Are KX-TD programs #423 #427 #428 #429 focused on the S/T bus interaction between the KX-TD and the LEC? Or do you think that the KX-TD systems can drive an ISDN telephone on one of the extensions? > >> Well, I wonder who does have experience installing KX-TD with ISDN-BRI or >> ISDN-PRI (T1)? > >There isn't PRI support in the North American varient of the KX-TD. >Since they have both BRI support and T1 support, they *ought* to be >able to whack in support for the PRI. But currently that is unsupported. >(Well, it could be in the -5 software, but I'd bet not.) Hmmm. I am going to surpress comments until I read the IDSN-BRI standard to understand what KX-TD supports under the T1 connection, and what they do not support of the ISDN-BRI standard. <ignorant_thought> I guess that I thought of T1 of being more of a physical / link / network layer specification, and ISDN-BRI as more of a transport / session / presentation / application layer specification </ignorant_thought>. > >> Combining the variations of LEC's, switch hardware, and geography, might >> cause every installation to be a new learning experience for the installer. > >Yes, probably so.

Maybe one could purchase a document from Bellcore (or whatever they are called these days)? The document might be cheaper than the time wasted trying to achieve a mind meld with the LEC ordering representative. Paul H.
