ISDN applications

ISDN terminal equipment delivers a wide range of powerful business
applications:

Videoconferencing and video telephony

Videoconferencing offers instant visual and audio contact between distant
parties using either studio-based or desktop ISDN terminals.

Desktop conferencing

ISDN allows computer users in distant locations to share and edit any
image, data or text file on their own computer screens while they discuss
the information.

File transfer

The ISDN network allows you to transfer files containing data, text,
images, data, or audio clips, faster and cheaper than with a conventional
modem.

Telecommuting

Convenient retrieval, processing and storage of files is possible for the
employee working at home by using ISDN lines to give high-speed access
to information resources at the office.

Group 4 fax

ISDN fax applications save money by increasing both transmission speed
and the quality of resolution.

Remote LAN access

ISDN provides an affordable and fast means for employees at remote sites
(at home or branch offices) to access local area networks (LANs).
