The bearer mode corresponds to the quality of transmission requested from the network for establishing a call. It is important to keep the concept of bearer mode separate from that of media type. As an example, the analog telephone network (PSTN) provides only a 3.1 kHz voice-grade bearer mode but calls using it can support media types such as voice, fax, or data modem.
The bearer mode of a call is specified when the call is set up, or is provided when the call is offered. With line devices able to represent channel pools, it is possible for a service provider to allow calls to be established with wider bandwidth.
Not all service providers support use of this information.
