Chapter 1 Introduction
The proliferation of PCs and LANs with bandwidth intensive applications, has
generated a powerful demand for high-speed connections. The worldwide
standardization of ISDN, combined in many countries with its growing availability and
falling cost, make it a natural choice for enhancing data throughput.
ISDN T/A 128 adapters provide high-performance solutions for Internet access, file
transfer, remote access service (RAS), video conferencing, and running existing
modem applications through the ISDN network.
ISDN T/A 128 Adapters
There are two types of ISDN interface of ISDN T/A 128 adapter, ST and U interface. If
you purchased the ST interface adapter (eg. IA128-ST), you need an ISDN NT1 device
connect to the ISDN switch. If you purchased the U interface adapter (eg. IA128-U), it
can directly connect to the ISDN switch. (figure 1-1)
There are two types of PC buses of ISDN T/A 128 adapter, ISA and PCI. Each bus (ISA
or PCI) and each interface (ST or U) has two models option, “D”and “DV”. All of the
features between “D”and “DV”models are the same, except “DV”model provides an
extra standard a/b (POTS) port.

interface and a/b port connections. Of course, “IA128P-ST-D”means PCI bus, ISDN
card, and ST interface connection only. “IA128”implies Planet’s ISDN PC internal
adapter.
All of the current analog devices, including telephone set, G3 fax, answering machine,
modem, and PBX trunk line can be connected to the a/b port (RJ-11 jack) in “DV”model.
The data transmission rate of the “DV”model can up to 64 Kbps while analog
communication on-line, or up to 128 Kbps through Multilink PPP connection.
The Features of ISDN T/A 128 Adapters

cards.
Why ISDN?
The ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) is the standard for carrying both data
and voice simultaneously. ISDN BRI (Basic Rate Interface) line provides two B-
Channels for voice or data transmission, and each B-Channel can provide data
transmission of up to 64 Kbps. The ISDN network uses the same transmission lines as
the existing analog telephone network, but using a digital signal and higher bandwidth
between the central office (phone company) and the customer. Aside from four times
faster than a standard 28.8 Kbps modem, ISDN also provides an extremely reliable and
stable digital connection.
The ISDN network can set up a connection in about 3 seconds. This is much quicker
than the PSTN network. This feature alone can result in great time savings in the longer
term.
Why High Speed Analog Modems Can Not Compete With ISDN Digital
Connections?
“The high speed modem can run at 28.8 Kbps and will move data at ISDN-type speeds
when you consider data compression”. This assumes a noise-free telephone line and
that the data is easily compressed. Unfortunately, many image files cannot be
compressed easily, and many telephone lines are far from ideal. ISDN always operates
at its rated speed. Of course, ISDN cards can also use data compression technology to
multiply its raw data transmission speed.
Telephone monopolies allowing, ISDN will inevitably replace the existing analog
telephone network. The conversion is being driven by applications such as
telecommuting, home-working, remote LAN access, video conferencing and access to
the Internet. Today, ISDN is available almost everywhere so all users can should be
able to get the benefits from ISDN now.

Chapter 2 Before Installation
Before installation ISDN T/A 128 adapter, you need to check the package contents,
apply an ISDN BRI line, get a NT1 device (for ISDN T/A 128 ST adapter only) from your
phone company or retailed stores, and apply an Internet access account (if Internet
access required).
After you prepared the above items, you can start your environment setup. If you
purchased the adapter is “DV”model, you can connect your analog device to the RJ-
11 jack (in the UK an adapter is supplied).

ISDN BRI Line
Before running the ISDN T/A 128 adapter, you need to get an ISDN BRI (Basic Rate
Interface) line from your local telephone company. Sometimes, your ISP may, upon
your request, order an ISDN BRI line for you when you apply an ISDN Internet access
account.
You should get the subscriber information from your ISDN telephone company, who
may inform you about your ISDN central switch type and SPID (Service Profile Identifier)
number, when you are in the US country.

5
What is SPID?
SPID stands for Service Profile ID. The SPID is applicable to the US country only.
SPIDs are a series of numbers that informs the central office switch which services and
features to provide to an ISDN device. The generic SPID format comprises 14 digits.
The first 10 digits are the main telephone number on the terminal. The last 4 digits are
dependent on the number of terminals on the interface and the services they support.
NT1 Connection
The ISDN U-loop is terminated by NT1 device at the customer premises. The
connection between the NT1 and Terminal Adapter (ta) is called point “T”. The NT1
drives a 4-conductor S/T-bus which may be expanded to 8 conductors to provide for
emergency power. If your ISDN product with a S/T outlet interface, you need an NT1
device connect to the ISDN switch. ISDN T/A 128 ST adapter needs an NT1 device to
connect to the ISDN switch, but ISDN T/A 128 U adapter does not require NT1 device.
In the UK, and in many European countries, an NT1 device is supplied by your
telephone company. Therefore the ST adapter are required for these countries.
Internet Access Account
If you want to use ISDN T/A 128 adapter to connect to the Internet, you must get an
Internet access account from an ISP (Internet Service Provider) around your location.
You must also confirm with your ISP that they support ISDN access (either single
channel 64K or 128K MLP).
Environment Setup
All ISDN T/A 128 adapters are truly Plug and Play (PnP) compatible. Even if the BIOS
or computer main board does not provide PnP feature, the ISDN T/A 128 device driver
still can automatically configure ISDN card with proper I/O addresses and IRQ number.
1. Terminator setup of ISDN T/A 128 ST adapters (IA128-ST, IA128P-ST,
UI-1280ST)
FPlease jump to the next section (2.) if you are the user of U interface adapter,
IA128-U or IA128P-U.
ISDN S/T interface can support up to 8 ISDN terminals and through NT1 device
connecting to the ISDN network. One and only one ISDN S/T device should have
the terminator enabled. Normally the ISDN terminal which is farthest from NT1
should have the terminator enabled.
ISDN T/A 128 ST adapter provides two jumpers of JP1 and JP2 (or DIP switch in

6
USB T/A) for the terminators setup, the default setting of ST adapter with terminator
enabled (DIP switch in ON). If there are other ISDN devices connected to the NT1
with ISDN T/A 128 ST adapter, and you do not need the ISDN T/A 128 ST adapter
as terminator, then please remove the JP1 and JP2 (open circuit, DIP switch in
OFF).
2. Insert the ISDN T/A 128 adapter
a. Turn off your computer power and remove the lid.
b. Insert the ISDN T/A 128 adapter into a spare PC ISA (or PCI) slot and secure it.
c. Replace the lid.
If you have UI-1280ST (USB) device, you can connect to the USB port directly.
3. Analog device connection (DV model only)
“DV”model of ISDN T/A 128 adapter provides a POTS interface (a/b port) with
RJ-11 jack to connect with current analog devices. Users can connect analog
telephones, G3 fax, modem, or answering machine with the RJ-11 connector cable
into the RJ-11 jack of the ISDN T/A 128adapter. In the UK an adapter is supplied to
convert from the UK type 103 plug to the US RJ-11 plug. The REN (Ringer
Equivalence Number) drive capability or parallel ring number is 3, so you can
connect up to 3 analog devices, assuming each device has a REN of 1.
4. ISDN connection
Connect the ST (IA128-ST, P-IN110-ST or UI-1280ST) adapter and NT1 with RJ-
45 cable connector, and insert the ISDN BRI line into the correct NT1 socket.
OR
Directly Insert the ISDN BRI line with the RJ-45 connector cable into the RJ-45 jack
on the U (IA128-U or IA128P-U) adapter. Please kindly be informed that even RJ-
45 connector has 8 pins and RJ-11 has 4 or 6 pins, but you can still plug cable from
wall jack with RJ-11 connector into RJ-45 jack on the U adapter. The ISDN T/A 128
U adapter still works correctly.
