Zero Code Suppression (ZCS)
ZCS line coding substitutes a 1 for the second least-significant bit of every
all-zero byte in AMI-encoded data (see line coding). ZCS encoding has no
effect on voice communications, but
it corrupts digital data (see restricted
facilities). In MMCX communications, ZCS corrupts the ISDN D-channel.
