BISDN: Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network

Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (BISDN or Broadband ISDN) is designed to handle high-bandwidth applications. BISDN currently uses ATM technology over SONET-based transmission circuits to provide data rates from 155 to 622 Mbps and beyond, in contrast with the traditional narrowband ISDN (or N-ISDN), which is only 64 kps basically and up to 2 Mbps maximum.
