Dieses Dokument legt Anforderungen und Empfehlungen für die Verwendung von Simultandolmetschplattformen bei kommunikativen Ereignissen fest, bei denen sich die Dolmetscher nicht am selben Ort wie Teilnehmer, Redner und Gebärder befinden.
In Fällen, in denen sich Dolmetscher am selben Ort wie Teilnehmer, Redner und Gebärder befinden, gilt ISO 20109, um ein hochwertiges Arbeitsumfeld und die akustische Leistung des gesamten Konferenzsystems sicherzustellen.
In Verbindung mit ISO 20108 enthält dieses Dokument Anforderungen und Empfehlungen zur Sicherstellung der Qualität von Ton und Bild und ihrer Übertragung an Dolmetscher und von Dolmetschern zu Teilnehmern, sowie zur Gestaltung der Arbeitsumgebung des Dolmetschers.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

Introduction
Using simultaneous interpreting delivery platforms is relatively new to interpreters. Parameters and
conditions for using these services in settings where the interpreters are not at the same venue as
participants, speakers and signers are evolving. Developers, providers, users and interpreters need
information about requirements and recommendations relating to these platforms.Early 2020 a Publicly Available Specification (ISO/PAS 24019, Simultaneous interpreting delivery
platforms — Requirements and recommendations) was published to structure the very recent
development of these platforms. At the same time, it was decided that a full-fledged standard was
needed to go into more depth and detail regarding the requirements and recommendations for such
platforms.The pandemic public health situation affecting the entire world completely changed the meeting and
conference market. It led to an unprecedented surge in the demand for distance meeting and interpreting
facilities, in which simultaneous interpreting delivery platforms, amongst other technologies, play an
important part.This document contains requirements and recommendations for the use of simultaneous interpreting
delivery platforms for spoken and signed language interpreting.Equipment and facilities for simultaneous interpreting are also covered in ISO 2603, ISO 4043,
ISO 20108 and ISO 20109. Conference systems, and their related interpreting systems, are covered in
ISO 22259.vi © ISO 2021 – All rights reserved

Simultaneous interpreting delivery platforms —
Requirements and recommendations
1 Scope
This document specifies requirements and recommendations for using simultaneous interpreting
delivery platforms at communicative events where the interpreters are not at the same venue as
participants, speakers and signers.In cases where interpreters are at the same venue as participants, speakers and signers, ISO 20109
shall apply to ensure a high level working environment and the acoustic performance of the overall
conference system.In conjunction with ISO 20108, this document provides requirements and recommendations for
ensuring the quality of sound and images and their transmission to interpreters and from interpreters
to participants, and for the configuration of the interpreter’s working environment.
