What is R2 & CAS Signalling?

R2 signalling is part of the CAS (Channel Associated Signalling) protocols where dedicated channels are assigned to each traffic channel. R2 or Region Two signalling was originally envisaged to apply to Europe where R1 or Region One would apply to the US. Over time the R2 signalling protocols have become a subset of a large number of international protocol variants, which often span national boundaries due to a varying span of adoption.

R2 CAS signalling is still in common use today (most widely MFC R2), but has been superceded by other forms of signalling such as ISDN and SS7.

The SVI_MG and SVI_9225 products provide a solid platform for fully redundant telecoms grade R2 / CAS support, allowing carriers to benefit integrating over SIP, H.323, TDM SS7 or ISDN PRI.
