  2. T-carrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-carrier

    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.

  3. Channel bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_bank

    A T1 feed demultiplexed through a Newbridge channel bank to 24 channels with an Amphenol connector. In telecommunications, a channel bank is a device that performs multiplexing or demultiplexing ("demux") of a group of communications channels, such as analog or digital telephone lines, into one channel of higher bandwidth or higher digital bit rate, such as a DS-1 (T1) circuit, so that all the ...

  4. Superframe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superframe

    In the 1970s it replaced the original T1/D1 framing scheme of the 1960s in which the framing bit simply alternated between 0 and 1. Superframe is sometimes called D4 Framing to avoid confusion with single-frequency signaling. It was first supported by the D2 channel bank, but it was first widely deployed with the D4 channel bank.

  5. Digital Signal 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Signal_1

    Digital Signal 1 (DS1, sometimes DS-1) is a T-carrier signaling scheme devised by Bell Labs. [1] DS1 is the primary digital telephone standard used in the United States, Canada and Japan and is able to transmit up to 24 multiplexed voice and data calls over telephone lines.

  6. Time-division multiplexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-division_multiplexing

    A channel bank at each end of the line allowed the single line to carry short portions, each 1 ⁄ 8000 of a second, of up to 24 voice calls, in turn. The discrete signals on the trunk line carried 1.544 Mbit/s divided into 8000 separate frames per second, each composed of 24 contiguous octets and one framing bit.

  7. CSU/DSU - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CSU/DSU

    A CSU/DSU (channel service unit/data service unit) is a digital-interface device used to connect data terminal equipment (DTE), such as a router, to a digital circuit, such as a Digital Signal 1 (DS1) T1 line. The CSU/DSU implements two different functions.

  8. Primary Rate Interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_Rate_Interface

    The T1 line consists of 23 bearer (B) channels and one data (D) channel for control purposes, [1] for a total bandwidth of 24x64-kbit/s or 1.544 Mbit/s. The E1 carrier provides 30 B- and one D-channel for a bandwidth of 2.048 Mbit/s. [2] The first timeslot on the E1 is used for synchronization purposes and is not considered to be a B- or D ...

  9. Non-Facility Associated Signalling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Facility_Associated...

    The solution is D channel backup where a second D channel is configured on another trunk. In the event of failure the backup D channel takes over the signaling. So the final configuration is 478B + D + D-backup. NFAS is a cost-cutting measure. Customers ordering a Primary Rate ISDN service will be charged for each signaling channel. Therefore ...
