Abstract
In a telecommunications network, outgoing calls from a particular subscriber location for each of a plurality of telecommunications applications are delivered via a single access link to a single point of distribution through which the subscriber location is caused to be connected, as a function of the telecommunications application type, to an appropriate intelligent network element (INE) server. Additionally, incoming calls of the various application types and directed to a particular directory number are delivered to a single point of collection associated with its NPA-NNX and connections for those calls are caused to be made from the point of collection to an appropriate INE server, as a function of the telecommunications application type and the directory number in question. Communications within the network are by way of asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) cells.
