DS0 Wholesale Local Platform Service – 2 Wire ISDN BRI
digital loop, a DSO facility, directly into an ISDN digital switch port. These ports can only be used for DS0 terminations on the line side of the switch. This DS0 Wholesale Local Platform Service offering will be limited to the above arrangement.
DS0 Wholesale Local Platform Service – 2-Wire ISDN/BRI provides the Basic Rate Interface for ISDN service at the point of demarcation. BRI provides the end user access of up to two 64 Kbps (B) channels and one 16 Kbps (D) channel per exchange access line.
The D channel carries the out-of-band signaling information associated with the B and D channels.
B channel circuit switched services offer up to 64 Kbps intra-office transmission of voice or data. This permits the end user to use circuit switched voice or data transmission paths on a per call selection basis. Transmission on the B channel will be circuit switched at 64 Kbps within the switch and/or equipped facilities between ISDN compatible central offices.
ISDN interconnection to non-ISDN equipped central offices is potentially subjected to analog transmission or sub-rated to 56 Kbps. Each Access to a B channel for Circuit Switched Voice/Circuit Switched Data (CSV/CSD) includes one directory number (DN).
The following are set parameters for B channel and D channel Switched Services:
•Each B channel terminal will be provided logical channels up to the technical capability of the serving central office.
•Each logical channel can carry an independent call with throughput of up to 64 Kbps.
•Each D channel terminal will be provided logical channels up to the technical capabilities of the serving central office.
The 2-wire digital loop is a dedicated digital transmission facility from the end-user to the BellSouth switch. System Signaling 7 (SS7) or Multi-Frequency (MF) protocol may be utilized across the network. The facility allows the end user to send and receive circuit switched voice and circuit switched data telecommunications traffic. The DS0 2-Wire Digital Port is a dial-up facility that provides signaling features, functions and capabilities of the line side termination of the switch, hunting, and access to other services such as E911, PIC/LPIC options and routing.
The Selected Carrier Routing option, if chosen, allows the CLEC to route its end users’ calls to the CLEC’s own Operator Services platform or its Business Office. The port also includes switching functionality, which determines where the call needs to be terminated, and routes it onto the interoffice transport-shared portion of the network. Calls that can be carried on these services include: local 10 digit, Operator, Credit Card 0+ InterLATA toll, Credit Card 0+ intraLATA toll, 1+ InterLATA toll, 1+ intraLATA toll, Local Directory Assistance, Long Distance Directory Assistance, 1+800 Inter- and intraLATA, and 1+900.
Usage data is available via CLEC subscription to Access Daily Usage File (ADUF) and Optional Daily Usage File (ODUF). To receive ADUF messages, CLEC must have Network Data Mover (NDM) software, which is available from BellSouth.
