There is a problem with any copper wire transmission system -- Cross-talk.This is caused by the electrical signal in one wire being induced onto an adjacent wire, a
problem that is especially prevalent in central offices, where large bundles of wires enter the building. The solution was relatively simple. Experiments showed that balancing out the undesired induced currents by "turning over" or transposing the relative positions of the
disturbing and disturbed circuits could solve the inductance problem. Physically, this can be accomplished very easily on wire pairs (two wires) by giving them a twist every few inches. The careful manufacture of twisted-pair wires effectively eliminated this problem. Twisted pair wires are the 22- or 24-gauge subscriber line wires in your house that connect your
telephone or computer modem to the telephone central office.

The increase in the cost cabling will be directly
proportional to the increase in size of the network.
Number of links required for connecting “n” subscribers is
given as n!/(2*(n-2)!)
The increase in the number of devices at CPE will be directly proportional to the
increase in the size of the network.
The cost of maintaining such a setup will spiral up as the size of the
network increases.

Packet switches take a user's data stream, break it down into smaller segments, called packets.
They add network control information, and then transmit the packets through the network in bursts.
The size of the packet can vary based on nature/needs of the application. Unlike circuit switches, packet switches don't use dedicated paths. All packet-switched traffic comes in bursts with a variable bit rate (VBR) In a packet switch, incoming traffic is passed through the switch on a first-come, first-
served basis, and packet traffic is routed according to the address in the packet header. Since a customer's data can arrive at the switch at any time, packet switching is called
asynchronous switching.
Circuit switch provides a physical, dedicated path -- called a time slot -- for a call through the switching matrix.
No other callers can use that switch path until the call is ended. The call has an end-to-end dedicated circuit for the duration of the call, hence the switch is
called a circuit switch. Circuit switching is used for voice switching and to support data services that have a
constant bit rate (CBR). Circuit switching is called synchronous because the user's information is transmitted in a
specific time slot, and only in that time slot. This concept of a dedicated path guarantees high-quality, almost error-free transmission
for the call. Since the average voice conversation is about three to four minutes long, network switch
resources used to set up the path can be reused over and over during the course of the day.

Digital Subscriber Lines
DSL ADSL HDSL RADSL VADSL VDSL Universal ADSL
Digital subscriber line, which operates at a maximum of 144 Kb/s for ISDN subscriber, lines. ISDN is used for
voice and data communications.
Asymmetric digital subscriber line, which operates at 32Kb/s to 8.19 Mb/s downstream to the customer and 16 to 640 Kb/s
upstream to the network over existing twisted-pair copper wire. ADSL is envisioned for use for Internet access, video on
demand (VOD), simplex video, remote LAN access, and interactive multimedia.
High-bit rate digital subscriber line delivers data symmetrically at rates up to at 1.544 Mb/s full-duplex for
equivalent T1/E1 service, or at 2.48 Mb/s duplex (requires two pairs of wire) for subscriber lines. It delivers at 2.49 Mb/s
duplex (requires three pairs of wire) for feeder plant, WAN services, LAN access, or server access.
Rate adaptive ADSL is a version of ADSL where the ADSL modems test the line at start up and adapts the data rate to
within 32 Kb/s of the maximum throughput the line is capable of supporting.
Very high-bit-rate asymmetric digital subscriber line, which operates at a subset of speeds of VDSL when it supports symmetric
operation.
It describes a form of ADSL that does not require a splitter at the customer location to separate voice signals from
digital signals in the data stream. This approach leads to a "plug-and-play" ADSL where the user can simply connect
the line to a PC and be in service. Universal ADSL will operate at lower bit rates than "existing" ADSL systems,
but it is up to 25 times faster than today's 56Kb/s modems and just as easy to install.
Very high-bit rate digital subscriber line is under development for twisted-pair access
service at 12.9Mb/s to 52.8Mb/s downstream and 1.5 to 2.3Mb/s upstream.
However, the maximum reach will be reduced from 4,500 to 1,000 feet and it will need fiber-optics cable. Applications are the
same as ADSL, plus high-definition TV.

Line Signaling – Used for line (trunk) supervision
– Represents the events that occur on a trunk I.e SZD, SZA, ANS, CLF, RLG
Register Signaling– Used for address signaling I.e. called party number
etc.
– Normally done using MF tones but pulse signaling is also possible
04/12/23 50
R1 Line Signals
Analog system– A continuous tone of 2600 Hz represents
onhook– Offhook is represented by absence of
supervision tone Digital system (T1)
– Only the bit in the 6th frame is actually used for signaling
– Offhook is 1, Onhook is 0
04/12/23 51
R1 line signals
Forward signals– Seize (Onhook -> Offhook)– Clear forward (Offhook -> Onhook)
Backward signals– Wink (Offhook pulse)– Answer (Onhook -> offhook)– clear backward (offhook -> onhook)
04/12/23 52
R1 register signals
Six frequencies are used (700, 900, 1100, 1300, 1500, 1700) Hz
A combination of two frequencies represent a digit
