Hi,
        clarification, u-Law is the PCM compression or coding used in NA,
A-law rest of world.  That is the speech is turned into a digital PCM signal
by the CO using one of the above before being put onto one of the channels
of the 24 channels of a T1 or I think 30 of the 32 channels of an E1 trunk.
E1 has 2 channels for signaling and T1 a  lot of messing about for
signaling.

                Regards Ian.
