12、Standards Institute, Inc. Abstract This standard provides requirements for loop-start and ground-start signaling for the analog voicegrade interface between carrier switched access lines and customer installations. These requirements are intended to assist carriers, manufacturers, and users of produ

13、cts to be used in the switched network to understand the characteristics of the existing networks. This standard is a revision and compilation of T1.401-2000 and its supplements T1.401a-2000 and T1.401b-20002, which it replaces in its entirety. ATIS-0600401.2006 ii FOREWORD The information contained

14、 in this Foreword is not part of this American National Standard (ANS) and has not been processed in accordance with ANSIs requirements for an ANS. As such, this Foreword may contain material that has not been subjected to public review or a consensus process. In addition, it does not contain requir

15、ements necessary for conformance to the Standard. The Alliance for Telecommunication Industry Solutions (ATIS) serves the public through improved understanding between carriers, customers, and manufacturers. The Network Interface, Power, and Protection Committee (NIPP) - formerly T1E1 - develops and

16、 recommends standards and technical reports. The standards and technical reports are related to power systems, electrical and physical protection for the exchange and interexchange carrier networks, and interfaces associated with user access to telecommunications networks. ANSI guidelines specify tw

17、o categories of requirements: mandatory and recommendation. The mandatory requirements are designated by the word shall and recommendations by the word should. Where both a mandatory requirement and a recommendation are specified for the same criterion, the recommendation represents a goal currently

18、 identifiable as having distinct compatibility or performance advantages. This standard is one of a series of network-to-customer installation interface standards originally developed by Technical Subcommittee T1E1 of Accredited Standards Committee T1, Telecommunications. This standard is intended t

19、o be a living document, subject to revision and updating as warranted by advances in network and equipment technology. This standard provides the requirements associated with analog voicegrade switched access lines that use loop-start or ground-start signaling. This standard will be useful to those

20、engaged in the provisioning or operation of telecommunications equipment or services that share a boundary at the Network Interface (NI). Compliance with this standard should provide interface compatibility in most installations, but this standard does not guarantee compatibility or acceptable perfo

21、rmance under all operating conditions. In some cases, location-oriented options are needed to ensure compatibility at the NI. This need for options is imposed by significant differences between various network elements. This standard has six annexes. Annexes A, B, C, D, E, and F are informative. The

22、 informative annexes and footnotes are not considered a part of this standard. This is the fourth issue of this standard and it supersedes American National Standard T1.401-2000 in its entirety. Some of the revisions were editorial in nature, that is, they are intended to provide information or to i

23、mprove clarity. The following technical revisions were made: A description of test signals used for measuring line characteristics was added to Annex A. Amendments T1.401a-2001 and T1.401b-2002 were merged into this document. Suggestions for the improvement of this standard are welcome. They should

28、hing systems and transmission facilities used to provide switched access lines affect the requirements of this standard. A transmission facility connects the local switching system to the NI. There are two types of loop-start and ground-start switched access lines: Two-wire. Four-wire. 5.1 Two-WireS

29、witched Access Lines At the NI, a two-wire access line appears as two conductors commonly called tip (T) and ring (R). The requirements and recommendations in this standard are written using two-wire access line terminology. 5.2 Four-Wire Switched Access Lines At the NI, a four-wire access line appe

30、ars as four conductors commonly called T, R, T1, and R1. The two-wire loop-start and ground-start requirements in this standard shall apply to four-wire NIs. The four-wire lead designations and their electrical functions are illustrated in Figure 1 and are defined as follows: The leads designated T

31、and R at the NI shall be used for transmitting voicegrade signals toward the network. The leads designated T1 and R1 at the NI shall be used for receiving voicegrade signals from the network. The lead derived by the CI from the T and R pair shall provide the same electrical function as the tip lead

32、for two-wire Nls. This lead is commonly designated the A lead. The lead derived by the CI from the T1 and R1 pair shall provide the same electrical function as the ring lead for two-wire Nls. This lead is commonly designated the B lead. ATIS-0600401 10 B lead A lead NIVoiceband signalVoiceband signa

A B Figure 1 - Four-Wire Network Interface 5.3 Switched Access Line Loop Current-Feed Interfaces Two types of loop current-feed interfaces are used in the network: 1. Grou

34、nded: One conductor of the access line is connected through a 0 to 5 Volt dc offset to ground. This is often called a conventional battery-feed circuit. 2. Ground-referenced: Neither conductor of the interface is directly grounded. A high impedance ground-reference circuit is connected between one c

35、onductor of the interface and ground. This is often called a floating battery-feed circuit. However, some ground reference is required to ensure that both conductors of the interface are non-positive with respect to ground. 5.3.1 Grounded Loop Current-Feed Interfaces Figure 2 shows a network grounde

36、d loop current-feed interface. When used to provide loop-start services, a network grounded loop-current feed interface connects the tip conductor to the network equipment ground (C closed; D open) and the ring conductor to a dc voltage negative with respect to ground. However, outside plant mainten

37、ance activities and feature usage (e.g., line side answer supervision) may reverse these voltages either temporarily or permanently; therefore, connection of ATIS-0600401 11 one specific conductor of a loop-start interface to network ground cannot be assured. When used to provide ground-start servic

38、es, a network grounded loop-current interface connects a dc voltage negative with respect to ground to the ring conductor and connects network ground to the tip conductor when required.

ATIS-0600401 12 6 LOOP-START SIGNALING 6.1 Gen

42、eral This clause specifies loop-start signaling parameters between the network and the CI at the NI. Loop-start signaling is the most commonly used signaling method for analog voicegrade switched access lines. The main advantages of loop-start signaling are its simplicity and low cost. Loop-start si

43、gnaling has the following key disadvantages: No disconnect signal is provided to either the originating or the terminating NI when either CI goes to the on-hook state. At some NIs, the network opens the loop (no voltage between tip and ring) as it reconfigures to the idle state. However, these open

44、intervals are not of a fixed duration, never appear at some Nls, and should not be relied upon as disconnect signals. If one CI remains in the off-hook state after the other CI disconnects, the network may return dial tone to that Cl. The network may seize a terminating CI for up to 4.45 seconds pri

45、or to applying a ringing signal to the terminating NI. 6.2 Principle of Loop-Start Operation Figure 2 shows the principle of operation of loop-start signaling. It does not represent the actual implementation of any network loop current-feed interface. The CI appears as a very high tip-to-ring resist

46、ance during the idle (on-hook) state, and thus, a virtual dc open-circuit condition exists at the NI. To originate a service request, the CI applies an off-hook signal to the NI by closing the switch hook contacts (see Figure 2), which provides a loop closure termination with a low tip-to-ring resis

47、tance. The low resistance causes a dc loop current to flow in the tip and ring conductors. The network detects this current to determine that the CI went to the off-hook state. The name loop-start signaling comes from the use of a CI loop closure to initiate a service request. The process by which t

48、he network monitors the CI status is called dc loop supervision. The request for service initiated by the originating CI is called a seizure. The network responds to a CI seizure by applying a dial-tone signal that is superimposed on the dc current flowing in the loop circuit. To alert the CI to a t

49、erminating (incoming) call (while the CI is in the idle state), the network applies an alerting signal to the NI. The CI answers the call by applying an off-hook signal to the NI. The component of the alerting signal recognizable by the CI is an ac ringing signal, superimposed on a dc signal (see 6.8.2). The alerting signal typically consists of nominal 2-second ac ringing intervals separated by nominal 4-second silent intervals. As a result, after allowing for timing tolerances, an NI can be seized by the network for as long as 4.45
