ISDN components
The components required for ISDN service over the
satellite network are listed below:
•
Euro ISDN terminal adapter or router
•
Euro ISDN line
•
ISDN Service Provider account
•
Computer
•
Dial-up Networking capabilities
•
Web browser
The three main components required for ISDN service
(terminal adapters, ISDN lines, and ISDN protocols) are
described in the following sections.
Although routers are also an interface option, only an
example set-up using a terminal adapter is described in this
User’s Guide.
Terminal adapters—ISDN devices
Terminal adapters are ISDN devices that function similarly
to a modem.; they dial and answers calls, and receive and
transmit data.
Use a Euro S/T ISDN model terminal adapter with the HSD
Aeronautical Transceiver. Inmarsat Swift64 service and the
HSD Aeronautical Transceivers do not support the North
American ISDN variant.
ISDN protocols
Terminal adapters use ISDN protocols to format data
between the ISDN line and the user’s computer.
HSD Transceivers support all ISDN protocols that run over
a B channel on an ISDN line. These protocols are
implemented and configured through the user’s operating
system.
