Unit overview
Bringing a number of techniques together, this unit develops the concept of the digital network. The digital telephone exchange is explored at the different levels of a typical hierarchical architecture, highlighting the differences at each level. Both service provision, and control of those services via signalling are looked at - before it is all brought together in the ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) concept.

What you will learn
By the end of this course you will be able to:
•Discuss the role of different types of digital telephone exchanges that are found in circuit-switched networks
•Develop a list of typical services provided via a digital telecommunications network – including a range of standard and value-added services
•Illustrate using a ladder diagram (or similar) the sequence of signalling (in the access network) that would be used to control a simple telephone call
•Describe the different interfaces and services provided as part of the ISDN
