It supports interfaces such as ISUP and ISDN PRI, as well as MAP and IS-41 protocols for seamless integration with the existing wireless networks and the PSTN. This provides networking between multiple AirCore switching platforms in a corporate campus--and to the wireless network for seamless roaming and handover.
