Foreword
This European Telecommunications Standard (ETS) was produced by the Signalling, Protocols and
Switching (SPS) Technical Committee of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI)
and was adopted, having passed through the ETSI standards approval procedure.
This standard is based on the following considerations:
(a) the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) will offer the universal interfaces
to connect subscriber terminals according to the reference configurations
described in CCITT Recommendation I.411;
(b) during the evolution of ISDN, however, there will exist for a considerable period
DTEs conforming to CCITT Recommendations X.21, X.21bis and X.20bis which
have to be connected to the ISDN;
(c) D-channel signalling protocol is described in ETS 300 125 and ETS 300 102-1;
(d) the X.21bis DTEs are an evolution of V-series DTEs, which also provide
interworking capability with X.21 DTEs over PDN services, and which use the
network provided signal element timing and may have specific call control
features to comply with the X.21 calling protocol;
(e) the X.20bis based DTEs are an evolution of V-series DTEs, which are operating
in the asynchronous mode and which may have call control features to comply
with the X.20 calling protocol;
(f) this Standard is an application of CCITT Recommendations X.30 and V.110.

Scope
(1) The scope of this standard covers the connection of X.21 and X.21bis based terminals of user classes
of service 3 to 7 and 19 to the ISDN operating in accordance with circuit-switched or leased circuit
services;
(2) The scope of this standard also covers the connection of X.20bis based Terminals of CCITT user
classes of service 1 and 2, and 19200 bit/s and of asynchronous data rates of 600, 1200, 2400, 3600,
4800, 7200, 9600, 12000, 14400 to the ISDN operating in accordance with circuit-switched or leased
circuit services;
(3) The reference configurations of paragraph 1 of this Standard shall apply;
(4) The terminal adaptor (TA) functions to support X.21, X.21bis and X.20bis based DTEs, including
- bit rate adaption functions,
- call establishment functions,
- mapping functions,
- ready for data alignment,
shall be performed as outlined in section 2.
(5) The scope of this standard only covers the bit rate conversion, which is caused by the connection of
existing terminals to the ISDN user/network interface, but does not cover the requirements on bit rate
conversion caused by the inter-operation of terminals with different bit rates (ISDN/CSPN interworking);
(6) This standard does not specify a particular implementation but specifies how the functions must be
implemented when they are supported by a particular Terminal Adaptor equipment.

1.2 Network configuration
The specification of terminal adaption functions takes account of the network configuration and the end-to-
end connection types shown in figure 2 in which the associated terminal equipment TE1 and TE2 may be
involved. The TA functions are described in section 2.

IWF: Interworking Functions
Figure 2: Network interworking configuration example
(The IWF are outside the scope of this standard)
The terminals TE1 and TE2 are physically and logically connected to the ISDN where the call is handled.
The TA performs the necessary bit rate adaption, the signalling conversion from X.21 signalling to the D-
channel signalling and vice-versa (X.21 mapping) and ready for data alignment. Interworking with
dedicated networks, e.g. a CSPDN, will be provided on the basis of trunk lines interconnection by using
interworking functions (IWF).
The following principles shall apply:
i) The non-voice services within the ISDN should basically not diverge from what is being
developed in X-Series of CCITT Recommendations. This refers to the various aspects
concerning quality of service, user facilities, call progress signals (see e.g. X.2 and
X.96). However existing features would be enhanced and additional features would
also be developed if account were taken of the new ISDN customer capabilities (e.g.
multiterminal arrangements, user rate at 64 kbit/s, simultaneous multimedia access as
well as the possible solution for compatibility checking).
ii) Integration of X.21 based services into the ISDN is applicable to user classes of
service 3 to 7 and 19. Integration of X.20bis based services into the ISDN is applicable
to user classes of service 1 and 2, and other asynchronous user bit rates.

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------

PSIST ETS 300 103:1996
Page 12
ETS 300 103: December 1990
iii) Terminals TE1 and TE2 connected to an ISDN are using the ISDN numbering scheme
(see CCITT Recommendation E.164).
1.3 Interworking situation
Bearing in mind that this ETS defines the functions performed by X.21 terminal adaptors (TA X.21),
X.21bis terminal adaptors (TA X.21bis) and X.20bis terminal adaptors (TA X.20bis), the following cases of
interworking between these terminal adaptors and between these terminal adaptors and DTEs connected
to CSPDN and PSTN may appear :
a) For user class of service 3 to 7:
(1) TA X.21 TA X.21
(2) TA X.21 TA X.21bis
(3) TA X.21bis TA X.21bis
(4) TA X.21 DTE X.21
(5) TA X.21 DTE X.21bis
(6) TA X.21 V-series DTE
(7) TA X.21bis DTE X.21
(8) TA X.21bis DTE X.21bis
(9) TA X.21bis V-series DTE
b) For user class of service 19:
(10) TA X.21 TA X.21
(11) TA X.21 TA X.21bis
(12) TA X.21bis TA X.21bis
(13) TA X.21 TE1 (S/T reference point)
(14) TA X.21bis TE1 (S/T reference point)
c) For user classes of service 1 and 2, and other asynchronous user bit rates.
(15) TA X.20bis TA X.20bis
(16) TA X.20bis DTE X.20bis
(17) TA X.20bis V-series DTE
NOTE 1: This ETS is intended to cover all TA-functions necessary to allow interworking as listed
above. Currently, this ETS covers all TA-functions necessary to allow interworking
between DTEs connected to ISDN and to CSPDN with the following exceptions:
1) for X.21bis and X.20bis only, the call set-up procedure with direct call has been
explicitly covered, but other interface arrangements of X.21bis and X.20bis are not
precluded,
2) for X.21bis, the half duplex mode of operation is not specified.
This applies to all the cases listed above, where at least one X.21bis or X.20bis
terminal is involved. Alignment with the functions provided by the interworking units
may be necessary when the relevant Recommendations are available.
NOTE 2: With the interworking cases 1-17 mentioned above, the functions provided by TA
X.21bis, TA X.20bis and the functions provided by TA V.110 should be compatible.

2 Terminal adaption functions
The adaption functions to support X.21, X.21bis and X.20bis based DTEs can be subdivided into three
areas, namely:
- bit rate adaption function;
- mapping functions of X.21 to related D-channel call control signalling procedures ;
- ready for data alignment.
Separate TAs may be provided either for each CCITT Recommendation X.1 user class of service or for a
group of user classes of service. A universal TA may be provided for all user classes of service 3 to 7 or
19 or 1, 2, or other asynchronous user bit rates. Within this ETS only such functions are described which
refer to single rate TAs.

Page 7ETS 300 103: December 1990ForewordThis European Telecommunications Standard (ETS) was produced by the Signalling, Protocols andSwitching (SPS) Technical Committee of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI)and was adopted, having passed through the ETSI standards approval procedure.This standard is based on the following considerations:(a)the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) will offer the universal interfacesto connect subscriber terminals according to the reference configurationsdescribed in CCITT Recommendation I.411;(b)during the evolution of ISDN, however, there will exist for a considerable periodDTEs conforming to CCITT Recommendations X.21, X.21bis and X.20bis whichhave to be connected to the ISDN;(c)D-channel signalling protocol is described in ETS 300 125 and ETS 300 102-1;(d)the X.21bis DTEs are an evolution of V-series DTEs, which also provideinterworking capability with X.21 DTEs over PDN services, and which use thenetwork provided signal element timing and may have specific call controlfeatures to comply with the X.21 calling protocol;(e)the X.20bis based DTEs are an evolution of V-series DTEs, which are operatingin the asynchronous mode and which may have call control features to complywith the X.20 calling protocol;(f)this Standard is an application of CCITT Recommendations X.30 and V.110.PSIST ETS 300 103:1996

Page 9ETS 300 103: December 1990Scope(1) The scope of this standard covers the connection of X.21 and X.21bis based terminals of user classesof service 3 to 7 and 19 to the ISDN operating in accordance with circuit-switched or leased circuitservices;(2) The scope of this standard also covers the connection of X.20bis based Terminals of CCITT userclasses of service 1 and 2, and 19200 bit/s and of asynchronous data rates of 600, 1200, 2400, 3600,4800, 7200, 9600, 12000, 14400 to the ISDN operating in accordance with circuit-switched or leasedcircuit services;(3) The reference configurations of paragraph 1 of this Standard shall apply;(4) The terminal adaptor (TA) functions to support X.21, X.21bis and X.20bis based DTEs, including-bit rate adaption functions,-call establishment functions,-mapping functions,-ready for data alignment,shall be performed as outlined in section 2.(5) The scope of this standard only covers the bit rate conversion, which is caused by the connection ofexisting terminals to the ISDN user/network interface, but does not cover the requirements on bit rateconversion caused by the inter-operation of terminals with different bit rates (ISDN/CSPN interworking);(6) This standard does not specify a particular implementation but specifies how the functions must beimplemented when they are supported by a particular Terminal Adaptor equipment.PSIST ETS 300 103:1996

Page 11ETS 300 103: December 19901.2Network configurationThe specification of terminal adaption functions takes account of the network configuration and the end-to-end connection types shown in figure 2 in which the associated terminal equipment TE1 and TE2 may beinvolved. The TA functions are described in section 2.X.21/X.21 bis/X.20 bisS, TS, TS, TX.21/X.21 bis/X.20 bisTE1TE2TATATE2ISDNIWFDTEDTEdata networkorpublic switchedtelephone networkCircuit switchedpublicIWF: Interworking FunctionsFigure 2: Network interworking configuration example(The IWF are outside the scope of this standard)The terminals TE1 and TE2 are physically and logically connected to the ISDN where the call is handled.The TA performs the necessary bit rate adaption, the signalling conversion from X.21 signalling to the D-channel signalling and vice-versa (X.21 mapping) and ready for data alignment. Interworking withdedicated networks, e.g. a CSPDN, will be provided on the basis of trunk lines interconnection by usinginterworking functions (IWF).The following principles shall apply:i)The non-voice services within the ISDN should basically not diverge from what is beingdeveloped in X-Series of CCITT Recommendations. This refers to the various aspectsconcerning quality of service, user facilities, call progress signals (see e.g. X.2 andX.96). However existing features would be enhanced and additional features wouldalso be developed if account were taken of the new ISDN customer capabilities (e.g.multiterminal arrangements, user rate at 64 kbit/s, simultaneous multimedia access aswell as the possible solution for compatibility checking).ii)Integration of X.21 based services into the ISDN is applicable to user classes ofservice 3 to 7 and 19. Integration of X.20bis based services into the ISDN is applicableto user classes of service 1 and 2, and other asynchronous user bit rates.PSIST ETS 300 103:1996



Page 12ETS 300 103: December 1990iii)Terminals TE1 and TE2 connected to an ISDN are using the ISDN numbering scheme(see CCITT Recommendation E.164).1.3Interworking situationBearing in mind that this ETS defines the functions performed by X.21 terminal adaptors (TA X.21),X.21bis terminal adaptors (TA X.21bis) and X.20bis terminal adaptors (TA X.20bis), the following cases ofinterworking between these terminal adaptors and between these terminal adaptors and DTEs connectedto CSPDN and PSTN may appear :a) For user class of service 3 to 7:(1) TA X.21TA X.21(2) TA X.21TA X.21bis(3) TA X.21bisTA X.21bis(4) TA X.21DTE X.21(5) TA X.21DTE X.21bis(6) TA X.21V-series DTE(7) TA X.21bisDTE X.21(8) TA X.21bisDTE X.21bis(9) TA X.21bisV-series DTEb) For user class of service 19:(10) TA X.21TA X.21(11) TA X.21TA X.21bis(12) TA X.21bisTA X.21bis(13) TA X.21TE1 (S/T reference point)(14) TA X.21bisTE1 (S/T reference point)c) For user classes of service 1 and 2, and other asynchronous user bit rates.(15) TA X.20bisTA X.20bis(16) TA X.20bisDTE X.20bis(17) TA X.20bisV-series DTENOTE 1:This ETS is intended to cover all TA-functions necessary to allow interworking as listedabove. Currently, this ETS covers all TA-functions necessary to allow interworkingbetween DTEs connected to ISDN and to CSPDN with the following exceptions:1) for X.21bis and X.20bis only, the call set-up procedure with direct call has beenexplicitly covered, but other interface arrangements of X.21bis and X.20bis are notprecluded,2) for X.21bis, the half duplex mode of operation is not specified.This applies to all the cases listed above, where at least one X.21bis or X.20bisterminal is involved. Alignment with the functions provided by the interworking unitsmay be necessary when the relevant Recommendations are available.NOTE 2:With the interworking cases 1-17 mentioned above, the functions provided by TAX.21bis, TA X.20bis and the functions provided by TA V.110 should be compatible.PSIST ETS 300 103:1996



Page 13ETS 300 103: December 19902Terminal adaption functionsThe adaption functions to support X.21, X.21bis and X.20bis based DTEs can be subdivided into threeareas, namely:- bit rate adaption function;- mapping functions of X.21 to related D-channel call control signalling procedures ;- ready for data alignment.Separate TAs may be provided either for each CCITT Recommendation X.1 user class of service or for agroup of user classes of service. A universal TA may be provided for all user classes of service 3 to 7 or19 or 1, 2, or other asynchronous user bit rates. Within this ETS only such functions are described whichrefer to single rate TAs.2.1Adaption function for DTEs conforming to X.1 user classes of service 3 to 62.1.1Bit rate adaption functions2.1.1.1General approachThe bit rate adaption functions within the TA are shown in figure 3.
