It's different! I searched all over and decided to post this.

CAS and Robbed Bit originally developed as the same thing. Robbed bit became the same as CAS.

Avaya decided to make CAS mean something else. Thats why when you program a circuit pack your have a choice CAS and another for Robbed Bit. Here's what I pulled from DEFINITY®
Enterprise Communications Server Release 10 Administrator’s Guide Volumes 1, 2, and 3:

Valid entries Usage:
CAS (Channel Associated Signaling)
Enter CAS for out-of band signaling with E-1 service. This
setting yields 30 64-kbps B-channels for voice or data
transmission. Channel 0 is used for framing while channel 16
carries signaling.

robbed-bit Enter robbed-bit for in-band signaling with T-1 service. This setting yields 24 56-kbps B-channels for voice transmission.

HA!
