  • Page 15: Chapter 4: Overview

    In an Avaya Communication Server 1000 (Avaya CS 1000) and Meridian 1 network, the Electronic Switched Network (ESN) node switches collect all digits of the called number and pass the full-called number between switches.
  • Page 16: Switch Designations

    The outgoing routes can be assigned different access codes, leaving route selection to the end user. Outgoing routes can also be selected by an automatic route selection capability. Electronic Switched Network Reference — Signaling and Transmission August 2011 Comments? infodev@avaya.com...
  • Page 17: Tributary Switch

    Supervision Tributary switch A tributary switch is a circuit switch that has a trunk route to a main circuit switch, but not to a node. A tributary circuit switch can have CO, FX, and WATS trunks, as well as TIE Trunks to other switches.
  • Page 18: Modes Of Operation

    NARS digit manipulation. The end user does not receive call progress tones until all digits are transmitted. Electronic Switched Network Reference — Signaling and Transmission August 2011 Comments? infodev@avaya.com...
  • Page 19: Start Dial Control

    Start dial control No tones are provided during dialing other than a locally-generated dial tone following the trunk access code. Senderized mode limits flexibility. The main circuit switch must be programmed to determine how many digits to collect before forwarding those digits to the node. Usually, no more than 12 digits can be collected and forwarded.
  • Page 20: Delay Dial

    Normally, only one start dial control is used. However, on some switches, a dial tone may be combined with any of the other three. System switches in an ESN network can work with any start dial signal. Electronic Switched Network Reference — Signaling and Transmission August 2011 Comments? infodev@avaya.com...

    Case 3: Calls From stations at a senderized main circuit switch This case describes calls from stations at a senderized main circuit switch to an ESN node: Electronic Switched Network Reference — Signaling and Transmission August 2011 Comments? infodev@avaya.com...
  • Page 23: Case 4: Calls From A Cut-Through Tributary Circuit Switch

    Calls to the ESN node 1. The caller goes off-hook, receives a dial tone, dials the ESN access code, receives a second dial tone from the main circuit switch, and then dials the desired number. 2. The senderized main circuit switch does not seize a TIE Trunk to the node after receiving the access code.
  • Page 24: Case 6: Calls From Main Senderized And Tributary Senderized Circuit Switches

    4. To reach a PSTN telephone by the tributary circuit switch, the node outpulses an access code for the main to tributary TIE Trunk, followed by the access code to the CO trunk, followed by the PSTN number. Electronic Switched Network Reference — Signaling and Transmission August 2011 Comments? infodev@avaya.com...
  • Page 25: Case 1

    Call completions Case 1 This case applies to a call from an ESN node to a telephone at either a cut-through or a senderized main circuit switch: 1. The node seizes a TIE Trunk to the main circuit switch and then pauses, waiting for the main circuit switch to receive digits.

    CCSA switch. An unambiguous numbering plan encompassing both the ESN network and CSSA must be arranged. The ESN node routes calls in the CCSA numbering plan to the CCSA switch. Electronic Switched Network Reference — Signaling and Transmission August 2011 Comments? infodev@avaya.com...
  • Page 27: Requirements For Dialing Pauses

    Requirements for dialing pauses Requirements for dialing pauses When outpulsing to the main circuit switch and to a TTTN, ESN nodes are occasionally required to pause at various points in the digit string to allow for trunk access and register attachment. Failure to pause causes missed digits and calls to connect to wrong numbers or to be lost altogether.

  • Page 31: Trunk Routing Rules

    Trunk routing rules connections and two carrier facility connections, both avoided in the PSTN tandem connections. Trunk routing rules Trunk routing rules define the allowed connections between node, main, tributary, and satellite circuit switches. These routing rules are summarized in Table 1: Trunk routing rules page 31.
  • Page 32: Gain Devices

    Compensation for impedances is required for the direction sensing circuitry to function properly. Table 2: Comparison of fixed gain and voice-switched gain on page 33 compares fixed gain and voice-switched gain. Electronic Switched Network Reference — Signaling and Transmission August 2011 Comments? infodev@avaya.com...
  • Page 33: Gain With Compression

    Gain Gain with compression On some connections, signal levels may already be high, and gain may increase the levels above FCC specified limits. Some manufacturers provide compression options to guard against exceeding FCC limits. Speech compression ensures that signal levels do not exceed a specified maximum, generally –9 dBm.

    DISA, and gain is not desirable for the traffic to telephones. Instead, add a new ground-start CO trunk group and move DISA to that group. Gain units can then be provided on that group. Electronic Switched Network Reference — Signaling and Transmission August 2011 Comments? infodev@avaya.com...

    Transmission controls node-to-node routes possible in networks of various sizes. The table establishes the upper limits on the number of routes to ensure that no potential route is overlooked.

  • Page 38: Two-Trunk Tandem Routes

    For smaller networks, sort and test all three-trunk tandem routes for proper controls. For larger networks, the number of three-trunk tandem routes actually permitted is small in comparison Electronic Switched Network Reference — Signaling and Transmission August 2011 Comments? infodev@avaya.com...
  • Page 39: Off-Network Call Routing

    Off-network call routing to the number of possible routes. Therefore, the more efficient approach is to sort out the permitted routes and to consider only them. For three-trunk tandem routes, ES combinations must be considered, as well as total loss. Whenever a VNL TIE Trunk is connected with ES between two trunks, equip the VNL TIE Trunk with ES to disable intermediate echo suppressors.
