Foreword
This Technical Basis for Regulation (TBR) has been produced by the Business Telecommunications (BT)
Technical Committee of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and was adopted
after having passed through the ETSI standards approval procedure.
This TBR results from a mandate from the Commission of the European Community (CEC) to provide
harmonised standards for the support of the Second Phase Directive (91/263/EEC).
This TBR is based on information from CCITT Recommendations and ETSI publications and the relevant
documents are quoted where appropriate.
Introduction
The Council Directive on the application of Open Network Provision (ONP) to leased lines (92/44/EEC),
concerns the harmonisation of conditions for open and efficient access to, and use of, the leased lines
provided on public telecommunications networks and the availability throughout the Community (EEC) of a
minimum set of leased lines with harmonised technical characteristics.
The consequence of the Directive is that Telecommunications Organisations within the EEC shall make
available a set of leased lines between points in these countries with specified connection characteristics
and specified interfaces.
Two classes of standard will be used for the interfaces of terminal equipment designed for connection to
the ONP leased lines. European Telecommunications Standards (ETSs), which are voluntary, give the full
technical specifications for these interfaces, whereas Technical Basis for Regulations (TBRs) give the
essential requirements under the Second Phase Directive (91/263/EEC) for attachment to the leased lines.
This TBR is a subset of the corresponding ETS 300 248 (1993).
CCITT Recommendation G.703 (1991), as qualified by ETS 300 166 (1993), is used as the basis for the
terminal interface.

1 Scope
This TBR specifies the attachment requirements and corresponding test principles for a terminal equipment
interface for connection to the network termination points of ONP 2 048 kbit/s digital unstructured leased
lines using 120 ohm interfaces.
The term "attachment requirements" in the context of this TBR describes the essential requirements for
access which have to be fulfilled under the Second Phase Directive (91/263/EEC). Conformance to these
requirements does not guarantee end-to-end interoperability.
This TBR is applicable to all interfaces designed for connection to the ONP 2 048 kbit/s unstructured
leased line. It covers the essential requirements for the physical and electrical characteristics of the
terminal equipment interface.
Customer premises wiring and installation between the terminal equipment and the Network Termination
Point (NTP) are outside the scope of this TBR.
2 Normative references
This TBR incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative
references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For
dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this TBR
only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the
publication referred to applies.

NOTE: This TBR also contains a number of informative references which have been included to
indicate the sources from which various material has been derived, hence they do not
have an associated normative reference number. Details of these publications are given
in Annex C. In some cases the same publication may have been referenced in both a
normative and an informative manner.
3 Definitions
For the purposes of this TBR, the following definitions apply:
Leased lines: the telecommunications facilities provided by a public telecommunications network that
provide defined transmission characteristics between network termination points and that do not include
switching functions that the user can control, (e.g. on-demand switching).
Network Termination Point (NTP): all physical connections and their technical access specifications
which form part of the public telecommunications network and are necessary for access to, and efficient
communication through, that public network.
Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) circuit: a secondary circuit which is so designed and protected that
under normal and single fault conditions the voltage between any two accessible parts, or between one
accessible part and the equipment protective earthing terminal for a class I equipment, does not exceed a
safe value (subclause 1.2.8.5 of EN 60950).
Terminal Equipment (TE): equipment intended to be connected to the public telecommunications network,
i.e.:
Page 8
TBR 012: December 1993
a) to be connected directly to the termination of a public telecommunication network; or
b) to interwork with a public telecommunications network being connected directly or
indirectly to the termination of a public telecommunications network,
in order to send, process, or receive information.

5 Requirements
The 2 048 kbit/s unstructured leased line provides a bidirectional point-to-point digital leased line with a
usable bit rate of 2 048 kbit/s where timing is not provided from the network. The provision of circuit timing
is the responsibility of the user. No structuring of the data is provided by the network and any structuring is
the responsibility of the user.
5.1 Physical characteristics
Requirement: The terminal equipment shall provide an 8-contact plug of the type specified in
ISO/IEC 10173 [3] with contact assignments as specified in table 1. In addition, the terminal equipment
may provide an alternative method of connection.
NOTE 1: The use of a shielded cord or cable may be necessary to meet radiation and immunity
requirements defined in Electro-Magnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards.
NOTE 2: The alternative connection method is primarily for the purpose of permitting hardwired
presentations of the leased line using insulation displacement terminals and wire with
solid conductors having diameters in the range 0,4 to 0,6 mm.
Test: There shall be a visual inspection that the plug is of the correct type. The contact assignments are
tested indirectly through the tests in Annex A.

5.2.1.4 Output jitter
Requirement: The peak-to-peak output jitter shall not exceed the limits of table 3 when measured with
first order linear filters with the defined cut-off frequencies. For the purpose of testing, any signal input
from which the output timing is derived shall be provided with the maximum tolerable input jitter, and with
the maximum tolerable input frequency deviation, as specified by the manufacturer.
Where the output timing of the terminal equipment is taken from the leased line, the input to the terminal
equipment shall be provided with components of sinusoidal jitter at points on the curve of figure 3 and
table 4.
NOTE: A separate requirement for output jitter at frequencies in the range 4 Hz to 40 Hz is not
required because this frequency band is covered sufficiently by the first order linear
filter which produces 20 dB attenuation at 4 H
