Appl. No.:

09/324488

Inventors:

James Blenis - Allen TX

International Classification:

G01R 3108

US Classification:

370227, 370241, 370245, 37922104

Abstract:

A method of rerouting a digital intra-office signal through a telephone central office comprises the steps of retrieving identification data for ports of first and second digital access and cross-connect systems, the ports being connected by an intra-office digital trunk, retrieving identification data for an alternative path from the first cross-connect system to the second cross-connect system, correlating identification data for the alternative path to the identification data for the intra-office digital trunk, determining availability of and displaying alternative path data responsive to entry of identification data for the intra-office digital trunk, and rerouting the intra-office digital signal via the alternative path. The rerouting of digital intra-office signals through a telephone central office may be necessitated by preventative maintenance, repair and replacement of connectors and the like, to install new bays or frames of equipment and to restore service in the event of a service outage or imminent failure.

Appl. No.:

9/133652

Inventors:

Assignee:

AT&T Corp. - New York NY

International Classification:

G06F 15173

US Classification:

709224

Abstract:

To overcome the incompatibility between network-generated and customer premises equipment-generated monitoring signals, a translator device (26) intercepts and strips off a network-generated monitoring signal received from the network (10) on a communication channel (12). In place of the network-generated monitoring signal, the translator provides a first alternate monitoring signal derived (translated) from the network-generated monitoring signal but of a format compatible with the customer premises equipment. The translator device also intercepts the customer premises equipment-generated monitoring signal and substitutes a second alternate monitoring signal derived (translated) from the customer premises equipment-generated monitoring signal but of a format compatible with the network.
