Most ISDN lines offered by telephone companies give you two lines at once, called B channels. You can use one line for voice and the other for data, or you can use both lines for data to give you data rates of 128 Kbps, four or five times the data rate provided by today's modems.


Integrated Services Digital Network (Isdn) (Computer Virus)


A type of phone line used to enhance Wide Area Network (WAN) speeds. ISDN lines can transmit at speeds of 64 or 128 kilobits per second (Kbps), as opposed to standard phone lines, which transmit at only 9600 bps. The phone company installs an ISDN line at both the server and remote sites.


Integrated Services Digital Network (Isdn) (Help Desk)

CCITT (International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee - now ITU-T) defines the standards relating to ISDN.
