The TelcoBridges CAS R2 stack features a scriptable register signaling engine that, in practice, allows the complete customization of communication processes using tones. More specifically, it is possible to modify the timing(s) of the tone exchanges, change the meaning(s) of each tone and dynamically specify the sequence in which the tones are played. The CAS R2 stack also provides integrated interoperability between variants and between other signaling types. For instance, the calling party category can be converted between variants and propagated to a SS7 call leg. | The TelcoBridges CAS R2 stack features a scriptable register signaling engine that, in practice, allows the complete customization of communication processes using tones.

Channel Associated Signaling is a signaling protocol for the set-up and tear-down of phone calls. It is different from other signaling protocols such as SS7 in that it is not message/packet-based but rather based on bit transition for state changing, and tone transmission for information and state information exchange. In many parts of the world, CAS was first replaced by ISDN and in many cases, was ultimately replaced by SS7. Today, CAS is often used with low density trunks.

CAS and TelcoBridges
Please note that CAS support is limited to E1/T1/J1 interfaces. It is not compatible with DS-3 or STM-1 interfaces.
CAS R1
Toolpack supports various CASR1 variants, on T1 and E1 line interfaces.
The TelcoBridges CAS R1 stack features a scriptable register signaling engine that allows the complete customization of CAS R1 variants and call flows, including creation of new variants that are not provided with Toolpack.
Please refer to the following page for detailed information about CASR1 script
Note: Support for CAS R1 has been introduced in Toolpack release 2.7.42. Please refer to Toolpack Web Portal v2.7.
Supported CAS R1 variants
The following CAS variants are currently supported by the Toolpack:
- E&M "Wink start" (delay start, 1 wink or 2 winks)
- FXS Loop start
- FXO Loop start
Please contact TelcoBridges regarding support for additional CAS variants.
CAS R2
Toolpack supports various CASR2 variants E1 line interfaces.
The TelcoBridges CAS R2 stack features a scriptable register signaling engine that, in practice, allows the complete customization of communication processes using tones. More specifically, it is possible to modify the timing(s) of the tone exchanges, change the meaning(s) of each tone and dynamically specify the sequence in which the tones are played. The CAS R2 stack also provides integrated interoperability between variants and between other signaling types. For instance, the calling party category can be converted between variants and propagated to a SS7 call leg.
Note: Support for CAS R1 has been introduced in Toolpack release 2.5. Please refer to Toolpack Web Portal v2.5.
Supported CAS R2 variants
The following CAS variants are currently supported by the Toolpack:
- Generic (ITU spec base)
- Brazil
- Mexico
Using Toolpack's script-based approach to the management of regional variants, variants supplied Toolpack can be adapted to address specific requirements and new variant scripts can be created from scratch, without to need to 'patch' or update the underlying system software version.
