"Integrating Voice and Data Networks," Cisco Press, ISBN 1-57870-196-1
Part I, "Traditional Voice Networks" was a marvelous clue-by-four
for me as far as voice networks goes. I've read more books on the
topic than I can remember--which tells you how lousy the books
were. This one got me clued in fast.
I wouldn't claim to be a voice god now, but at least it was accurate
and in-depth enough to allow me to talk semi-intelligently with
those who live in that world ("E&M? Well, I'm not into that...but I
guess I can spank your ass if it'll get the circuit up any
quicker.")
