Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN)

A bipolar coding method that does not allow more than 3 consecutive zeros.

The HDLC protocol secures information in a data frame that allows devices to control data flow and correct errors. For any HDLC communications session, one station is designated primary and the other secondary.

Each individual short trip that packets make from router to router, as they are routed to their destination is a Hop.

A computer that allows users to communicate with other host computers on a network.

In a redundant DS3 controller setup, the standby controller can be in two states, the hot-standby signifies that the card is ready to take over for the active and the switch will not affect service. Also see cold-standby.

A common connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports.

Internet Protocol

A technology offered by telephone carriers that allows for the rapid transfer of voice and data. ISDN supports data transfer rates of 64 Kbps (64,000 bits per second). Most ISDN lines offered by telephone companies give you two lines at once, called B channels. You can use one line for voice and the other for data, or you can use both lines for data to give you data rates of 128 Kbps, slightly more than 2 times the data rate provided by today’s fastest modems.
