Splitting
Splitting refers to a switching function used for several purposes including: (1) disconnection (isolation) of a channel that precedes the point where signaling frequencies are injected, and (2) disconnection (isolation) of a channel that succeeds the point where the signal receiver is connected. Splitting can be used to prevent false operation of signaling equipment (caused by signal reflections and spillover) when signaling information is being received. Splitting can also prevent interference from a preceding circuit or nearby equipment (terminal, or device) when a signaling point is receiving a signaling message.
