Non-Facility Associated Signalling
{{Unreferenced, date=September 2015 Non-Facility Associated Signaling or NFAS is a Primary Rate Interface configuration whereby multiple T1 carriers share a signaling channel (or D channel). A T1 circuit typically carries 24 individual timeslots. Each timeslot in turn carries a single telephone call. When a T1 circuit is used to carry Primary Rate ISDN one of the timeslots is used to carry the D channel. A single Primary Rate ISDN circuit is thus sometimes described as 23B + D. There are 23 bearer channels carrying voice or data, and one D channel carrying the Common Channel Signaling. In an NFAS configuration, multiple T1 circuits share a single D channel, with an upper limit of 20 T1 circuits in a single NFAS configuration. A full NFAS configuration can then be described as 479B + D. There is one problem; a failure on the T1 trunk carrying the D channel will also affect all 19 other trunks. The solution is D channel backup where a second D channel is configured on anoth ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The BFAA did not require clear lanes between the shooting position and the target - the preference was for the course to be as natural as possible. In 1970 the BFAA merged with the more recently formed English Field Archery Association (EFAA). The EFAA drew its membership largely from areas around U ...
