ISDN
The AT&T ISDN Testing Program helps CPE vendors ensure that their multiplexer, PBX, router and similar equipment take full advantage of AT&T’s ISDN PRI.
Service at turn-up is smooth. Testing helps to ensure that the products you have developed will work with our network and all the jagged edges are gone.
Testing identifies potential problems in the lab, not at customers’ locations. Your customers will know that they own a product that has tested compatible and interworks with AT&T’s ISDN. Testing also decreases maintenance costs. And it’s free.
