The Up0-Interface is an ISDN-interface used in private networks. It derives from the UK0-Interface used in public networks.
In public networks the maximum cable length of an U bus is between 4 and 8 km, and the maximum length of an S0-bus is 900 meters for Point-to-Point configuration, and about 150-300m for point-to-multipoint configurations.
The Up0-bus has, - depending on cable quality, a reach of between 2 and 4 km – far more than the S0-bus. This makes possible the use of ISDN telephony equipment in large private networks.
Unlike the S0-bus, the Up0-bus is running half duplex, that is, both sides alternate in sending and receiving.
While the S0-bus lets one connect several ISDN devices (up to 8), the Up0-bus can connect only two devices (one at each end of the cable).
