BRI-line signals must be translated into signals your computer can
understand. Several devices must be in place to perform the translation.

How Does the I-modem Fit In?
The I-modem needs an NT-1 device to work with ISDN. If you currently
use an NT-1 device, you can use the S/T-interface I-modem.
This version of I-modem
U-Interface Integrated NT-1
S/T-Interface
2-4
Is a device
That does not have built-in ISDN capability.
TE2s require Terminal Adapters (TAs),
such as the I-modem, to communicate over
the ISDN. Example: Computer.
That translates between non-ISDN signaling
that TE2s provide (such as EIA-232) and the
S/T-interface signaling that the NT-1
understands.
That ranslates between the short-distance
signaling used at the S/T-interface and the
longer-distance signaling used at the
U-interface. NT-1s also convert from the
two wires used for the phone line to the six
or eight wires needed for the S/T bus.
Allows the I-modem to connect
Directly to the U-interface
To an external NT-1 device (you must
have an NT-1 device)
