3. Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Service. Intrastate ISDN integrates voice, data, and video communications services via standard interfaces.
3.1 Primary Rate Interface (PRI). Through Intrastate PRI, a Customer can share access facilities among the following Intrastate Long Distance Voice Services: outbound service and inbound toll-free service. An attribute of PRI, Call-by-Call Service Configuration, allows for these services to share dynamically allocated individual circuits within the PRI. Intrastate Private Line Service is also available with the above combinations.
The PRI consists of a 64 kbps D channel and 23 B channels of 64 kbps each. The bearer, or B, channels are used to access MCI Legacy Company services supported over the PRI. The D channels are used to carry signaling and control information for the associated B channels.
In addition to providing basic access to the services specified above, the PRI interface can be configured to support the following advanced ISDN features: Call‑by‑Call Service Configuration, Non‑Facility Associated Signaling, D‑Channel Backup, Automatic Number Identification (ANI), Dialed Number identification Service (DNIS) and, for outbound service with Feature Option C-1, Calling Station Identification (CSI). Call‑by‑Call Service Configuration allows the B channels of a PRI to be shared between multiple services carried on the PRI. With Non‑Facility Associated Signaling, one PRI D channel can control up to a maximum of 20 T‑1 Digital Access channels. D Channel Backup provides a redundant hot stand‑by of the PRIs primary D Channel. Automatic Number Identification (ANI) allows a Customer to receive the originating caller's working telephone number provided this information is forwarded to the MCI Legacy Company by the caller's Local Exchange Carrier (LEC). DNIS provides the called party with the number dialed by the Customer or a translated version of the dialed number. The delivery of ANI and DNIS is ordered along with outbound service with Feature Option C-1. CSI is provided to intrastate Customers outbound service with Feature Option C-1 who order PRI. Intrastate T-1 Digital Access is required to obtain intrastate ISDN PRI. Each time a change in the number of Private Line DS0s is required, a PRI reconfiguration charge will be assessed.
