Signaling System #7

Or SS7. The basis for modern methods to route traffic with out-of-brand signaling. Its forerunner, CCIS (Common Channel Interoffice Signaling), used 4.8 Kbps data links to transmit call set up and tear down messages to switching office adjunct computers and packet switches. SS7 in itself is not a network service offering, but rather the underlying infrastructure with which many existing and proposed offerings are based. For example, local Basic Rate ISDN (BRI) services can tap into SS7, so 64 Kbps packetized data can be routed with the help of the network's out-of-band signaling capability. In addition, nationwide Primary Rate ISDN (PRI) services can use the same backbone.
