CAS Protocol

 

E&M Immed Strt

Channel Associated Signaling

 

 

 

 

E&M Wink Start

(CAS) is a method of

 

 

 

 

E&M Wink with

incorporating telephony

 

 

 

 

dial tone

signaling info into a T1

 

 

 

 

FXO Ground Strt

voice/data stream. In CAS, the

 

 

 

 

signaling bits (the A, B, C, and

 

 

 

 

FXO Loop Start

 

 

 

 

D bits) are multiplexed into the

 

 

 

 

FXS Ground Strt

 

 

 

 

signal stream of each T1

 

 

 

 

FXS Loop Start

 

 

 

 

channel. (By contrast, in

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Common Channel Signaling

 

 

 

 

 

(CCS), one channel handles

 

 

 

 

 

signaling for all other channels.)

 

 

 

 

 

Each CAS protocol defines the

 

 

 

 

 

states of the signaling bits

 

 

 

 

 

during the various stages of a

 

 

 

 

 

call (IDLE, SEIZED, ANSWER,

 

 

 

 

 

RING-ON, RING-OFF).

 

 

 

 

 

The CAS protocol code allows

 

 

 

 

 

the VOIP to interact properly

 

 

 

 

 

with the PBX or central-office

 

 

 

 

 

switch that it serves. The need

 

 

 

 

 

to download CAS protocols

 

 

 

 

 

arises for only a small minority

 

 

 

 

 

of VOIP users, and only when

 

 

 

 

 

PBX/switch is found to be

 

 

 

 

 

incompatible with standard

 

 

 

 

 

protocols.

 

 

 

 

 

Match this parameter to the

 

 

 

 

 

setting of PBX or central-office

 

 

 

 

 

switch.
