What is the essential difference between ISDN and the ordinary telephone system (PSTN)?..

Answer / silpa

The essential difference between ISDN and the ordinary PSTN system is that ISDN is digital, whereas the PSTN is analogue.

ISDN signals pass as a stream of bits. It is from this digital basis that most of the benefits of ISDN arise: speed, multi-channeling, and the ability to carry many types of calls.
