no. SAPI only exists in E1 based A-bis.

A-bis over E1 is what the BS-11 uses. ip.access has their own proprietary
protocol stacking and A-bis dialect. There is no public documentation about
it, apart from what we deducted from protocol traces and implemented in OpenBSC
/ wireshark and put into the OpenBSC wiki.
In any case, the Layer 2 (Q.921 on E1, with TEI and SAPI) is completely
uninteresting. All you should care about is layer 3 (12.21 OML and 08.58 RSL).
Whatever is below is the transport layer and does not actually have any actual impact on the GSM netwokr
