Introduction • 1-1 • 1.0 Introduction The Infinity Series H.110 Basic Rate Interface ISDN Board is designed to provide thirty-two Basic Rate ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) interfaces connected to the H.110 bus on a board with the CompactPCI bus form factor. Each interface or port provides a D channel for call control signaling and two 64 kbps.
Page 14: The Physical Interface
• 1-2 • Introduction Figure 1: The H.110 Basic Rate ISDN Board Functional Areas 1.1.1 The Physical Interface Thirty-two independent ports are provided on the board. Each port on the board provides a complete S/T Basic Rate ISDN interface. This interface can be configured under software control as either a piece of terminal equipment to interface to a central office or PBX, or as a network termination to interface to terminal equipment such as ISDN phone sets or...
Page 15: Signaling Protocols
Introduction • 1-3 • Each port provides two independent B1 channels which operate at 64 kbps. These channels can be switched to the H.110 bus, to each other, or to one of the DSP resources. In addition, there is a 16 kbps D channel which is used for signaling.
Page 16: Clock Modes
• 1-4 • Introduction would end the “bus wars” between the various legacy busses such as the SCbus and the MVIP bus. PCM is a standard method of digitizing phone signals. It involves encoding each channel at an 8 kHz rate using eight bits. The signals from multiple channels are then combined into a frame.
