A system to interworking a call between a plurality of networks having different formats. The system has a GR-303 system, an integrated services digital network system, a service platform, and an asynchronous transfer mode system. The system has a signaling processor that is adapted to receive the call signaling and to process the call signaling to select a connection to one of the GR-303 system, the integrated services digital network system, the service platform, or the asynchronous transfer mode system. The signaling processor thereby selects the corresponding system on the connection. The signaling processor transports a control message identifying the selected connection. An interworking unit receives the user communications and the control message. The interworking unit converts the user communications from the format in which it was received to the format that is compatible with the selected system. The user communications are then transported on the selected connection.

[ What is claimed is:] [28.] A system for interworking a call between a plurality of networks, the call having call signaling and user communications, the system comprising:a GR-303 system adapted to handle the call;an integrated services digital network system adapted to handle the call;an asynchronous transfer mode system adapted to handle the call;a signaling processor adapted to receive the call signaling, to process the call signaling to select at least one of a connection for the call to the GR-303 system, the integrated services digital network system, and the asynchronous transfer mode system, and to provide a control message that identifies the selected connection; andan interworking unit adapted to receive the user communications, to receive the control message from the signaling processor, and to interwork the user communications over the selected connection identified in the control message.
