Technical Description of TANDBERG Gateway with software version G2

4.1.2PRI E1/T1 ISDN

4.1.2.1 ISDN number plan

The TANDBERG Gateway’s PRI lines may use one or more numbers for dial in. If more than one number is used, the numbers must be consecutive.

4.1.2.2 PRI Trunk Grouping

When using more than one PRI line, the same properties for PRI 1 can be used for all PRI's by defining them all as a trunk group.

4.1.2.3 PRI E1/T1 ISDN

The PRI interface may require an external CSU depending on the network layout. ‘Cable Length’ in the PRI set-up menu specifies the distance from the TANDBERG Gateway to the CSU or last repeater.

A CSU is not required if the system is within 200 m (655 ft) of the last repeater.

The TANDBERG Gateway supports the PRI protocols AT&T Custom, National ISDN and ETSI (Euro ISDN). The AT&T and National protocols will give a total of (23*4) = 92 channels while the ETSI protocol will give a total of (30*4) = 120 channels.

Within these protocols the following switches are supported:

Channel hunting is provided for outgoing calls. This feature is normally used when the number of channels needs to be specified. When no value is specified for low or high channel, they default to 1 (low), 23 (high US) and 30 (high Europe). Default search is from high to low.
