Foreword
This second edition European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) was produced by the Transmission
and Multiplexing (TM) Technical Committee of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute
(ETSI).
This ETS aims to meet urgent requirements of network operators and equipment manufacturers who are
designing equipment to operate with an Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) primary rate access
User Network Interface (UNI).
This ETS is based upon CCITT Recommendation I.431 and provides modifications and further
requirements to that document. It also is affected by CCITT Recommendations G.703, G.704 and G.706,
and modifications to these CCITT Recommendations are provided within this ETS.
This ETS also takes into account requirements contained in ECMA Standard 104: "Physical layer at the
primary rate access interface between data processing equipment and private switching networks (1985)",
which are given in annex A.
This ETS consists of 3 parts as follows:
Part 1: "Layer 1 specification";
Part 2: "Conformance test specification for interface I and I ";
A B
Part 3: "Implementation Conformance Statement (ICS) and Implementation eXtra Information for Testing
(IXIT) proforma specification for lnterface I and I ".

1 Scope
This second edition European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) specifies requirements and test
principles for the ISDN 2 048 kbit/s primary rate UNI including the physical, electrical and functional
characteristics and the information exchange with higher layers. Compliance with this ETS ensures that,
with regard to layer 1 interface aspects, equipment for use with ISDN primary rate access is portable
within countries that adhere to this ETS and, furthermore, that interworking with higher layer protocols for
ISDN is supported.
This ETS is applicable to equipment having interface I or I for the connection to the ISDN primary rate
A B
UNI intended to be installed on customers' premises. In accordance with CCITT
Recommendation I.411 [1], this ETS is to be applied to interfaces at reference points S, T and S/T
(coincident S and T) of the ISDN reference configuration.
This ETS is applicable for ISDN channel arrangements as defined in CCITT Recommendation I.412 [2],
as far as the primary rate at 2 048 kbit/s is concerned.
Annex A specifies additional requirements for interfaces at reference point S.
This ETS does not specify:
- safety requirements;
- interface or equipment overvoltage protection requirements;
- immunity requirements against electromagnetic interferences;
- emission limitation requirements.

3 Definitions, symbols and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of this ETS, the following definitions apply:
Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI): Is a code where ONEs are represented by alternate positive and
negative pulses, and ZEROs by spaces.
High-Density Bipolar 3 (HDB3): Is a modified AMI code. An exception occurs for blocks of 4 successive
ZEROs. Each block of 4 successive ZEROs is replaced by OOOV or BOOV where B represents an
inserted pulse conforming to the AMI and V represents an AMI violation. The choice of OOOV or BOOV is
made so that the number of B pulses between consecutive V pulses is odd. In other words, successive V
pulses are of alternate polarity so that no direct current (dc) component is introduced.
interface I : User side of the ISDN UNI for the primary rate access.
A
interface I : Network side of the ISDN UNI for the primary rate access.
B
network side: NT1, LT and ET functional groups in case of an interface at the T reference point; or
relevant parts of the NT2 functional group in case of an interface at the S reference point.
network option 1: The digital link between interface at the T and V reference point does not provide a
CRC-4 processing, i.e. the CRC-4 is terminated in the TE and the ET. This digital link is called to be
"without CRC processing" (see subclause 7.2.2.2).
NOTE 1: This option is not provided by the public ISDN at the T reference point. However it
might be used for Private Telecommunications Network Exchange (PTNX)
interconnection using unstructured 2 048 kbit/s leased lines.

---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------

SIST ETS 300 011-1 E2:2003
Page 11
ETS 300 011-1: March 1998
network option 2: The digital link between interface at the T and V reference point provides CRC-4
processing in the NT1 and the ET according ETR 001 [9]. Therefore the combinations of CRC-4 error
information and Remote Alarm Indication (RAI) indicate the fault condition; FC1 or FC4
(see subclause 7.2.2.1).
NOTE 2: Option 3 of CCITT Recommendation I.604 with CRC-4 processing in NT1, LT and ET
is not relevant for this ETS.
Network Termination (NT): An equipment providing interface I .
B
NOTE 3: This term is used in this ETS to indicate network-terminating aspects of NT1 and NT2
functional groups where these have an I interface.
B
Network Termination Type 1 (NT1): This functional group includes functions broadly equivalent to layer
1 (physical) of the Open System Interconnection (OSI) reference model. These functions are associated
with the proper physical and electromagnetic termination of the network. NT1 functions are:
- line transmission termination;
- layer 1 maintenance functions and performance monitoring;
- timing;
- layer 1 multiplexing;
- interface termination.
Network Termination Type 2 (NT2): This functional group includes functions broadly equivalent to layer
1 and higher layers of the CCITT Recommendation X.200 [19] reference model. Private
Telecommunication Network Exchanges (PTNXs), local area networks and terminal controllers are
examples of equipment or combinations of equipment that provide NT2 functions. NT2 functions include:
- layer 2 and layer 3 protocol handling;
- layer 2 and layer 3 multiplexing;
- switching;
- concentration;
- maintenance functions;
- interface termination and other layer 1 functions.
Private Telecommunication Network Exchange (PTNX): A nodal identity in a private
telecommunication network which provides autonomous and automatic switching and call handling
functions used for the provision of telecommunication services which are based on the definitions for
those of the public ISDN.
Private Network Termination (PNT): A remote unit of equipment which terminates a transmission
system employed between the PTNX and the interface I and the S reference point.
B
Terminal Adapter (TA): An equipment with interface I and one or more auxiliary interfaces that allow
A
non-ISDN terminals to be served by an ISDN UNI.
Terminal Equipment (TE): An equipment providing an interface I .
A
NOTE 4: This term is used in this ETS to indicate terminal-terminating layer 1 aspects of TE1,
TA and NT2 functional groups, where these have an I interface.
A
NOTE 5: In annex A, this definition applies with the exception that the NT2 functional grouping is
not covered.
Terminal Equipment Type 1 (TE1): This functional group includes functions belonging to the functional
group TE, and with an interface that complies with the ISDN UNI standard.
user side: Terminal terminating layer 1 aspects of TE1, TA and NT2 functional groups.

4 Type of configuration
The type of configuration applies only to the layer 1 characteristics of the interface and does not imply any
constraints on modes of operation at higher layers.
4.1 Point-to-point
The primary rate shall support only the point-to-point configuration.
Point-to-point configuration at layer 1 implies that for each direction only one source (transmitter) and one
sink (receiver) are connected to the interface. The maximum reach of the interface in the point-to-point
configuration is limited by specification for the electrical characteristics of transmitted and received pulses
and the type of interconnecting cable.

The magnitude of the characteristic impedance of symmetrical type interface cable shall be 120 W – 20 %
in a frequency range from 200 kHz to 1 MHz and 120 W – 10 % at 1 MHz.
The use of shielded interface cables may be required to meet radiation emission and immunity
requirements. Therefore the Terminal Equipment (TE) and the Network Termination (NT) shall have
provided a point on the equipment where a shield of the interface cable can, and if provided shall be
connected to.
This point shall be designed respecting EMC requirements providing access to the signal reference for the
transmitter and receiver of the equipment interface.
Application of interface cable with individually shielded pairs or with a common shield for both pairs shall
be possible.
