Programming BRI Sets

Before You Begin

Ensure that:

The Quad BRI Framer Module is installed and programmed
Ensure that Interconnect Restriction and Intercept Handling is programmed for each trunk.

The local carrier service can support 64 Kbps data calls.

NOTE: For video conferencing over a BRI interface, the central office (CO) must support 64 Kbps clear channel data calls.

For more information, see Embedded BRI - Product Overview.
