Ordering U.S. and 

Canadian ISDN BRI 

Services

To order ISDN service from your telephone company, follow these steps:

1 Call the telephone company and ask for the ISDN representative. 

2 Tell the representative you want ISDN service for a SuperStack II 

NETBuilder SI bridge/router, and that you have the following information:

■

Line provisioning

■

ISDN outlet type

3 Tell the representative that the Bellcore ISDN ordering code (IOC) is 

“Capability R.” The IOC tells the telephone company which parameter 

settings to use for SuperStack II bridge/routers.

Not all Regional Bell Operating Companies use IOCs.

4 If you have a model 43x or model 53x bridge/router with an ISDN S/T 

connector, ask for an NT1 to connect your SuperStack II bridge/router to 

the ISDN line. (You can also purchase an NT1 from a reseller.)

5 Ask for the following information to fill out the ISDN Information Sheet:

■

ISDN Switch Type. Ask the representative which ISDN switch type 

your line uses. Place a check mark next to that switch on the ISDN 

Information Sheet. Each switch type has a corresponding provisioning 

information table later in this section. 

■

Number of ISDN Phone Numbers. Your ISDN line can support one 

or two phone numbers. Specify how many phone numbers you are 

ordering.
