Abstract A circuit for the subscriber termination in an integrated services digital network (ISDN) to which a number of individual terminals are connected by means of S-interfaces, or by S-interface busses respectively connected in a number of terminals into a common ISDN network termination, each subscriber line having a B+B+D channel structure, has a circuit for interconnecting the D-channels of each of the subscriber line into a common D-channel connected to the common network termination, and means for connecting the common D-channel to each of said subscriber lines as a D-echo channel. The B-channels of each of the subscriber lines are connected in common to the B-channel leading to the common network termination, and the common D-channel from the network termination is connected in common as outputs to each of the subscriber lines.
A circuit for an integrated services digital network having a network termination connected through respective S-interfaces to a plurality of terminal lines, each terminal line having a B+B+D channel structure for each transmission direction, and said terminal lines each having one or more subscriber terminals connected thereto, and means for combining and fanning said B and D channels, said network termination being connected to a switching center via a subscriber line, said circuit comprising: AND gate means having a plurality of inputs each connected to the D-channel of individual ones of said terminal lines, means for connecting the output of said AND gate means to said switching center, means for connecting the output of said AND gate means to each of said terminal lines over a D-echo channel, and circuit means for connecting the B-channels of each of said terminal lines to the B-channel of said switching center.
