Abstract

As part of the development of their proposed integrated services network, Network 2000, ITT have produced the 1240 digital exchange for voice and data. Hardware has been designed for a range of exchange sizes. LSI and commercially-available microprocessors are used. A distributed control structure provides the size range, and a modular approach allows the attachment of new or customized modules.

Software has been designed to cover the full traffic range and telecommunications needs that will include voice, data, rural, local transit and toll applications. The system is intended to allow the simple implementation of design changes for technology and for the offering of new services.
