5ESS used in a mobile telephone network. The 5ESS Switching System is a Class 5 telephone electronic switching system developed by Western Electric for the American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T) and the Bell System in the United States. It came into service in 1982 and the last unit was produced in 2003. [1]
In telephone systems, the time between (a) the instant a circuit, i.e., off-hook condition at each end, is established between the call originator and the call receiver and (b) the instant the call originator or the call receiver terminates the call. In data transmission, the duration of the information transfer phase of an information transfer ...
At the peak of the product's life time in 1999, AT&T employed 145 4ESS switches in its long-haul network, and several were owned by various Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOCs). AT&T replaced or supplemented the 4ESS toll tandem switches with 5ESS switches , which featured an advanced design, and are used as edge switches in the network.

Like a dial tone or busy signal, the SIT is an in-band signal intended both to be heard by the caller, and to be detected by automated dialing equipment to determine a call has failed. In North America, the AT&T/Bellcore SIT standard allows the frequency and duration of the tones to vary slightly - making eight distinct messages specifically ...
The round-trip time or ping time is the time from the start of the transmission from the sending node until a response (for example an ACK packet or ping ICMP response) is received at the same node. It is affected by packet delivery time as well as the data processing delay , which depends on the load on the responding node.
AT&T, the nation’s largest carrier, has more than 240 million subscribers. More than 70,000 outages were reported after 8 a.m. ET, according to Downdetector , a website that detects outages.
The T-carrier is a hardware specification for carrying multiple time-division multiplexed (TDM) telecommunications channels over a single four-wire transmission circuit. It was developed by AT&T at Bell Laboratories ca. 1957 and first employed by 1962 for long-haul pulse-code modulation (PCM) digital voice transmission with the D1 channel bank.
