What I understood about SS7

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

SS7 is an example of CCS (Common Channel Signalling ) Protocol

  • It is not a single protocol
  • It is a suite of Protocol
  • It is not an access protocol
  • It is a net work protocol
  • It is point to multipoint

ISUP(ISDN user part) and TUP (Telephone User Part)  are in the call control layer

There is MTP (Message transyer layer ) which has three layers:-MTP1 , MTP2 , MTP3

Here in MTP1 (OSI -Physical layer ) has E1,T1

My opinion
So we have E1 , T1 links available in MTP1 layer , is this enough for the PBX . ie If we take the E1 link from MTP1 to the foneBRIDGE , it should work.
