Abstract

The integrated services digital network (ISDN) offers on-demand switched digital end-to-end connectivity over the wide area. This enables the integration of both voice and data services over a common core network. This is distinct from the public switched telephone network (PSTN) which offers only analogue connectivity, requiring the use of modems for the transport of digital information.
