285.4ISDN Basics ?29419::M_SHELDONTue Mar 18 1997 12:1221
Hi:

I admit an almost complete lack of knowledge of ISDN, but really need
help in answering the following questions related to how the
ISDN line should be configured to support a connection to a RouteAbout Access
EI.


1) Does the line need 2 "B" channels ?

2) Does the equipment require 2 directory numbers for each "B" channel ?

3) Does the equipment require both voice and data capabilities ?


Any help in answering these questions is greatly appreciated.

285.5You can't multiplex 2 "B" channels...NETCAD::BATTERSBYTue Mar 18 1997 13:0811
    >> 1) Does the line need 2 "B" channels ?
    
    If what you are asking is whether the option exists to multiplex
    the two B channels to create a single 128kbps channel, I believe
    this is not supported. So two B channels are required.
    I'm not sure of the answers to the other questions. Others can
    probably answer those.

>1) Does the line need 2 "B" channels ?
    
    If the question is, will it work with the 1B+D services offered in some
    areas, the answer is a qualified yes.  We haven't tested it on a line
    like this, but it should work.
    
    If the question is can I use the other B channel for a phone/fax/etc
    the answer is yes; proper configuration is required to avoid clashes!
    
>2) Does the equipment require 2 directory numbers for each "B" channel ?
    
    No.  On switches that use directory numbers, you need only program in 1
    directory number (a second is optional).  That number is not tied in
    any way to a B channel, though!  If a call comes in to the number you
    have set in the RouteAbout, it will accept it regardless of the B
    channel.
    
>3) Does the equipment require both voice and data capabilities ?
    
    No, it is data only.
