ORDERING ISDN SERVICE

This appendix describes how to order ISDN service. Refer to the appropriate section.

■If you are ordering ISDN for the first time, refer to “If You Place Your ISDN Order Through 3Com” to have 3Com order ISDN service for you, free of charge.

■To call your telephone company and order ISDN yourself, refer to “If You Place Your ISDN Order Through the Telephone Company.”

■If you already have ISDN, refer to “What If I Already Have ISDN Service?”.

for the latest information.

If You Place Your ISDN Simply call 1-800-343-3266 to have your ISDN line ordered for you. 3Com’s Order Through 3Com SupernetAccess service will provide the appropriate line parameters to your

telephone company and schedule installation of your ISDN line wherever possible. Be sure to ask for the order code or order confirmation number.

If You Place Your ISDN To simplify the many features available for ISDN, Bellcore has created several

Order Through the packages, called ISDN Ordering Codes (IOC), for choosing an ISDN line

Telephone Company configuration that best fits your needs. Of these packages, 3Com has two recommendations, each of which allows you to take the fullest advantage of the supplementary voice features supported by the ISDN LAN Modem. The ISDN LAN Modem has completed the ISDN Ordering Codes Translations Review and is registered with EZ-ISDN 1 and EZ-ISDN 1A.

Your choice will depend on whether or not you want Voice Mail capability on your line:

■For ISDN without Voice Mail, 3Com recommends Capability Package U or

EZ-ISDN 1.

■For ISDN with Voice Mail, 3Com recommends Capability Package V or

EZ-ISDN 1A.

For a complete explanation of these Capability Packages, the specific supplementary services included with each, and certain limitations in their coverage which relate to the ISDN LAN Modem, refer to the two sections, “Supplementary Voice Features Included with U, EZ-ISDN-1, V and EZ-ISDN 1A” and “Limitations of ISDN Ordering Codes U, EZ-ISDN 1, V and EZ-ISDN 1A.”
