Figure 1-8. The Extended Super Frame
Robbed-Bit Signaling
In every 6th frame, robbed-bit signaling (RBS) replaces (that is, "robs") the least-significant bit (LSB) of
each channel. It replaces this bit with the signaling information for that channel. For D4, the 6th and 12th
frames carry RBS; for ESF, the 6th, 12th, 18th, and 24th frames carry RBS (refer to figures 1-7 and 1-8,
respectively).
Because the signaling information is carried embedded within each channel, RBS signaling is also called
inband signaling.
