Abstract :
A B-ISDN introductory scenario is described from the viewpoint of service, and a virtual-path (VP)-based access network architecture based on this scenario is discussed. In the access network each VP is dedicated to one service, such as a leased circuit, switched circuit, or video distribution. The concept and functions of a subscriber line terminal (SLT) to realize this capability are introduced. Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) subscriber line system deployment and the main SLT functions are discussed
