable is, the better the quality of the conversation and
the longer cable can be and still get acceptable conversation quality. However, the
thicker it is, the more it costs.

2B+D
The Basic Rate Interface (BRI) in ISDN. A single ISDN circuit divided into two 64 kbps
digital channels for voice or data and one 16 kbps channel for low speed data (up to
9,600 baud) and signalling. 2B+D is carried on one or two pairs of wires depending
on the interface, the same wire pairs that today bring a single voice circuit int
o your home or office. See ISDN.
23B+D
In ISDN, also known as the Primary Rate Interface. A circuit with a wide range of
frequencies that is divided in twenty-three 64 kbps paths for carrying voice, data,
video, or other information simultaneously. It bears a remarkable similarity to today's
T1 link, except that T1 carries 24 voice channels. In ISDN, 23B+D gives twenty-three
channels and one D channel for out of band signalling. However, in T1, signalling is
handled in band. See ISDN.
two-wire circuit
A transmission circuit composed of two wires, signal and ground, used to both send
and receive information. In contrast, a 4-wire circuit consists of two pairs. One pair
is used to send. One pair is used to receive. All trunk circuits (long distance) are
4-wire. A 4-wire circuit delivers better reception, but also costs more. All local loop
circuits (those coming from a Class 5 central office to the subscriber's phone system)
are 2-wire, unless a 4-wire circuit is requested.
U-interface
A twisted pair subscriber loop that connects the NT1 reference point to the ISDN
network, as defined in the I.411 Recommendation. This interface provides Basic Rate
Access with an operating frequency of 160 kbps and an information rate of 144 kbps.
Under U.S. regulations, this also marks the line of demarcation between customer-
owned equipment and the public network.
video-conferencing
The real-time, usually two-way, transmission of digitized video images between tw
o or more locations. Teleconferencing requires a wideband transmission facility.
Transmitted images may be freeze-frame (where television screen is repainted every
few seconds to every 20 seconds) or full motion. Bandwidth requirements for two-way
video conferencing range from 6 MHz for analog, full-motion, full-color, commercial
grade TV to 56 kbps for digitally-encoded freeze-frame to 1.544 kbps for very good
quality, full-color, full-motion TV.
wideband
Generally, a communications channel offering a transmission bandwidth greater than
a voice grade channel. Data transmission speeds on wideband facilities are typically
in excess of 9.6 kbps and often at rates such as 56 kbps and 1.544 Mbps.
