[comp.dcom.modems] CCITT Standards

doug@herbert.uucp (Doug Phillipson 5-0134) (01/08/90)

	Hello world, I have been tasked by my boss to write a paper on 
modem standards. Does anyone out there have a summary of all the CCITT
"V" standards. And what does the "bis" stand for in V.42bis. I need a summary
of all the "V" standards, V.19, V.29, V.22, V.32, V.33, V.35, V.42, V.45 V.49.
I need some plain English stuff that you would read to your mother. Which speeds
do each standard apply to and some words on what each standard is useful for.

Desperately

HELP!

	Does someone have a complete list of "V" standards as they apply
to modems? Just a summary of the standards from 300 baud to 19200 baud will do.
And what does the "bis" stand for. What is the difference between:

V.22 and V.22bis

Thanks in advance

Desperately

Here are the modem-level CCITT V numbers that I know:

V.22  1200/600 bps FDX
V.23  1200/600 bps HDX
V.26  2400 bps 4W
V.26 bis  2400/1200 bps HDX
V.26 ter  2400/1200 bps FDX
V.27  4800 bps 4W
V.27 bis  4800/2400 bps 4W
V.27 ter  4800/2400 bps FDX
V.29  9600 bps 4W
V.32  9600/4800 bps FDX
V.33  14.4 kbps
V.35  48 kbps 4W
V.36  48 kbps 4W
V.37  72 kbps 4W

These were taken from a wall chart showing a great many X., V.,
and other standards mapped against the 7 ISO layers; the chart
shows the rather tangled interrelated nature of the standards.
It is from:

Retix
2644 30th St
Santa Monica, CA 90405-3009
(213)399-2200

Also check your local University technical library; I am fortunate
in being close to Stanford, which has most of the CCITT standards.
If all else fails you can go direct to the sources:

International Organization for Standardization

and

International Telecommunications Union

both in Geneva, Switzerland.

Unfortunately this takes time and the books are quite expensive.

	Hello world. I am in need of the CCITT "V." modem standards 
documents. I have been informed by a company by the name of Global
Engineering that these documents are not available yet. How do modem
manufacturers get these documents or atleast partial ones. Are there
any modem manufacturers out there that can send me these documents?

	I have been placed on a government comittee to recomend
modem standards for nation wide Emergency Operation Centers. We are
also creating lists of preferred hardware. If any modem manufacturers 
out there are reading this please send me a list of your modems and
technical specs if you would like to be considered for this list.

Send info to:

	Douglas Phillipson
	EG&G Energy Measurements
	P.O. Box 1912 M/S C-100
	Las Vegas NV, 89125
PS
	I would appreciate a copy of the CCITT standards that exist
currently.
