use of a D4 Carrier System and if required, a SLC Carrier System. The |
T-Carrier trunks serve for short haul transmissions while long haul |
transmissions are served by digital microwave radio and other digital systems. |
If the NCTE interface is used with customer premises equipment, a miniature |
8-position series jack is used to connect the NCTE to other equipment. The |
jack pins are paired off; data transmit pair, data receive pair, a voice pair, |
and a mode switch pair. The data pairs support the simultaneous transmission |
and reception of digital data in a bipolar format at 56 kb/s. The data pairs |
also provide for the xmission of control information to and from the network. |
The voice pairs supports analog signal transmission and provides for call |
setup, disconnect and ringing functions. The mode control pair provides |
signals to the network when a change in mode (voice to data/data to voice) is |
requested by the customer. |
A CSDC call is originated over a 2-wire loop which can also be used for |
Message Telecommunication Service (MTS) calls. Lines may be marked (MTS/CSDC |
or CSDC only). Touch tone is needed to originate a CSDC call. Originations may |
be initiated manually or with Automatic Calling Equipment (ACE) if available. |
Digit reception, transmission and signalling follow the same procedures used |
for a MTS outgoing call on CCIS or non-CCIS trunks. However CSDC calls are |
ALWAYS routed over digital transmission facilities. |
The long term plan also allows for EA-MF (Equal Access-Multi Frequency) |
signalling and improved automatic message accounting (AMA) records. A CSDC |
call is screened to ensure that the originating party has CSDC service and |
that the carrier to be used provides 56 kb/s voice/data capability. A blocked |
call is routed to a special service error announcement. Non-CSDC calls are not |
allowed to route over CSDC-only carriers. Non-payer screening is not allowed |
for CSDC calls using CCIS signalling. |
A CSDC call is routed directed to the carrier or indirectly via the Access |
Tandem (AT) or Signal Conversion Point (SCP). The call is terminated directly |
from the carrier to the end office or indirectly via the AT or SCP. Signalling |
for direct routing is either CCIS or EA-MF and is assigned on a trunk group |
basis. |
The AT is an ESS switch which allows access to carriers from an end office |
without requiring direct trunks. Signalling between end offices and the AT is |
either EA-MF or CCIS. Trunks groups using EA-MF signalling can have combined |
carrier traffic. Separate trunk groups for each carrier are required for CCIS |
signalling. |
The SCP is an ESS switch which allows access to carriers using only CCIS |
signalling from offices without the CCIS capability. Separate trunk groups for |
each carrier are used between the originating end office and the SCP. Separate |
trunk groups are optional between the SCP and the terminating end office and |
the terminating end office. Signalling between the end office and the SCP is |
MF. The SCP must have direct connection to the carrier using CCIS signalling. |
========================= |
=Remote Switching System= |
========================= |
The RSS can be used as a remote access point for CSDC. The compatibility of |
RSS and CSDC improves the marketability of both features. The RSS design |
allows a provision for the support of D4 special service channel bank |
plug-ins. This provision allows for such applications as off premises |
extensions, foreign exchanges lines, and private lines. Thus the RSS can be |
used as a CSDC access point in a configuration similar to the CSDC RX |
arrangement. |
================ |
=Centrex/ESSX-1= |
================ |
The CSDC feature is optionally available to Centrex/ESSX-1 customers. Most of |
the capabilities of Centrex service can be applied to Centrex lines that have |
been assigned the CSDC feature. In voice mode, the Centrex/CSDC line can |
exercise any of the Centrex group features that have been assigned to the |
line. In the voice/data mode, several Centrex features are inoperable or |
operate only on certain calls. The CSDC feature can be provided for a Centrex |
group as follows: |
1. Message Network Basis (MTS) |
2. IntraCentrex group basis |
3. InterCentrex group basis |
4. Any combination of the above |
=============================== |
=User Perspective for the CSDC= |
=============================== |
To establish a CSDC call, a CSDC user goes off hook, receives dial tone and |
dials. The dialing format for the CSDC/MTS is as follows for interim plan: |
#99 AB (1+) 7 or 10 digits (#) |
The customer dials '#99' to access the CSDC feature. The 'AB' digits are the |
carrier designation code. No dial tone is returned after the 'AB' digits. The |
1+ prior to the 7 or 10 digit directory number must be used if it is required |
for MTS calls. The '#' at the end is optional, if it is not dialed, end of |
dialing is signalled by a time-out. |
The long term dialing format for the CSDC/MTS is as follows: |
#56 (10XXX) (1+) 7 or 10 digits (#) |
