Signalling Systems Around the World
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
For those of you who have the desire to make international calls, this info may
|
||
|
be of interest. Thanks to TAP and Nick Haflinger.
|
||
|
|
||
|
CCITT 1. An old international system, now deceased. Used a 500 Hz tone
|
||
|
interrupted at 20 Hz (Ring) for 1-way line signals.
|
||
|
|
||
|
CCITT 2. Proposed "International Standard" that never caught on much.
|
||
|
Used 600 Hz interrupted by 750 Hz. Still used in Australia,
|
||
|
New Zealand and South Africa.
|
||
|
|
||
|
CCITT 3. An early in-band system that uses 2280 for both line and
|
||
|
register (!!). Used in France, Austria, Poland and Hungary.
|
||
|
|
||
|
CCITT 4 A variation of 3, but uses 2040 and 2400 for end to end Tx of
|
||
|
line and register. Used for international Traffic in Europe,
|
||
|
but cannot be used with TASI (AKA Multiplex or "that dammed
|
||
|
clipping").
|
||
|
|
||
|
CCITT 5 This is the most popular, and the one used in the US. 2400 and
|
||
|
the infamous 2600 are used for link to link (not merely end to
|
||
|
end line signals. Registers are handled via DTMF (Touchtones).
|
||
|
Anyone know what 2400 does??
|
||
|
|
||
|
CCITT 5 bis. Just like above, but a 1850 Hz tone is used for TASI locking
|
||
|
and transmission of line signals.
|
||
|
|
||
|
CCITT 6 The newest and worst for phreaks. It uses digital data sent
|
||
|
out-of-band to control the connection. In other words, the
|
||
|
connection is made and billing started BEFORE you can get
|
||
|
control.
|
||
|
|
||
|
CCITT 5R1 A regional system like 5, but doesn't use the mysterious 2400
|
||
|
and can't use the multiplexer.
|
||
|
|
||
|
CCITT 5R2 Probably the interface to AUTOVON, as it uses 120 Hz spaced
|
||
|
tones for DTMF instead of 200. Also 3825 Hz is the blow-off
|
||
|
tone instead of 2600.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
The "Extra" tones
|
||
|
|
||
|
1700 + 700 = Inward Operator
|
||
|
1700 + 900 = Delay operator, also, in TSPS,STP (a "Zero Plus" call from a coin
|
||
|
phone)
|
||
|
1700 + 1100= KP1 (Start recognition of special tones)
|
||
|
1300 + 1700= KP2 (End recognition of special tones)
