It is one of two configurations for use in the access network, the other being primary rate interface. The BRI configuration provides two 64 kbit/s "bearer" channels (B channels) and one 16 kbit/s "Delta" channel (D channel). The B channels are used for voice or user data, and the D channel is used for any combination of: data, control/signalling and X.25 packet networking. The two B channels can be bonded together giving a total data rate of 128 kbit/s. BRI is the kind of ISDN interface most likely to be found in residential service
