Description / Abstract:
Scope and Limitations. This recommended
practice suggests a set of performance parameters for digital loop
transmission between the user location and the serving office. In
the case of ISDN, the user location is defined as
(1) the T-reference point, or
(2) the U-reference point. In the case of non-ISDN, the
user location is defined as the point in the transmission circuit
analogous to the ISDNdefined T or U reference
point.
This recommended practice is limited to user information bit
rates of 200 kb / s or lower.
Purpose. The purpose of this recommended
practice is to suggest a set of transmission performance parameters
to be used in the development of standards for low bit-rate digital
channels between the user's location and an appropriate test point
at the serving office.
