ISDN Speed Issues

A ISDN line has two 64Kb/s B channels and a 16Kb/s D channel. The D channel is used to communicate with the telephone company for call setup, tear down, etc. The 64Kb/s B channels carry user data.

An optimal ISDN connection consists of two 64Kb/s B channels bonded to provide a 128Kb/s data path. The majority of our lines are capable of dual channel operation but a few are not. Also, modem pools consist of multiple communications servers. In order for bonding to occur, in most cases both channels must land on the same communications server. Although hunting is setup to try to make this happen, it can not be guaranteed. It may take multiple call attempts to land both channels on the same server and get a bonded 128Kb/s connection.

Although our equipment is capable of clear 64Kb/s channels, some telco facilities are not. So it is possible in some locations that you may only be able to get 56Kb/s per channel. In this case, two bonded channels will provide a 112Kb/s data path.

If a voice call comes to your line or you originate a voice call, most ISDN terminal adapters (modems) will tear down one data channel to service the voice call and you will be limited to 64Kb/s data transfers for the duration of the voice call.
