It was old, archaic, and cost like heck to the user. It is/was replaced with AT&T's SDN (Software Defined Network?), a much cheaper way too go. (Why not use yourself what you are selling to the customer?). I hope to God that I have not revealed any proprietary information that AT&T uses telephones just like everyone else:-) William T.
