Network Termination

ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) utilizes network termination devices to connect customer premises equipment (CPE) to the network.

There are two primary types:

  • NT1 (Network Termination 1): Interfaces directly with the network, converting between BRI (Basic Rate Interface) signals and digital signals suitable for the local loop.

  • NT2 (Network Termination 2): Functions at a higher layer, managing multiple data channels and often includes routing, multiplexing, and switching functionalities.

These devices ensure proper signal transmission and network connectivity for ISDN services.
