Abstract: A standard T-1 span is connected to a digital central office or remote terminal. Telephone equipment for such a T-1 span defines a superframe format with each frame of the twelve frames of a superframe having twenty-four eight-bit position time slots. Telephone system signalling requires T-1 signalling bits be located in the least significant bit position of each time slot in every sixth frame. In the disclosed system, simultaneous digitized voice and data share a single time slot for transmission along with the T-1 signalling bits in that time slot. In order to achieve the additional capability, the disclosed system employs least and next-to-least digitized voice bit swapping and a data bit occupying the space of the swapped least significant digitized voice bit, which bit is deleted.
