D Channel

An ISDN D or Data channel is a data connection between the telephone company's switching equipment and their customer's ISDN equipment. It carries telephone connection information--signals to tell your equipment that a call is coming in and carry dialing and call handling information to the phone company's equipment--and can also be used to carry multiple low-speed data connections using the X.25 packet-switching protocol.
