What Is This Tool?
This converter tool enables users to transform data rates measured in ISDN (single channel) units, representing 64 kbit/s telecommunication channels, into T3Z (payload) units that measure application-level data payloads within T3Z systems. It supports the analysis and planning of network capacity based on actual user data throughput.
How to Use This Tool?

Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure you understand the context-specific meaning of T3Z (payload) within your system.
-
Validate conversion results based on the specific protocol implementations involved.
-
Consider that the conversion does not include protocol overhead or error effects.
-
Use the tool primarily for nominal data rates to support planning and performance tasks.
-
Combine this conversion with network documentation to achieve comprehensive system insights.
Limitations
-
The T3Z (payload) unit is context-dependent and may not align with standard SI units.
-
Conversion values should be interpreted according to the implementing system’s definitions.
-
This tool does not account for protocol overhead, signaling, or channel error factors.
-
Results reflect nominal data rates and may differ from actual throughput conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does ISDN (single channel) represent?
-
ISDN (single channel) refers to one ISDN bearer channel with a data-transfer capacity of 64 kbit/s used in telecommunication networks to carry voice or user data.
-
What is measured by T3Z (payload)?
-
T3Z (payload) is a unit expressing the amount of user data carried by a message or transfer interval within a T3Z system, focusing on application-level payload size or throughput.
-
Why convert ISDN (single channel) to T3Z (payload)?
-
Converting from ISDN to T3Z allows relating legacy channel capacities to application-level data metrics in telemetry systems, aiding in capacity planning and performance evaluation.
-
Does this conversion include overhead from protocols?
-
No, this conversion considers nominal data rates and does not account for protocol overhead or signaling effects.
-
Is T3Z (payload) a standard SI unit?
-
No, T3Z (payload) is context-specific and its interpretation depends on the system implementing the T3Z protocol.
