Basic Rate Interface (BRI)
ISDN BRI connects data terminals and telephones to
public network switches, such as those used by local
telephone companies, or private network switches,
like the Meridian 1. ISDN BRI implementation into
Meridian 1 software is in accordance with relevant
CCITT standards at the physical, data link and
network layers of the International Standards
Organisation's Open Systems Interconnect model.
Feature activation is supported using CCITT-defined
supplemental service elements. In addition, National
ISDN support is provided, including the
supplementary services "Conference" and "Call
Forward All Calls".
