Identification card system - Telecommunications integrated circuit(s) cards and terminals - Part 6: Telecommunication features

This part of EN 726 defines telecommunication features using IC cards. These telecommunication features may be used by more than one application. This part of EN 726 describes the card-terminal interface. However, when needed the system is considered as well. This part of EN 726 describes the following telecommunication features: - Abbreviated Dialling; - Last Number Dialling (stored within the card); - Fixed Number Dialling.

La présente partie de l'EN 726 définit les services de télécommunication utilisant des cartes à circuit intégré. Ces services de télécommunication peuvent être utilisés par plus d'une application. La présente partie de l'EN 726 décrit l'interface carte-terminal. Cependant, au besoin, le système est également pris en compte. La présente partie de l'EN 726 décrit les services de télécommunication suivants: - numérotation abrégée; - rappel du dernier numéro appelé (stocké dans la carte); - numérotation restreinte à certains nuléros.

Overview

EN 726-6:1995 (adopted as SIST EN 726-6:1998) is a CEN standard that specifies telecommunication features for identification integrated circuit(s) (IC) cards and their terminals. This part of the EN 726 series defines how telecommunication services are represented on IC cards and how cards and terminals interact to provide those services. It focuses on shared telecommunication features that may be used by more than one application and describes the card–terminal interface; the broader system is considered where needed.

Key topics and requirements

• Telecommunication features defined
  • Abbreviated Dialling - support for dialing using short codes stored or referenced by the card.
  • Last Number Dialling - storage and retrieval of the last dialed number within the card.
  • Fixed Number Dialling - support for a predefined list of allowed numbers managed via the card.
• Card–terminal interface
  • Specification of how terminals access telecommunication features on the IC card and vice versa.
  • Emphasis on interoperability when features are shared across multiple applications on the same card.
• Multi-application use
  • Requirements accommodate telecommunication features that may be invoked by different applications hosted on a single card.
• Scope limits
  • This part addresses feature definitions and interfaces; system-level considerations are included only as needed to clarify interaction.

Applications

This standard is practical for organizations and professionals involved in designing, manufacturing, testing, deploying or regulating telecommunication IC card solutions:

• Smart card and IC card manufacturers implementing telephony-related services.
• Terminal and device vendors (payphones, public terminals, subscriber devices) ensuring compatibility with card-based telecommunication features.
• Telecommunication operators and service providers offering card-based dialing services such as prepaid or public-access telephony.
• System integrators and solution architects building multi-application card systems that include telephony functions.
• Test labs and conformity assessors validating card-terminal behavior for the defined features.

Adopting EN 726-6 helps ensure consistent user experience, predictable card–terminal interaction, and interoperability across products that implement abbreviated, last-number, and fixed-number dialing via IC cards.
