ISDN

ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) is a digital telecommunications technology that can simultaneously transmit voice and data over the same pair of telephone wires. It has B-channels used to carry digital information at 64 kbps and a D-channel used to carry signaling information at 16 or 64 kbps. ISDN provides access interfaces like Basic Rate Interface (BRI) with 2B+D channels for individuals and Primary Rate Interface (PRI) for businesses with large data needs. Customer premises equipment includes NTE that draws the network demarcation line and TA that allows non-ISDN equipment to connect to the ISDN line by digitizing analog signals. ISDN enables applications like digital telephony, video communications, leased line
