A signaling link that has been deactivated and cannot therefore carry signaling traffic.
Industry:Telecommunications
A signaling link that has successfully completed the initial alignment procedures and carries (or is ready to carry) signaling traffic.
Industry:Telecommunications
A signaling mechanism--usually incorporated within a telephone set--that when rotated and released, generates dc pulses required for establishing a connection in a telephone system.
Industry:Telecommunications
A signaling method in which one or more discrete frequencies correspond to each desired significant condition of a code. Note 1: The transition from one set of frequencies to the other may be a continuous or a discontinuous change in frequency or in phase. Note 2: Frequency-change signaling may be used in both supervisory signaling and data transmission.
Industry:Telecommunications
A signaling point that acts as a repository of information and provides query/response services for processing and routing of certain types of network calls (for example, 800 Data Base Service Calls. )
Industry:Telecommunications
A signaling point that can send or receive SS7 messages, and has no message transfer function. 2. A signaling point with the ability to source or sink network service part user data and considered exclusively from the viewpoint of the source or sink.
Industry:Telecommunications
A signaling point that is the source of a message.
Industry:Telecommunications
A signaling point that performs SCCP (signal connection control part) global title translation. It is also known as SCCP Relay Node. The translation performed may be intermediate, in which case the TSP is referred to as "intermediate translation signaling point" (ITSP,) or final, in which case the TSP is referred to as "final translation signaling point" (FTSP. )
Industry:Telecommunications
A signaling point to which a message is destined.
Industry:Telecommunications
A Signaling System No. 7 (SS7) address that is shared by more than one system supporting the same GTT (global title translation) function (or other SS7 function. ) It allows other systems to address the function instead of maintaining the status of multiple point codes. 2. A point code that may be assigned to more than one signaling point, each of which is also assigned a "real" point code. Note: Each of the signaling points having the same "alias" point code is capable of providing a predefined functionality (capability) in the network. As an example for management of global translation capability, an STP (signaling transition point) and its mate can be assigned the same "alias" point code. This provides the capability such that if a message that requires global title translation is routed based on "alias" point code, then either STP answering to the "alias" point code can provide the global title translation functionality. Synonym capability code.
