Voice Services: ISDN PRI Services

TELUS ISDN PRI (Integrated Services Digital Network Primary Rate Interface) service offers integrated access to voice, data and video. ISDN PRI supports increased demand for capacity by connecting equipment to deliver mission-critical activities - PBXs, remote access concentrators, modem pools - to the public telephone system. This enables service providers to offer a reliable solution to end customer demand for voice and data communications as well as:

• 10 -25% increase in trunking efficiency
• Reductions in hardware costs
• Increased connection reliability
• Speeds of up to DS 1

Whether it is transmitting large data file, managing an around-the-clock private voice network or extending reach, TELUS ISDN PRI provides a cost-effective and flexible solution. Allocation of channels on a call-by-call basis improves trunking efficiency. As well, one digital trunk card can replace up to 24 analog trucks, reducing hardware requirements. ISDN Signalling delivers virtually instantaneous connection time and ensures access lines are not tied up waiting for calls to connect.

As demand for capacity increases, TELUS ISDN PRI can economically and efficiently combine channels "on demand" to deliver higher bandwidth. Standard advanced features include Calling Line ID and Dialled Number Identification. Our experienced network designers will optimize PRI installation to provide the most effective and cost-efficient configuration to meet each customer's specific need.

TELUS ISP PRI service

TELUS ISP PRI is a subset of TELUS ISDN PRI service that targets the specific needs of Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in providing access to their customers, with one-way incoming data-only connections. These incoming data-only connections originate from analog modems, switched 56 Kbps services or ISDN services. The benefit is lower cost compared to regular ISDN PRI, or equivalent number of Centrex lines, all with one integrated DS 1 access.
