Overview

SIST EN 301 067-2:2001 is a European Standard developed by the Slovenski inštitut za standardizacijo (SIST) and aligns with ETSI EN 301 067-2 V1.1.3. This standard focuses on the Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (B-ISDN) and the Digital Subscriber Signalling System No. two (DSS2) protocol. It specifically addresses the connection characteristics and negotiation mechanisms during the call and connection establishment phase. The document provides the Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma specification, which serves as a structured tool for suppliers and implementers to declare conformance with the relevant protocol requirements as outlined in EN 301 067-1.

The standard is essential for the telecommunications industry, particularly for those involved in designing, implementing, or testing B-ISDN systems that utilize the DSS2 protocol for high-speed broadband services.

Key Topics

• PICS Proforma Specification: The core of the document is the PICS proforma-a formal questionnaire that identifies which protocol features and options have been implemented.
• B-ISDN & DSS2 Protocol: Specifies how the DSS2 protocol is used for negotiating connection characteristics in broadband ISDN environments.
• Call/Connection Establishment: Focuses on protocol behaviors and negotiation processes during the setup phase of a call or connection.
• User and Network Roles: Differentiates between user-side and network-side protocol requirements and options.
• Conformance Requirements: Outlines the obligations for suppliers claiming compliance, including mandatory and optional protocol capabilities.
• ISO/IEC 9646 Alignment: Incorporates international guidance for protocol conformance statements, ensuring consistency with global practices.

Applications

SIST EN 301 067-2:2001 is vital for a variety of practical applications within telecommunications and network equipment development:

• Product Development: Equipment manufacturers, such as vendors of broadband network devices, use the PICS proforma to document and declare which protocol components are supported in their solutions.
• System Integration: Integrators use the completed PICS proforma to verify compatibility and interoperability between devices and networks that comply with B-ISDN DSS2 protocol specifications.
• Testing and Certification: Test labs and certification bodies leverage the PICS as a baseline to assess conformance, guide test suite selection, and streamline certification processes.
• Procurement and Compliance: Network operators and service providers employ PICS documents in procurement requirements, ensuring that purchased equipment meets mandated standards for B-ISDN and supports essential DSS2 protocol features.
• Quality Assurance: Helps identify static conformance of an implementation by comparing claimed support for protocol features with normative requirements.

Related Standards

For comprehensive coverage and context, the following related standards are directly referenced within SIST EN 301 067-2:2001:

• EN 301 067-1: Protocol specification for DSS2 protocol connection characteristics and negotiation (core functional requirements).
• EN 300 443-1: B-ISDN DSS2 protocol user-network interface layer 3 specification for basic call/bearer control.
• EN 300 443-2: PICS proforma for DSS2 basic call/bearer control.
• ISO/IEC 9646-1: General concepts for Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) conformance testing methodology.
• ISO/IEC 9646-7: Guidelines for implementation conformance statements (ICS/PICS proforma design and use).

By adhering to SIST EN 301 067-2:2001, organizations ensure robust, interoperable telecommunications solutions that meet European and international requirements for broadband ISDN services and associated signalling protocols.
