Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) in Missouri

Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) offers users a faster digital connection to the internet. This eliminates slower speeds and line noise caused by analog lines.

ISDN uses special high-speed digital phone lines with two available 64K channels of digital voice/data bandwidth. The channels can be combined for a 128K connection.

ISDN offers the following benefits:

  • High-Speed Data Access: Up to 10 times faster than a 28.8 Kbps analog dial-up modem connection.

  • Information Transfer: Information is now transferred over digital lines instead of an analog connection. This will eliminate a lot of line noise problems and make downloads faster.

    By purchasing an ISDN phone line, you will be able to leave one channel open to use for voice or bind the two together for faster Internet access.


ISDN connections are substantially faster than a dial-up connection, although the numbers, 56K versus 64K, do not reflect it.
