DS1 Switched 56 Service is an end-to-end digital,
56-kbps, full duplex, synchronous, circuit-switched service
offering. The service is offered by network service
providers and by some Local Exchange Carriers (LECs)
as circuit-switched, 56-kbps service.T1-emulated tandem
tie trunks in a private network can be programmed for
data.
Momentary (320 ms to 1 second) on-hook signal used as
a control; may be directed to the control unit or to a host
switch outside the system. Also called "Recall" or "timed

of the trunk. Switch identifiers are based on the type of
system and its distance from the system where the
identifier is assigned. See also satellite system and
non-satellite system .
Method of transmitting a continuous digital data stream in
which the transmission of each binary bit is synchronized
with a master clock. See also asynchronous data
