| isdn bri for broadcast- will it work for internet also
Hi, as some here may know, ISDN-BRI circuits are used for broadcast audio transmission at 128k by way of having a codec/transceiver between two studios (radio stations etc).
I have been operating with a "Switched 56" circuit for this
(I do voiceovers and connect with ISDN-equpped production companies to send/receive full-bandwidth audio in real-time).
I'm going to relocate my studio to a small office space where I can install an ISDN-BRI circuit. I also need high-speed internet...but not simultaneously. Question is, can I use
an ISDN-BRI circuit for high-speed-internet access, or does that require a different 'brand' of ISDN?
Thanks for any help!

Leander, TX | BRI is the standard ISDN. You won't have any problems with the BRI for Internet usage. |

If it is a switched circuit yes, if it is a point to point circuit then the answer is no.
Broadcasters use two different types of BRI circuits, one is a dial-up type of circuit where the codec “dials” into a matching BRI at the receiving end of the programming, the other is nailed up circuit that is always on with the receiving end.
If you have a dial-up BRI, then yes it can be used for Internet access with an ISDN compatible Internet service provider, once you have established an account with them.

If your calling the phone company and you want isdn you should be fine using it for internet....ive never heard of a point to point isdn line...i know their are point to point t1 and ds3 e.t.c.. isdn requires a connection with a circuit switch at&t 5ess or a Nortel Dms 100...the problem with isdn with the big phone companies ie Verizon, Qwest, AT&T, FairPoint is that your charged up the ass ..i have one currently with Verizon/Fairpoint and the charges suck....i just keep it because its hard to order now...and their are most certainly per minute charges....If you go with a CLEC your much better off. |

| said by erikthebean  :ive never heard of a point to point isdn line... There are numerous types of ISDN circuits. The most common is the circuit switched which is provided out of a Central Office (CO) switch, with this type of circuit a connection is “dialed” up in the same manner as a regular telephone call. There is also a point to point circuit which while provided from a CO switch is not dialup up nor is it assigned SPIDS, the connection is nailed up between two switch ports and sometimes involves two separate switches in two different CO’s. The third type is a point to point circuit that doesn’t touch a switch (excepting sideported intergrated subscriber loop carrier (SLC)), this circuit is served out of a CO or remote channel bank and is mapped through a carrier to the other end.
The third type of P2P ISDN is commonly used in broadcasting for studio to transmitter links and studio to remote studio links.
