T Glossary

T1Q1

An ANSI standards sub-committee dealing with performance.

T1S1

An ANSI standards sub-committee dealing with services, architecture and signaling.

T1X1

An ANSI standards sub-committee dealing with digital hierarchy and synchronization.

TB

Transparent Bridging: An IETF bridging standard where bridge behavior is transparent to the data traffic. To avoid ambiguous routes or loops, a Spanning Tree algorithm is utilized.

TBE

Transient Buffer Exposure: A negotiated number of cells that the network would like to limit the source to sending during startup periods, before the first RM-cell returns.

TC

Transaction Capabilities: TCAP (see below) plus supporting Presentation, Session and Transport protocol layers.

TC

Transmission Convergence: The TC sublayer transforms the flow of cells into a steady flow of bits and bytes for transmission over the physical medium. On transmit, the TC sublayer maps the cells to the frame format, generates the Header Error Check (HEC), sends idle cells when the ATM layer has none to send. On reception, the TC sublayer delineates individual cells in the received bit stream, and uses the HEC to detect and correct received errors.

TCAP

Transaction Capabilities Applications Part: A connectionless SS7 protocol for the exchange of information outside the context of a call or connection. It typically runs over SCCP and MTP 3.
