Brooktrout TR1034 card must act as TERMINAL end / User Side.
|

commonly written "23B+D")
|
| B Channel Provisioning: |
Circuit-Switched Voice & Data
|
| B Channel Service: |
Voice; as fax is considered voice, the line
would be configured as though voice calls were being placed over it.
|
| D Channel Service: |
Signaling only with the D-channel on
channel 24 of the T1-PRI line.
|
| Packet Handlers: |
No packet handlers other than the
D-channel.
|

64Kbps clear channel service end-to-end for
every call.
|
| Compatible Switch Types: |
Your telco provider needs to communicate what
type of switch is providing the PRI line to the Netaccess PRI board;
supported switch types are located in the section titled BTNA.CFG
Parameter Values in the ECC Manual, available
here.
Please ensure which version of the ECC software you're using, so you may
consult the right manual.
|
| Compatible Variant Types: |
Your telco provider needs to communicate what
type of program variant is programmed on the PRI line; supported variant
types are located in the section titled BTNA.CFG Parameter Values
in the ECC Manual, available here. Please
ensure which version of the ECC software you're using, so you may consult
the right manual.
|
| Called Party Number (CPN): |
This is what the ISDN world calls 'DID' or
'DNIS'. Normally the last 4 digits of the number dialed; required for
inbound routing. Please confirm with your telco service provider the
number of CPN digits they will be providing to you on inbound
calls.
|
NOTE: If the total number of digital channels
on the Brooktrout TR1034 board will not allow for all 23 B-channels to
be utilized (for instance, if you are using a TR1034+P4, 8, or 16H-T1 card,
where 'x' denotes number of activated channels on the board), you will need
to communicate to your telco provider which B-channels you'll be using. That
way, your telco won't direct traffic down B-channels which aren't mapped to any
existing TR1034 channels.
This is typically
called a partial PRI line.©2004 Brooktrout, Inc, All right reserved.
