AT&T Co’s AT&T Network Systems in Morristown, New Jersey has a new version of its Integrated Access and Cross-Connect System which it claims significantly expands users’ options for moving information worldwide: the system uses wideband packet technology to integrate digital data, voiceband data, facsimile, and speech in telephone company or very large private networks; it also concentrates the signals, and offers users more or less bandwidth as their needs change minute to minute, and handles traffic to prevent congestion; the new system is to be available from July 1.
