B1. Line Identification Numbers (DN’s or Directory Numbers).
These are the telephone directory numbers assigned to the line.
In the National-1 protocol there will be two numbers, each of which will be associated with one
of the line channels. These numbers have to be programmed in the PHOENIX STRATOS unit
so that it will work properly (“NUMBER LINE X” option), and thus each channel will only respond
to the number associated with it (NOTE: In the United States the identification number that must
be programmed in the terminal cannot contain the area code; it must contain only the seven
digits of the local number).
If the identification numbers are incorrectly programmed in the codec, the unit may make
outgoing calls but will not respond to incoming calls.
B2. SPID’s (Service Profile Identification Numbers).
In the case of the NATIONAL-1 protocol, in addition to the line identification numbers (DNs), you
will need to program SPIDs (Service Profile Identification Numbers) in the terminal. These are
numbers that the service provider assigns in association with each of the two line channels. If
the SPIDs are not configured correctly, the terminal will not work.
B3. Line characteristics for the USA. Line request model.
In the US, ISDN lines have many configurable parameters such as the protocol used, number of
channels, type of call accepted by the channels (analog and digital, only analog...), etc.
To ensure that the line characteristics are properly suited to their use with the PHOENIX
STRATOS codec, we recommend using the following form for requesting the line:
LINE REQUEST FORM:
We request an ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) line for an Audio Codec device.
We will provide the NT1 and need a U 2B1Q interface on a standard RJ-11 jack.
We support only the National ISDN-1 Protocol.
We need clear 64Kbps access. (56Kbps is not acceptable)
Long distance prefix (10XXX) must be enable.
Long distance carriers: MCI, AT&T, Sprint
If you use IOC Capability Packages, please use Bellcore Capability Package M. If you do not
use IOCs, use the following information:
- Two B channels.
- Circuit Switched data (CSD) and Circuit Switched Voice (CSV) on both channels
- Dynamic TEI assignment.
- No features or special services such as packed mode data on D channel, CACH EKTS, call
forwarding, hunt groups, etc.
Please provide:
- Two SPID numbers.
- Two DNs
B4. Connecting the PHOENIX STRATOS to the ISDN line.
If the interface to be used is of the U type (the most common type in the US), connect the line to
the 6-pin RJ-11 base connector marked ISDN-ANSI in the back panel, using a 6-pin modular
telephone cable (RJ-11 to RJ-11). Note that the point of connection to the U interface delivered
by the telephone company may be a 6-pin RJ-11 type base or an 8-pin RJ-45 base (the
standard accepts both types). If the connector provided is of the RJ-45 type, you can insert the
6-pin RJ-11 connector terminating the cable in the center of the 8-pin RJ-45 base.
