ALLIANCE is actually about ten years old, but it is still
technologically quite advanced.  It has echo cancellation on the
ports, and uses level equalization, so there will not be level
differences between talkers.  It also allows two or three talkers to
be active simultaneously. The ALLIANCE bridges are located at some
4ESS toll switches, but I don't know how many have been installed.
