Sprint ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) delivers the high-speed connection your business requires to compete successfully. No other service matches the versatility of Sprint ISDN to satisfy such a wide range of applications and telecommunications needs at comparable cost. To meet your needs, Sprint ISDN comes in two flavors: BRI (basic rate interface) and PRI (primary rate interface), and provides the following benefits:

• Availability — Sprint ISDN uses existing phone lines and is available in most areas.
• Flexibility
  • ISDN BRI — Connect up to eight devices (phones, fax machines, computers, video devices, etc.) to a single ISDN BRI line, each with its own number so calls connect automatically. Use any two devices simultaneously, or temporarily bond channels together for even faster Internet, data transfer, or video sessions.
  • ISDN PRI — Dynamically assign each of PRI's 24 channels to voice, data, or video uses as necessary. Bond channels together for high bandwidth applications, up to a full 1.54 Mbps. Aggregating both ISDN and analog traffic on one line, this is especially useful to Internet service providers (ISPs).
• Reliability — Based on international standards, ISDN provides proven, reliable communications worldwide with the ease of a dialed phone call.
• Digital end-to-end solutions — Sprint and other carriers' networks are 100 percent digital for clear, virtually error-free communications.
• Equipment choices — Recognized standards mean you can choose equipment from a wide variety of vendors with assured interoperability. Use ISDN-rated equipment for ISDN capabilities and speeds while retaining the ability to connect existing analog phones and faxes to your Sprint ISDN service.
• Speed
  • ISDN BRI — Substantially faster than analog 28.8-Kbps and 56-Kbps modems for high-speed Internet access and large file transfers.
  • ISDN PRI — At 1.54 Mbps, speeds are as fast as a T1 private line but much more versatile.
• Cost savings — Enjoy the ability to reduce overall business costs by handling communications and related business processes faster with high-speed Sprint ISDN.
