1.0 Introduction 1.1 Scope This part sets forth the minimum network protection requirements for ISDN Terminal Equipment (TE). Such TE is intended for connection to common carrier provided facilities for both Basic Rate Access (BRA) and Primary Rate Access (PRA). The requirements contained herein are intended only for the protection of the telecommunications network. Conformance to these technical requirements will not ensure compatibility with wireline carrier services. Note: Requirements in this part do not apply to DS-1 digital interfaces. Refer to CS-03 Part II of this specification for all digital interface requirements. 1.2 Network Protection Requirements 1.2.1 Technical Requirements Table The Technical Requirements tables provide a cross reference between the TE interfaces and the network protection requirements with which they shall comply. These are marked with a single asterisk (*). Network Protection Devices (NPD) may be used to comply with the requirements of Sections 2.0 and 3.2 as described in the Requirements tables. Compliance with network protection requirements at the U reference point may be established only when both the NTl and TE functions are connected together. In combination the two functions will then fully comply with all of the requirements of this specification. Section 3.5 applies to TE that performs the digital encoding function for analogue voice band signals intended to be decoded in the network. 1

1.3 Sequence of Equipment Testing 1.3.1 Overall Sequence The tests shall be performed in the following order: Section 1.4 Section 1.5 Section 2.2 (Part I) Section 2.3 (Part I) Section 3.0 Section 2.1 (Part I) Section 2.4 (Part I) Section 2.5 (Part I) Section 1.5 Section 2.2 (Part I) Section 2.3 (Part I) Section 3.0 Connecting Arrangements Operational Check Dielectric Strength Hazardous Voltage Limitations (As applicable) Network Protection Requirements and Tests Mechanical Shock Surge Voltage Power Line Surge Operational Check Dielectric Strength Hazardous Voltage Limitations (As applicable) Network Protection Requirements and Tests Notes: (1) Sections 2.3 and 2.4 of Part I specify the requirements for: (a) Environmental conditioning electrical stress prior to the tests of Section 3.0. (b) Hazardous voltage isolation. (2) The steady state voltage stress tests specified in Section 2.3 of Part I, shall be performed prior to the surge voltage requirements of Part I, Section 2.4. 1.4 Connecting Arrangements ISDN TE intended for direct electrical connection shall be equipped with a connector in accordance with Part III. When diagrams shown in this document make reference to tip and ring network interface connections these references to tip and ring shall be understood to include tip 1 and ring 1 for 4-wire circuits when appropriate. 1.5 Operational Check When the operational checks are performed before the application of electrical stress, the TE shall be fully operational, in accordance with the manufacturer's operating instructions, for those features necessary to allow demonstration of compliance with all applicable requirements of Section 3.0. When the operational checks are repeated after the electrical stress as described in Section 2.0, it is permissible that the TE be partially or fully inoperable. 4

2.0 Electrical and Mechanical Stresses The technical requirements and methods of application for electrical and mechanical stresses are given in Part I, Section 2.0. 3.0 Network Protection Requirements and Tests 3.1 Laboratory Environment All tests to determine compliance with this specification shall be conducted in a laboratory environment at normal room temperature and humidity. 3.2 Allowable DC Energy 3.2.1 Requirement TE shall not impress DC potentials at the network interface that exceed the limits outlined in 3.2.1.1 and 3.2.1.2. 3.2.1.1 Allowable Positive DC Potential TE that is intended to connect to the network shall not apply any DC potential that is positive with respect to ground potential. 3.2.1.2 Allowable Negative DC Potential TE shall not apply any DC potential that is more negative than 60V DC with respect to ground potential. 3.2.2 Method of Measurement (1) Connect the TE under test to the test circuit as shown in Figure 3.2. (2) Operate switch S1 to position "a" and record the voltmeter reading. (3) Operate switch S1 to position "b" and record the voltmeter reading. 5

Note: When the TE makes provision for an external connection to ground (G), the TE shall be connected to ground. When the TE makes no provision for an external ground, the TE shall be placed on a ground plane which is connected to ground and has overall dimensions at least 50% greater than the corresponding dimensions of the TE. The TE shall be centrally located on the ground plane without any additional connection to ground. Figure 3.2 Allowable DC Energy Measurement 6

3.3 Transmitted Digital Signal Power 3.3.1 Total Power 3.3.1.1 Requirements For a transmitted pattern of all "ones", the power at 772 khz shall not exceed +19 dbm and the power at 1.544 MHz shall be at least 25 db less, when measured in a 3 khz bandwidth across a 100 ohms ± 1%, 1W resistor, when averaged over a 3 second interval, through the minimum length of cable specified by the applicant. 3.3.1.2 Method of Measurement - Total Power (With All "Ones" Pattern) (1) Connect the TE to the test circuit as shown in Figure 3.3(a). (2) Arrange the TE to generate an all "ones" signal pattern. When this is not possible, use the method of measurement in Section 3.3.1.3. (3) Adjust the frequency selective voltmeter or spectrum analyzer to obtain a 3 khz pass band centred at 772 khz. (4) Measure the transmitted signal power level at 772 khz averaged over 3 seconds. (5) Arrange the frequency selective voltmeter or spectrum analyzer to obtain a 3 khz pass band centred at 1.544 MHz. (6) Measure the transmitted signal power level at 1.544 MHz averaged over 3 seconds. (7) For TE equipped with line build-out capability, repeat step (4) to confirm compliance with the attenuation step requirements of Section 3.3.1. 7

R1 = 100 ohms ± 1%; 1 W. R2 = 100 ohms including terminating impedance of the metre. Note: When the TE makes provision for an external connection to ground (G), the TE shall be connected to ground. When the TE makes no provision for an external ground, the TE shall be placed on a ground plane which is connected to ground and has overall dimensions at least 50% greater than the corresponding dimensions of the TE. The TE shall be centrally located on the ground plane without any additional connection to ground. Figure 3.3(a) Measurement of Transmitted Signal Power at 1.544 MHz and 772 khz 8

3.3.1.3 Method of Measurement - Total Power (Alternative Method) The following alternative method of measurement may be used when all "ones" pattern cannot be achieved: (1) Using the test circuit shown in Figure 3.3(c) measure the amplitude of the PRA pulse. Calculate the power at 772 khz in dbm using the formula: (4/PI x V x.707) 2 P772 (dbm) = 10 x log [))))))))))))))))))] + 30 200 where V is the amplitude of the PRA pulse. (2) Connect the TE to the test circuit shown in Figure 3.3(b). Adjust the trigger level of the frequency counter at the midpoint of the PRA pulse amplitude. Measure the frequency of the active PRA channel. (3) Measure the 1.544 MHz level using the test circuit shown in Figure 3.3(a) and steps (5) and (6) of Section 3.3.1.2. (4) Calculate the ones density using the formula: result from step 2 (khz) Ones density % = )))))))))))))))))))))))) x 100 772 (5) With reference to Table 3.3.1 use the ones density calculated in step (4) above to obtain the correction factor to be added to the level measured in step (3) above. In the event that the calculated ones density does not exactly equal a value shown in the table select the closest value.

R1 = 100 ohms ± 1%; 1 W. R2 = 100 ohms including terminating impedance of the metre. Note: When the TE makes provision for an external connection to ground (G), the TE shall be connected to ground. When the TE makes no provision for an external ground, the TE shall be placed on a ground plane which is connected to ground and has overall dimensions at least 50% greater than the corresponding dimensions of the TE. The TE shall be centrally located on the ground plane without any additional connection to ground. Figure 3.3(b) Measurement of Digital Signal Power (Alternative Method) 10

R = 100 ohms ± 1%; 1 W. Note: When the TE makes provision for an external connection to ground (G), the TE shall be connected to ground. When the TE makes no provision for an external ground, the TE shall be placed on a ground plane which is connected to ground and has overall dimensions at least 50% greater than the corresponding dimensions of the TE. The TE shall be centrally located on the ground plane without any additional connection to ground. Figure 3.3(c) Measurement of Pulse Amplitude (Alternative Method) 11

3.3.2 Pulse Shape 3.3.2.1 Requirement The shape of an isolated pulse shall fall within the mask in Figure 3.3(d) when measured at the end of the shortest cable specified by the applicant. Note: The voltage within a time slot containing a zero may be greater than this limit because of the undershoot remaining from preceding pulses (i.e. intersymbol interference). The use of an alternate zero and ones (dotting pattern) signal will minimize this problem. 3.3.2.2 Method of Measurement (1) Connect the TE to the test circuit as shown in Figure 3.3(e). (2) Use an oscilloscope which is capable of balanced differential measurement and has an input bandwidth of 100 MHz; with a measurement accuracy for the pulse time interval and voltage which will enable comparison of both positive and negative pulses for compliance with the specified pulse mask. (3) Terminate the transmit pair (T and R) of the TE digital interface in a resistive load of 100 ohms ±1%, 1 W using the shortest cable specified by the applicant. (4) Arrange the TE in accordance with the equipment instructions, so that it generates a quasi-random or dotting pattern at the network interface. (5) Synchronize the oscilloscope to a negative pulse of the incoming 1.544 Mbps digital signal so that a single positive pulse is clearly displayed. (6) Compare the displayed pulse with the pulse mask. (7) Synchronize the oscilloscope to a positive pulse of the incoming 1.544 Mbps signal so that a single negative pulse is clearly displayed and repeat step (6). 12

The TE shall be centrally located on the ground plane without any additional connection to ground. Figure 3.3(e) Measurement of Pulse Shape 14

3.4 Transverse Balance at U Reference Point 3.4.1 Requirement TE intended to connect to ISDN access, either Basic Rate Access or Primary Rate Access, at the U reference point shall comply with the following requirements: The transverse balance at the network interface shall equal or exceed the minimum values shown in Figure 3.4(a) at all frequencies as specified, under all reasonable applications of earth ground to the TE. Transverse balance is defined as: 20 log 10 (Vm/Vl). For the purpose of this Section 1.544 Mbps = 1.544 MHz. Figure 3.4(a) Transverse Balance Requirements at the U Reference Point 15

3.4.2 Method of Measurement (1) Connect the TE as shown in Figure 3.4(b). (2) Set the spectrum analyzer/tracking generator to sweep the appropriate frequency range: (a) for Basic Rate Access (BRA): 200 Hz to 192 khz; (b) for Primary Rate Access (PRA): 12 khz to 1.544 MHz. (3) Adjust the tracking generator voltage to measure -10 dbv (316 mv) across the calibration test resistor R CAL. (4) Connect the detector across resistor RL. (5) Adjust capacitor, C1, until a minimum voltage across resistor RL is obtained. This represents the highest degree to which the bridge can be balanced, this balance measurement must be at least 20 db better than the requirement for the applicable frequency band. If this degree of balance cannot be attained, further attention should be given to the component selection and the construction of the test circuit. (6) Reverse the polarity using switch S2. If the longitudinal voltage (Vl) changes by less than 1 db, the calibration is acceptable. If the longitudinal voltage changes by more than 1 db it indicates the bridge needs further adjustment to be sufficiently balanced to accurately measure the TE. Repeat the calibration process until the measurements differ by less than 1 db while maintaining the 20 db minimum balance noted in step (5) above. (7) Replace the calibration resistor with the TE. (8) Measure the voltage across the tip and ring of the TE. This is the metallic reference voltage (Vm). (9) Measure the voltage across resistor RL. This is the longitudinal voltage (Vl). (10) Calculate the balance using the following formula: Notes: Balance M/L (db) = 20 log 10 (Vm/Vl) (1) If the readings are taken in dbv, then the equation can be simplified to the following: Balance M/L (db) = Vm(dBV) - Vl (dbv) (2) TE which is not normally grounded should be set in its normal at rest position directly on a grounded plane whose overall dimensions are at least 50% greater than the footprint of the TE. From a transverse balance standpoint, this represents a worst case condition (i.e. the closest proximity to ground is likely to be encountered by the TE). 16

Notes: (1) A 3pF Cap. may be required between tip to ground or ring to ground depending on bridge construction. (2) Use a transformer having an appropriate frequency response for the frequency band under test. (3) The combined impedance of the 50 ohm generator plus R1 shall equal the nominal impedance of the device under test. When the TE makes provision for an external connection to ground (G), the TE shall be connected to ground. When the TE makes no provision for an external ground, the TE shall be placed on a ground plane which is connected to ground and has overall dimensions at least 50% greater than the corresponding dimensions of the TE. The TE shall be centrally located on the ground plane without any additional connection to ground. Figure 3.4(b) Transverse Balance Bridge for Basic and Primary Rate Access 17

3.5 Transmitted Encoded Analogue Signals 3.5.1 General The requirements of this section apply to ISDN TE that performs analogue to digital conversion for other than live voice signals or generates signals directly in digital form which are subject to being decoded to voice band analogue signals in the network. These requirements ensure that when such signals are decoded in the network that network harm will not occur due to high signal levels, restricted frequencies, etc. When such encoded analogue signals are decoded in accordance with the specifications for the µ255 PCM encoding law, as set forth in ITU-T Recommendation G.711, they shall comply with the requirements of this section. The requirements of this section do not apply to ISDN terminal interfaces which transmit digital signals that do not contain encoded analogue signals. 3.5.2 Transmitted Encoded Analogue Signal Power - Access Facilities 3.5.2.1 Requirement (1) The maximum equivalent power of encoded analogue signals at the network interface, as derived by a zero-level decoder on any B-channel shall not exceed the following limits (a) 0 dbm when averaged over 250 ms for all signals other than live voice and DTMF signals (b) -3 dbm for DTMF signals when averaged over 3 seconds (c) -6 dbm for V.90 or V.92 modem signals when averaged over 3 seconds (d) -9 dbm for all other signals other than live voice when averaged over 3 seconds Notes: (1) All limits are with reference to 600 ohms. (2) TE providing through transmission capability to other public switched network connections shall meet the requirements of Table 3.5.2. 18

Notes: (1) The source impedance for all measurements shall be 600 ohms. All ports shall be terminated in appropriate loop or private line channel simulator circuits or 600 ohm terminations. (2) These ports are for 2-wire, on-premises station ports to separately registered TE. (3) These through gain limitations are applicable to multi-port systems where channels are not derived by time or frequency compression methods. TE employing such compression techniques shall assure that equivalent compensation for through gain parameters is evaluated and included in the test report. (4) TE and network protection devices may have net amplification exceeding the limitations of this subsection provided that, for each network interface type to be connected, the absolute signal power levels specified in this section are not exceeded. (5) The indicated gain is in the direction which results when moving from the horizontal entry toward the vertical entry. (6) TE or network protection devices with the capability for through transmission from voice band private line channels or voice band metallic channels to other telephone network interfaces shall assure that the absolute signal power levels specified in this section, for each telephone network interface type to be connected, are not exceeded. (7) TE or network protection devices with the capability for through transmission from voice band private line channels or voice band metallic private line channels to other telephone network interfaces shall assure, for each telephone network interface type to be connected, that signals with energy in the 2450 Hz to 2750 Hz band are not through transmitted unless there is at least an equal amount of energy in the 800 Hz to 2450 Hz band within 20 milliseconds of application of signal. 3.5.2.2 Method of Measurement (l) Connect the TE to the test circuit as shown in Figure 3.5(a). Select a B channel output from the B channel decoder. (2) Set the filter cut-off frequencies to achieve a 100 Hz to 4000 Hz pass band and arrange the voltmeter to read power in dbm averaged over 3 seconds. (3) Operate the TE at maximum gain to transmit each of its possible output signals other than live voice, including voice band data signals. If the TE has input interfaces for connection to registered analogue terminals, apply a white noise test signal at -9 dbm at such interfaces. (4) Record the maximum power level reading in dbm. (5) Calculate the gain of the through transmission path, from the output level measured in step (4) and the input level set in step (3). (6) Arrange the voltmeter to read power averaged over 250 ms. Repeat steps (3) and (4). 20

R equals 600 ohms ± 1%, 1W. Notes: The B channel decoder provides the following functions: (1) Operates the D channel to satisfy the TE operating requirements. (2) Provides separate outputs from the B channel. (3) Provides a stable clock to operate the TE. When the TE makes provision for an external connection to ground (G), the TE shall be connected to ground. When the TE makes no provision for an external ground, the TE shall be placed on a ground plane which is connected to ground and has overall dimensions at least 50% greater than the corresponding dimensions of the TE. The TE shall be centrally located on the ground plane without any additional connection to ground. Figure 3.5(a) Measurement of Transmitted Encoded Analogue Signal Power 21

3.5.3 Encoded Analogue Equivalent Audio Signal Limiting The applicable technical requirements and methods of measurement for audio signal limiting are given in Part I, Section 3.4.8. 3.5.4 Encoded Analogue Equivalent Signalling Interference 3.5.3.1 Requirement The equivalent power of encoded analogue signals at the network interface for other than live voice, as derived by a zero level decoder delivered by the TE for the first two seconds in response to an incoming alerting signal (by analogy "off-hook" in PSTN) on any B channel, in the band 2450 Hz to 2750 Hz shall be less than the power present simultaneously in the 800 Hz to 2450 Hz band. The gain in the 2450 Hz to 2750 Hz band shall not exceed by more than 1 db the gain present in the 800 Hz to 2450 Hz band. If the signal power in the 2450 Hz to 2750 Hz band is less than -44 dbm, then the requirement of this does not apply. 3.5.4.2 Method of Measurement (1) Connect the TE to the test circuit as shown in Figure 3.5(b). (2) Bring the TE to its B channel connected state and B channel selected. (3) Record the maximum value of Vo (t) that occurs during the first two seconds after the B channel connected state is obtained, for each of the possible output signals in step (4). (4) Operate the TE to transmit each of its possible output signals. (5) Record the maximum value of Vo (t) obtained. 22

R equals 600 ohms ± 1%, 1W. Notes: (1) Effective pass band insertion loss of each filter shall be 0 db. Minimum filter response curves are shown in figures 3.5(c) and (d). (2) VC(T) = -Vl when VG(T) > VS(T) and VC(T) = +Vl when VG(T) < VS(T) (3) VO(T) = Configuration Output (4) R1C1 = 4 ms (ITU-T REC 0313) (5) R2C2 = 43 ms (ITU-T REC 0313) The B channel decoder provides the following functions: (1) Operates the D channel to satisfy the TE operating requirements. (2) Provides separate outputs from the B channel. (3) Provides a stable clock to operate the TE. Figure 3.5(b) Single Frequency Restriction Measurement 23
