T1/PRI for AltiWare OE
AltiWare OE 3.5 and higher includes the option for digital T1 or PRI
(Primary Rate Interface) functionality. Through AltiAdmin, the Triton T1/
PRI board can be configured for either T1 or PRI.
Both T1 and PRI carry 24 pulse code modulation (PCM) signals using
time-division multiplexing (TDM) at an overall rate of 1.544 Mbps. Voice
T1 provides twenty-four 64K channels with robbed bit signaling. PRI
provides twenty-three 64K channels, using one 64K channel for D channel
messaging.
Triton T1/PRI Board
The Triton T1/PRI board is used to provide voice processing resources for
AltiWare OE, similar to the way Quantum telephony boards are used for
analog trunks and extension lines. AltiWare OE uses DSP engines residing
on the Triton T1/PRI board to perform the voice processing functions
needed for either T1 or PRI service. Quantum and Triton boards are
connected via MVIP connectors.
