Abstract

See full text

To overcome the incompatibility between network-generated and customer premises equipment-generated monitoring signals, a translator device (26) intercepts and strips off a network-generated monitoring signal received from the network (10) on a communication channel (12). In place of the network-generated monitoring signal, the translator provides a first alternate monitoring signal derived (translated) from the network-generated monitoring signal but of a format compatible with the customer premises equipment. The translator device also intercepts the customer premises equipment-generated monitoring signal and substitutes a second alternate monitoring signal derived (translated) from the customer premises equipment-generated monitoring signal but of a format compatible with the network.
