S bus configuration
The S bus is a four-wire, serial ISDN bus based on the DSS1 protocol (ETSI standard). It starts in each
case at an BRI-S interface of the communication server. Four bus configurations are possible, depending
on the line length and the number of terminals:
NOTE: The maximum number of terminals per S bus depends on the power requirements of the termi-nals
(see Restrictions
).
