Private Networking Features

Multimedia multiple-port network

In R6, the expansion to multiple-port networks required a distinction between G3r and G3si. For G3r, R6 supports the equivalent of 580 Basic mode complexes operating at 6CCS traffic level. All enhanced mode complexes operate with soft-mode service links since the use of hard-mode service links reduces capac- ities. G3si limits are 1/3 to 1/2 of the G3r limits, depending on memory limitations and port network limitations.

Call Detail Recording (CDR)

The service-link architecture provides for conversion between one or more data calls and a multimedia or voice-only call. For calls originating from a data end- point or trunk, the service-link calls terminate on a meet-me user representing the actual voice or multimedia user to whom the call is routed. For calls originating from a voice or multimedia user, the service link calls are originated from a meet-me user representing the originator. On the multimedia or voice-only side, the data endpoint or trunk is represented by a “multimedia” user.

CDR for Service-Link Calls

Separate CDR records are generated for each data call comprising a service link.

Private Networking Features

The great expandability of DEFINITY ECS makes it a logical choice for setting up private networks. Consequently, the system includes many private networking features.

Centralized Attendant Service

Enables attendant services in a private network to be concentrated at a central location. Each branch in a Centralized Attendant Service has its own listed direc- tory number or other type of access from the public network. Incoming calls to the branch, as well as calls made by users directly to the attendants, are routed to the centralized attendants over release link trunks.

Distributed Communications System

Distributed Communications System (DCS) allows you to configure 2 or more switches as if they were a single, large DEFINITY ECS. DCS provides attendant and voice-terminal features between these switch locations. DCS simplifies dial- ing procedures and allows transparent use of some of the DEFINITY ECS fea- tures. (Feature transparency means that features are available to all users on DCS regardless of the switch location.)
