IPRs essential or potentially essential to the present document may have been declared to ETSI. The information
pertaining to these essential IPRs, if any, is publicly available for ETSI members and non-members, and can be found
in ETSI SR 000 314: "Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs); Essential, or potentially Essential, IPRs notified to ETSI in
respect of ETSI standards", which is available from the ETSI Secretariat. Latest updates are available on the ETSI Web
server (http://webapp.etsi.org/IPR/home.asp).
Pursuant to the ETSI IPR Policy, no investigation, including IPR searches, has been carried out by ETSI. No guarantee

1 Scope
The present document specifies a simple set of objectives, principles and responsibilities for the transmission
performance of multiple interconnected networks that provide "traditional quality (POTS)" circuit switched telephony
services.
The objectives, principles and responsibilities take account of the liberalization of telephony services and the
interconnection of several separate networks, each with different topologies, in the provision of telephony connections.
The present document applies to:
• national and international networks;
• Digital Networks and Integrated Digital Networks (i.e. networks where the only analogue component may be
the local loop).
The present document applies in the cases where the telephony service is:
• contracted between the network operator and the customer/end user; and
• contracted through a service provider.
It applies where:
• the caller pays for the call;
• the recipient pays for the call (e.g. the 800 service); or
• the cost of the call is shared by the caller and the recipient.
The present document does not apply to any segment of calls where either the calling or called terminal is a mobile
"terminating network".
2 References
References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or
non-specific.
• For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply.
• Non-specific reference may be made only to a complete document or a part thereof and only in the following
cases:
- if it is accepted that it will be possible to use all future changes of the referenced document for the
purposes of the referring document;
- for informative references.
Referenced documents which are not found to be publicly available in the expected location might be found at
http://docbox.etsi.org/Reference.
For online referenced documents, information sufficient to identify and locate the source shall be provided. Preferably,
the primary source of the referenced document should be cited, in order to ensure traceability. Furthermore, the
reference should, as far as possible, remain valid for the expected life of the document. The reference shall include the
method of access to the referenced document and the full network address, with the same punctuation and use of upper
case and lower case letters.
NOTE: While any hyperlinks included in this clause were valid at the time of publication ETSI cannot guarantee
their long term validity.
