ISDN Services
Bearer Services: provide the means to transfer information between users without the network manipulating the contents of that information. Belongs to first three layers. Teleservices: the network may change or process the contents of the data. Correspond to 4-7 layers. Supplementary services: provide additional functionality to the bearer services and teleservices.
Voice and Data Communication over an Analog Telephone Network- digital processing
Integrated Service Digital Network (ISDN) IDN (Intergrated digital network)- is a combination of networks available for different purposeaccess is done through digital pipes which are time multiplexed channels sharing very high-speed lines.
B Channels: can carry any type of digital information in full duplex mode. D Channel: speed depends on the need of user. Primary function is to carry control signaling for the B channel. D channel carries the control signaling for all of the channels in a given path, using a method called common channel signaling (out band signaling).

Functional Grouping
NT1: network termination 1 device controls the physical and electrical termination of the ISDN at the users premises and connects the users internal system to the digital subscriber loop. It organizes the data stream from a connected subscriber into frames that can be sent over the digital pipe and translates the frames received from the network in to a format usable by the subscriber device. NT1 synchronizes the data stream with the frame building process in such a way that multiplexing occurs automatically. NT2: Network termination 2 performs functions at the physical, data link and the network layers. It provides+ multiplexing (layer 1), flow control (layer 2) and packetizing (layer3). It provide intermediate signal processing between the data generating devices and an NT1. NT2 is used to interface between multi-user system and NT1 in PRI. E.g. PBX Terminal Equipment 1(TE1): used by the ISDN standard to mean the same thing as DTE (Data terminating equipment) in other protocols. It refers to digital subscriber equipment or is any device that supports ISDN standards. Terminal Equipment 2 (TE2): is a non-ISDN device and requires Terminal Adapter (TA) to connect to ISDN network. Reference Point: refers to the label used to identify individual interfaces between two elements of ISDN installation. R: defines the connection between TE2 and TA. S: defines the connection between TE1 and TA. T: defines the connection between NT2 and NT1. U: defines the connection between NT1 and ISDN office.
ISDN Layers
BRI Interfaces
Defined by two ITU-T standards I.430 for BRI access and I.431 for PRI. Physical layer specification: R Interface: EIA-232, 499, 530 or any V or X series std. S Interface: ISO8887 $-6 or 8 wire connection Pseudometry encoding is used U Interface: Single pair twisted cable in each direction 2B1Q encoding used.four voltage levels More efficient use of available bandwidth

PRI Interfaces
Clustering means that propagation delay will impact the data from all devices almost equally, allowing the relationship between the data units to remain predictable for 500 meters.
