ISDN Connection
From the network, ISDN is delivered by a single 2-wire 2B1Q U-interface 
which is connected directly to the  Express L128/L128T.  ISDN network termi-
nation is designed into the Express L128/L128T, eliminating the need and ex-
pense of a separate NT1.  For network testing, the Express L128/L128T 
responds to NT1 test commands from the telephone company central office 
(CO).
The Express L128/L128T has one RJ-45 jack, labeled ISDN, on the rear panel 
for network connection (see Figure 1-7).  ISDN basic rate service divides a stan-
dard telephone line into three digital channels capable of simultaneous voice 
and data transmission.  The three channels are comprised of two bearer (B) 
channels at 64 kbps and one data (D) channel at 16 kbps, known as 2B+D.  
The  Express L128/L128T also supports a leased digital connection allowing 
data to be transferred at up to 144 kbps over a 2-wire facility using the same 
RJ-45 jack.  This type of service is a permanent connection between endpoints 
and is sometimes referred to as a leased connection, a dedicated connection, a 
nailed-up connection, or a private circuit.  Leased connection or leased line is 
used in this manual to represent these types of services.
