Abstract

A system includes a first virtual end point processor (332) operably coupled to a plurality of channel elements (304) and a second virtual end point processor (340) operably coupled to a plurality of frame selectors (314). The system also includes at least one signaling manager (318, 334) that is arranged and constructed to establish a communication path that terminates at the first virtual end point processor (332) and the second virtual end point processor (340) prior to receiving a request for resources for a data call, such that set-up time for the data call through a wireless network is reduced.
