The network normally associated with the future telecommunications systems based on asynchronous transfer mode (ATM).
broadband integrated services digital network. a single ISDN that can handle voice, data, and eventually video services
B-ISDN - Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (See ISDN) A packet switching technique which uses packets of fixed length, resulting in lower processing and higher speeds. Also see ATM or Cell Relay
BISDN is both a concept and a set of services and developing standards for integrating digital transmission services in a broadband network of fiber optic and radio media. BISDN will encompass frame relay service for high speed data that can be sent in large bursts, the Fiber Distributed Data Interface (Fiber Distributed Data Interface), and the Synchronous Optical Network (Synchronous Optical Network). BISDN will support transmission from 2 Mbps up to much higher, but as yet unspecified, rates.
(n.) Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network is a packet switching technique which uses packets of fixed length, resulting in lower processing and higher speeds. See also ATM or cell relay.
The next generation of ISDN service. BISDN is a fiber-optic-based service using asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) over SONET-based transmission circuits. The service is designed to handle high-bandwidth applications, such as video, at rates of 155Mbps, 622Mbps, and higher.

Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network. CCITT is developing a Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network umbrella standard. Its aim is to incorporate underlying standards for the integrated digital network switching, transmission and multiplexing facilities, that can meet expanding voice, video, data and other requirements lasting well into the future. One of the first drafts of the CCITT document, BISDN is defined as "a service requiring transmission channels capable of supporting rates greater than the primary rate". The primary rate for "narrowband" ISDN in the U.S. (as the current standard is often referred to) is 1.544 Mbps.
Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network. Telecommunications service concept. Widespread use of Internet protocols, xDSL in local networks, and ATM feature flexibility are enablers of BISDN; ATM and Internet use have evolved into BISDN. Concept features the ability to provide "on demand" bandwidth for various services, such as video & data transfer.

Broadband ISDN. In 1995-1996, BISDN began to offer dedicated circuits, switched circuits and packet services at rates of 155Mb/s and above. BISDN is still relatively in the conceptual stage. The goal is to take advantage of the raw bandwidth, which has been made available by the proliferation of fiber optic cable plants.
Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network. A network capable of carrying a wide range of services including video signals, e.g., SONET/SDH, ATM.

Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network. The next generation of ISDN, which is intended to carry digital data, voice, and video. ATM provides the switching fabric and SONET or SDHthe physical transport.
Broadband ISDN. ITU-T communication standards designed to handle high-bandwidth applications such as video. BISDN currently uses ATM technology over SONET-based transmission circuits to provide data rates from 155 to 622 Mbps and beyond. Contrast with N-ISDN. See also BRI, ISDN, and PRI.
