High speed ss7 signaling adaptation device

摘要

A high speed SS7 signaling adaptation device (200) includes a platform manager (120) having a high speed control interface and operable to configure and monitor the operations of the adaptation device. An SS7 user parts process (122) is in communications with the platform manager (120) and operable to support one or more SS7 user parts protocol, and a message transfer part layer 3 process (124) is in communications with the platform manager (120) and operable to perform message routing, message distribution and message discrimination functions. A data link and physical layer process (126) is further in communications with the platform manager (120) and operable to provide broadband and narrowband SS7 signaling message transport. A plurality of high speed SS7 signaling adaptation devices are distributed in an intelligent telecommunications network. The distributed high speed SS7 signaling adaptation devices are coupled to signal transfer points which are operable to configure, manage and monitor the distributed high speed SS7 signaling adaptation devices.
