Integrated service Digital network. ISDN is a circuit-switched telephone network system, that also provides access to packet switched networks, designed to allow digital transmission of voice and data over ordinary telephone copper wires, resulting in better voice quality than an analog phone. It offers circuit-switched connections (for either voice or data), and packet-switched connections (for data), in increments of 64 kbit/s. Another major market application is internet access, where ISDN typically provides a maximum of 128 kbit/s in both upstream and downstream directions (which can be considered to be broadband speed, since it exceeds the narrowband speeds of standard analog 56k telephone lines). ISDN B-channels can be bonded to achieve a greater data rate, typically 3 or 4 BRIs (6 to 8 64 kbit/s channels) are bonded.

What is a difference between broadband ISDN and narrowband ISDN?

Here are some differences between broadband ISDN and narrowband ISDN: 1) Narrowband ISDN uses 64 kb/s channel, while broadband ISDN uses 100 mb/s channels. 2) Broadband uses call relay, while narrowband uses frame relay. 3) In narrowband, ISDN information carries narrow frequency, while in broadband, ISDN uses a wide band of frequency.
