Chapter 1. Understanding ISDN and the ISU 2x64
The ISU 2x64 allows the user to migrate ISDN into existing net- work services and data communications equipment. The ISU 2x64 interoperates with ISU 128s, Switched 56 DSUs, various ISDN terminal adapters, and BONDING inverse multiplexers (for example ASCEND®, PROMPTUS, and Teleos®). For instance, in a video conferencing application, this compatibility allows the ISU 2x64 to interoperate with networks utilizing two Switched 56 DSUs.
