V5 Interface specifies the electrical, physical, procedural
and protocol requirements for the interconnection between
Local Exchange (LE) and Access Network (AN) for the support
of various types of digital and analog access.
V5.1 interface is based on a static multiplexer type principle
in which a single E1 link is used to carry the bearer channels
and the signaling channels. The bearer channel allocation
to the V5.1 subscriber is fixed. The V5.2 interface is based
on a dynamic concentrator type principle consisting of 1 to
16 E1 links carrying bearer and signaling channels. The bearer
channel allocation to the subscriber is dynamic on a per call
basis.
