[comp.dcom.telecom] NJ Bell calling line ID

mcb@ihnp4.UUCP (Mark C Baker @ AT&T Network Systems) (10/20/87)

The service being provided by NJ Bell this year which
displays the phone number of the person calling you is
not ISDN.  It is part of a number of CLASS (Customized
Local Area Signaling Services) features being offered
from 1A ESS switch central offices.  This is a analog 
switch by the way.  The calling DN is sent to the
customers premise equipment between the power ringing
cycles.  Calling Party DN is conveyed from one central
office to another via CCIS, CCS7 in the future.
