Successful Block Transfer
  • The transfer of a correct, nonduplicate, user information block between the source user and intended destination user. Note: Successful block transfer occurs at the moment when the last bit of the transferred block crosses the functional interface between the telecommunication system and the intended destination user. Successful block transfer can only occur within a defined maximum block transfer time after initiation of a block transfer attempt. See also block, block transfer attempt, block transfer failure, block transfer time, maximum block transfer time.
