Abstract

An embedded operations channel (EOC)-based signalling mechanism is incorporated within transceiver interface (U-BR1TE) components of an integrated services digital network (ISDN) telecommunication system, for effecting a relatively fast, warm start reactivation of a previously deactivated extended ISDN link between an ISDN switch and customer premises equipment. In response to the EOC-embedded 'wake-up the loop' message, the receiving U-BR1TE card supplies a 10 Khz wake-up tone to its associated termination equipment (either to the NT-1 in the case of a switch-sourced reactivation, or to the ISDN switch in the case of an NT-1 sourced wake-up request), to reestablish the ISDN loop.
