SIST TBR 040 E1:2004 is the Slovene standard identical to ETSI TBR 040 Edition 1. It specifies attachment requirements and test methods for terminal equipment that uses Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) to connect to Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), mainly for DECT/ISDN interworking profile applications. It is written for equipment makers, test labs and approval teams that need to verify Fixed Part (FP) and Portable Part (PP) behavior.
What does SIST TBR 040 E1:2004 specify?
SIST TBR 040 E1:2004 defines the technical characteristics for terminal equipment capable of ISDN connection through DECT radio access. The focus is the end system configuration, where the FP is connected to ISDN and the PP communicates over the DECT air interface.
The document applies to DECT terminal equipment operating in the 1 880 MHz to 1 900 MHz band. It is structured so that the FP and PP can be type-approved separately, which matters in practice because manufacturers can assess each part on its own rather than as one combined product.
Clause 4 explains how to use the document. It says the present document contains requirements, test specification and Requirements Tables for equipment claiming conformance to the DECT/ISDN interworking profile, and that any DECT Common Interface item not listed in the tables is out of scope and not tested.
The standard is organized into clauses 1 to 6, plus annexes.
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Annex A | Requirement tables and test support tables for PP and FP across IWU, NWK, DLC, MAC and PH layers, including messages, procedures, parameters and protocol data units. |
| Annex B | Bibliography. |
What are the key requirements of SIST TBR 040 E1:2004?
SIST TBR 040 E1:2004 ties DECT/ISDN profile behavior to attachment requirements and testable items. The most important point is that a product is judged against the profile it claims, and optional functions only become mandatory for that product if the function is actually implemented.
Applicability and conformance
Clause 5 treats the DECT/ISDN Interworking Access Profile features, services and requirements from EN 300 434-1 and EN 300 434-2 as part of the essential requirements under Council Directive 98/13/EC. The Terminal Directive Category column is used to show how each item is classified.
This matters because the standard is not just descriptive. It is a conformance target for equipment that wants DECT/ISDN type approval. If a feature is claimed, it must meet the related requirement and test.
Clause 4 also states that the document is set up to allow FP and PP type approval as separate items. If extra equipment is needed to stimulate the terminal during testing, the test setup may use it.
End system configuration and profile behavior
The document currently covers the end system configuration for DECT/ISDN interworking. It also says that the intermediate system configuration will be added later in another part.
For the interworking path, the key substance is in the layered requirements tables. At the IWU level, the document covers speech and data bearer behavior, call control and supplementary service handling. At the NWK level, it covers call control, link control and message mapping between DECT and ISDN. In practice, this is where the terminal proves that calls, releases, supplementary-service signaling and information exchange work across both worlds.
DLC and MAC layer requirements
The DLC layer requirements cover C-plane and U-plane services, together with class A, broadcast and LU1 service behavior. LU7 is also covered where the claimed profile includes it. This layer matters because it carries the signaling and bearer functions that bridge the radio link and the higher-level call handling.
The MAC layer requirements cover connection oriented control, broadcast control, multiplexing and management. Clause A.2 and A.3 tables specify the procedures and messages that have to be supported for setup, transfer, release, paging, scrambling, channel handling and radio part management.
In practical terms, this is the layer that determines whether the portable part can access the radio channel, maintain the bearer and respond correctly to control messages.
Physical layer and radio behavior
The PH layer requirements cover the radio interface itself. The tables specify packet types, channel behavior, transmitter and receiver characteristics, timing, jitter and emissions-related behavior for both PP and FP.
This matters for compliance because interoperability is not only about signaling. The radio section also has to behave consistently enough for the FP and PP to see each other, lock, exchange packets and maintain quality over the DECT air interface.
Testing and traceability
Clause 6 gives the test specification for the end system configuration. It provides separate test suite structures and test case indexes for PP and FP, and it does so layer by layer.
That makes the document useful for test planning. A lab can trace each claimed feature to the relevant test group instead of building its own interpretation of the profile.
What terms does SIST TBR 040 E1:2004 define?
- Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) - the cordless radio system used for the air interface between the FP and PP.
- Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) - the network that the terminal equipment connects to on the wired side.
- Fixed Part (FP) - the fixed DECT side that connects toward ISDN and provides the radio link to the portable side.
- Portable Part (PP) - the portable DECT side that uses the DECT radio link to reach the network.
- Interworking Unit (IWU) - the function that maps services and messages between DECT and ISDN behavior.
- Network (NWK) layer - the layer that handles call control, supplementary services and related signaling functions.
- Medium Access Control (MAC) layer - the layer that manages radio access, bearer control, broadcast and multiplexing.
- Physical (PH) layer - the radio layer that defines packet handling, timing and transmitter/receiver behavior.
Who uses SIST TBR 040 E1:2004?
SIST TBR 040 E1:2004 is used by manufacturers of DECT/ISDN terminal equipment, especially those building FP and PP products that claim profile conformance. It is also used by test laboratories and approval bodies that need a defined pass/fail basis for type approval.
Engineers and quality managers use it to check whether the product supports the right DECT/ISDN functions, message mappings and radio behavior. Buyers and integrators use it when they need to confirm that an offered terminal really matches the DECT/ISDN interworking profile being claimed.
What changed in SIST TBR 040 E1:2004 from the previous edition?
SIST TBR 040 E1:2004 is identical to TBR 040 Edition 1. The history page identifies it as the first edition of the document family.

Foreword
This Technical Basis for Regulation (TBR) has been produced by the Digital Enhanced Cordless
Telecommunications (DECT) Project of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European
Commission issued under Council Directive 83/189/EEC (as amended) laying down a procedure for the
provision of information in the field of technical standards and regulations.
The present document is intended to become a Harmonized Standard as requested by the above
mentioned mandate, the reference of which will be published in the Official Journal of the European
Communities referencing the Council Directive relating to telecommunications terminal equipment and
satellite earth station equipment, including the mutual recognition of their conformity (Directive 98/13/EC).
A common technical regulation may be established by the European Commission in accordance with the
Directive.
Technical specifications relevant to the 98/13/EC Directive are given in the TBR-Requirements Table
(TBR-RT) in annex A.

1 Scope
The present document specifies the technical characteristics to be provided by terminal equipment which
is capable of connection to an Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) and which uses Digital
European Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) for network access. The cordless transmissions for such
terminal equipment operate within the frequency band 1 880 MHz to 1 900 MHz.
A DECT terminal equipment comprises two elements, referred to as a Fixed Part (FP) and a
Portable Part (PP). The objective of the present document is to ensure air-interface interoperability
between a FP and PP following the DECT/ISDN Interworking Profile (IWP) (see note 2), where these
parts are capable of 3,1 kHz telephony applications, and where the FP is connected to the ISDN in order
to provide ISDN services (according to TBR 3 [34] and TBR 4 [35]), over the DECT air interface.
For functional parts of a FP, that are terminal equipment and which are declared to conform to the basic
Common Technical Regulations (CTRs) for DECT (see note 1) and to the DECT/ISDN IWP, the
requirements of the present document shall apply, in addition to the attachment requirements for the
appropriate ISDN.
The requirements of the present document are also applicable for the complete set of functionality of a PP
declared to conform to the DECT/ISDN IWP. For a PP, the present document is in addition to the basic
CTRs for DECT (see note 1).
Where a feature is indicated as optional it need not be provided, but where such a feature is provided, the
FP and/or PP shall conform to the requirements and tests of the present document. The present
document is structured to allow type approval of the FP and PP as separate items. For each requirement
in the present document, a test is given, including measurement methods where applicable. The terminal
equipment may be stimulated to perform the tests by additional equipment if necessary.
The present document does not apply to FPs where they form a part of the ISDN.
The present document consists of two parts (A and B) referring to the end system configuration and
intermediate system configuration respectively, were the part B (intermediate system configuration) is
expected to be amended at a later stage.
NOTE 1: The basic CTRs for DECT are the general attachment requirements (CTR 6),
requirements for telephony applications (CTR 10) and requirements for Generic
Access Profile (GAP) (CTR 22). These CTRs are derived from their respective TBRs
(TBR 6 [36], TBR 10 [37], and TBR 22 [38]).
NOTE 2: In the respect of the present document, the DECT/ISDN IWP is based on the provision
of access mappings/interworking requirements of the end system configuration
(EN 300 434-1 [9] and EN 300 434-2 [10]) and of the intermediate system
configuration (ETS 300 822 [33]).
NOTE 3: The DECT/ISDN IWP consists of two separate standards, the "end system
configuration" (EN 300 434-1 [9] and EN 300 434-2 [10]) and the "intermediate system
configuration" (ETS 300 822 [33]). The end system configuration describes how ISDN
services are offered via a DECT radio interface, when the ISDN is terminated in the
DECT FP. The intermediate system configuration describes how ISDN is provided
over DECT radio interface, with a regenerated ISDN "S" interface in the DECT PP.

4 How to use the present document
The present document currently contains the requirements, test specification and Requirements Tables
(RT) for terminal equipment which claim conformance to the DECT/ISDN IWP for end system
configuration. It is intended to add, in a later edition, the corresponding clauses for the DECT/ISDN IWP
for intermediate system configuration. The requirements applicable to a terminal equipment are only those
related to the DECT/ISDN profile to which the terminal equipment claims conformance. The present
document contains one set of tables for the PP and one set of tables for the FP. Each set of tables is
divided into subsets depending on the particular DECT layer. Each set of tables comprises:
- a test suite structure table;
- a test case index table;
- a TBR-RT features table;
- a TBR-RT procedures table;
- a messages/frames table.
If a particular feature, procedure or message specified in DECT Common Interface (CI) (EN 300 175,
parts 1 to 8 [1] to [8]) is not listed in any table, it shall be considered as out of scope of the present
document and shall not be tested.
5 Requirements for DECT/ISDN interworking for end system configuration
The DECT/ISDN Interworking Access Profile (IAP) features, services and requirements as defined in
EN 300 434-1 [9] and EN 300 434-2 [10] are considered to fall under the essential requirements specified
in Article 5 of the Council Directive 98/13/EC [39] applying to terminal equipment, given in this clause. The
column Terminal Directive Category (TD Cat) identifies the applicable clauses of Article 5 of Council
Directive 98/13/EC [39].
NOTE: This clause does not specify the exact status (e.g. mandatory or optional) of the listed
features, services and requirements. This is specified in the relevant annex.
