    Applications Voice Modules 2.2.4 Voice Channel Bank Application This is the simplest application which can be used by a service provider. The Integrated Access System is used in this configuration when one or more digital T1/E1 trunks are needed to interface with analog PBXs or key systems at the customer premises. In the US, the break-even point for bringing in a T1 trunk as opposed to multiple analog lines is typically 6 analog lines.

TR008 supports traditional POTS, CLASS, and Coin services but does not support ISDN BRI. If the service provider deploys a channel bank at the customer premise that does not provide TR008 capability then it needs a 1/0 DCS with TR008 capability at the central office to integrate with the LDS.
