TIA 737 : 1998(R2007)

Allows digital wireless subscribers to send and receive asynchronous data. ADS provides functionality similar to a wireline modem in that the data is modified to make it suitable for transporting over the appropriate medium. Both wireless and wireline media are accommodated to support interworking between the two networks in a way that is transparent to the terminal equipment. The subscriber's terminal equipment interfaces to a conventional DCE data port. The far-end DCE interworks each end function as if connected to a compatible device. ADS is applicable to data telecommunication services. ADS is applicable to voice services in those cases where a voice call is made prior to a user initiated voice to data service change.
