TBRI-PT (ISDN Trunk-Side BRI Port)
S8700 | 8710 / S8500 / S8300
This document describes the port maintenance features of the TN2185 Trunk-Side ISDN-BRI
board. The circuit pack provides 8 S/T ISDN 2B+D ports that interface to either the central office
or another PBX.
The TN2185 circuit pack contains eight, 4-wire ports that interface to the network at the ISDN S/
T reference point over two 64-kbps channels (B1 and B2) and over a 16-kbps signaling (D)
channel. The B1 and B2 channels can be simultaneously circuit-switched, or individually
packet-switched. Only one channel per trunk can be packet-switched due to PPE (Packet
Processing Element) limitations. The D channel is either circuit- or packet-switched. Packet
switching uses the PPE to combine all D channels into a single physical channel, which is then
routed via the concentration highway to the NCE (Network Control Element) and then to the
TDM bus. The circuit-switched connections have a Mu-law or A-law option for voice and
operate as 64-kbps clear data channels. The packet-switched channels support the LAPD
protocol and conform with the CCITT Q.920 Recommendations for D-channel signaling.
Note:
Note: S8300 / G700: Although the TBRI-PT MO is provided for a G700 media gateway,
this MO only partially supports the G700’s MM720 BRI media module.
LEDs
The three LEDs on the circuit pack’s faceplate indicate a board’s status. When illuminated, the
red LED indicates a board failure or a major or minor on-board alarm. The green LED indicates
that testing is in progress. The amber LED indicates that the board is in use.
