Abstract
Abstract An ISDN tie line connecting system connects an ISDN tie line between two private branch exchanges via an ISDN office line using an ISDN primary rate interface. The ISDN tie line connecting system includes a tie line interface, a provisional interface for connecting an office line interface, and an interface loop-back part which is coupled to each private branch exchange. The interface loop-back part carries out a conversion between the tie line interface and the provisional interface with respect to the ISDN primary rate interface.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
105 words
An ISDN tie line connecting system which connects an ISDN tie line between two private branch exchanges via an ISDN office line using an ISDN primary rate interface, said ISDN tie line connecting system comprising: a tie line interface connected between the ISDN tie line and each private branch exchange; a provisional interface connected between the ISDN office line and each private branch exchange; an interface loop-back part, coupled to each private branch exchange, for carrying out a conversion between the tie line interface and the provisional interface with respect to the ISDN primary rate interface, by looping back at least the tie line interface.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
105 words
An ISDN tie line connecting system which connects an ISDN tie line between two private branch exchanges via an ISDN office line using an ISDN primary rate interface, said ISDN tie line connecting system comprising: a tie line interface connected between the ISDN tie line and each private branch exchange; a provisional interface connected between the ISDN office line and each private branch exchange; an interface loop-back part, coupled to each private branch exchange, for carrying out a conversion between the tie line interface and the provisional interface with respect to the ISDN primary rate interface, by looping back at least the tie line interface.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
92 words
The ISDN tie line connecting system as claimed in claim 1, wherein said interface loop-back part comprises: B channel data extracting means for extracting individual B channel data; B channel data delay means, coupled to said B channel data extracting means, for delaying the B channel data extracted by said B channel data extracting means; and B channel data inserting means, coupled to said B channel data delay means, for inserting the B channel data delayed by said B channel data delay means into an output highway of the B channel data.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
73 words
The ISDN tie line connecting system as claimed in claim 2, wherein said interface loop-back part further comprises D channel information inserting/extracting means, coupled to said B channel data extracting means and said B channel data inserting means, for inserting or extracting D channel information to or from one B channel when carrying out the conversion between the tie line interface and the provisional interface with respect to the ISDN primary rate interface.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
57 words
The ISDN tie line connecting system as claimed in claim 1, wherein said interface loop-back part comprises D channel information inserting/extracting means for inserting or extracting D channel information to or from one B channel when carrying out the conversion between the tie line interface and the provisional interface with respect to the ISDN primary rate interface.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
80 words
The ISDN tie line connecting system as claimed in claim 1, wherein said interface loop-back part carries out the conversion between the tie line interface and the provisional interface wherein the ISDN primary rate interface provides a plurality of channels and approximately half of the ISDN primary rate interface channels are used in conjunction with the tie line interface and a remaining part of the channels of the ISDN primary rate interface are used in conjunction with the provisional interface.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
111 words
The ISDN tie line connecting system as claimed in claim 5, wherein said interface loop-back part comprises: B channel data extracting means for extracting individual B channel data of approximately half of the ISDN primary rate interface; B channel data delay means, coupled to said B channel data extracting means, for delaying the B channel data extracted by said B channel data extracting means to a remaining part of the ISDN primary rate interface, and B channel data inserting means, coupled to said B channel data delay means, for inserting the B channel data delayed by said B channel data delay means into an output highway of the B channel data.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
73 words
The ISDN tie line connecting system as claimed in claim 6, wherein said interface loop-back part further comprises D channel information inserting/extracting means, coupled to said B channel data extracting means and said B channel data inserting means, for inserting or extracting D channel information to or from one B channel when carrying out the conversion between the tie line interface and the provisional interface with respect to the ISDN primary rate interface.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
72 words
The ISDN tie line connecting system as claimed in claim 5, wherein said interface loop-back part comprises D channel information inserting/extracting means, coupled to said B channel data extracting means and said B channel data inserting means, for inserting or extracting D channel information to or from one B channel when carrying out the conversion between the tie line interface and the provisional interface with respect to the ISDN primary rate interface.
