BRI hardware
The loops on the BRI module can be programmed to support either network or terminal
connections. This allows you to customize your arrangement of lines, voice terminals, data
terminals and other ISDN equipment. This section describes some basic hardware configurations
for network and terminal connections for each loop type.
A BRI module provides four loops. Each loop can be individually programmed as:
• an S reference point connection (S loop) to ISDN terminal equipment (TE), or
• a T or S reference point connection (T loop or S loop) to an ISDN network using an
external NT1
S Reference Point
The S reference point connection provides either a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint digital
connection between BCM and ISDN terminal equipment (TE) that uses an S interface. Refer to
Figure 227.
S loops support up to seven ISDN DNs, which identify TE to the BCM system.
Figure 227 S reference point
T Reference Points
The T reference point connections provide a point-to-point digital connection between the ISDN
network and BCM. Refer to Figure 228.
A T loop provides lines that can be shared by all BCM telephones, peripherals and applications,
and ISDN TE.
