2. Recommendation G.703
ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
Note 1 - The characteristics of interfaces at non-hierarchical bit rates, except n
x 64 kbit/s interfaces conveyed by 1544 kbit/s or 2048 kbit/s interfaces, are
specified in the respective equipment Recommendations.
Note 2 - The jitter specifications contained in the following 6, 7, 8 and 9 are
intended to be imposed at international interconnection points.
Note 3 - The interfaces described in 2 to 9 of this Recommendation correspond
to the ports T (output port) and T' (input port) as recommended for
interconnection in CCIR Recommendation AC/9 with reference to Report AH/9 of CCIR
Study Group 9. (This Report defines the points T and T'.)
Note 4 - For signals with bit rates of n x 64 kbit/s (n = 2 to 31) which are
routed through multiplexing equipment specified for the 2048 kbit/s hierarchy, the
interface shall have the same electrical physical characteristics as those for the
2048 kbit/s interface specified in section 6/G.703. For signals with bit rates of
n x 64 kbit/s (n = 2 to 23) which are routed through multiplexing equipment
specified for the 1544 kbit/s hierarchy, the interface shall have the same
electrical physical characteristics as those for the 1544 kbit/s interface
specified in section 2/G.703.
1.1.2 In both directions of transmission, three signals can be carried across the
interface:
- 64 kbit/s information signal;
- 64 kHz timing signal;
- 8 kHz timing signal.
Note 1 - The 64 kbit/s information signal and the 64 kHz timing signal are
mandatory. However, although an 8 kHz timing must be generated by the controlling
equipment (e.g., PCM multiplex or time slot access equipment), it should not be
mandatory for the subordinate equipment on the other side of the interface to
either utilize the 8 kHz timing signal from the controlling equipment or to supply
an 8 kHz timing signal.
Note 2 - The detection of an upstream fault can be transmitted across the
64 kbit/s interface by transmitting an Alarm Indication Signal towards the
subordinate equipment.
1.1.3 The interface should be bit sequence independent at 64 kbit/s.
1.1.4.2 Centralized clock interface
The term centralized clock is used to describe an interface wherein for
both directions of transmission of the information signal, the associated timing
signals are supplied from a centralized clock, which may be derived for example
from certain incoming line signals (see Figure 2/G.703).
1.1.4.3 Contradirectional interface
The term contradirectional is used to describe an interface across which
the timing signals associated with both directions of transmission are directed
towards the subordinate equipment (See Figure 3/G.703).
1.2.1.1.6 Overvoltage protection requirement: See Annex B.
The return loss at the input ports should have the following minimum
values:

To provide nominal immunity against interference, input ports are required
to meet the following requirements:
A nominal aggregate signal, encoded as a 64 kbit/s co-directional signal,
and having a pulse shape as defined in the pulse mask shall have added to it
interfering signal with the same pulse shape as the wanted signal. The interfering
signal should have a bit rate within the limits specified in this Recommendation
but should not be synchronous with the wanted signal. The interfering signal shall
be combined with the wanted signal in a combining network, with an overall zero
loss in the signal path and with the nominal impedance 120 ohms to give a signal
to interference ratio of 20 dB. The binary content of the interfering signal
should comply with Recommendation 0.152
(211-1 bit period). No errors shall result when the combined signal, attenuated by
up to the maximum specified interconnecting cable loss, is applied to the input
port.
Note - If the symmetrical pair is screened, the screen shall be connected to the
earth at the output port, and provision shall be made for connecting the screen of
the symmetrical pair to earth, if required, at the input port.
1.2.3.1.6 Specifications at the input ports
The digital signals presented at the input ports should be as defined above
but modified by the characteristics of the interconnecting pairs. The attenuation
of these pairs at a frequency of 32 kHz should be in the range 0 to 3 dB. This
attenuation should take into account any losses incurred by the presence of a
digital distribution frame between the equipments.
The return loss at the input ports should have the following minimum
values:

to meet the following requirement:
A nominal aggregate signal, encoded as a 64 kbit/s contra-directional
signal, and having a pulse shape as defined in the pulse mask shall have added to
it an interfering signal with the same pulse shape as the wanted signal. The
interfering signal should have a bit rate within the limits specified in this
Recommendation but should not be synchronous with the wanted signal. The
interfering signal shall be combined with the wanted signal in a combining network
with an overall zero loss in the signal path and with the nominal impedance 120
ohms to give a signal to interference ratio of 20 dB. The binary content of the

9 Interface at 139 264 kbit/s
9.1 General characteristics
Bit rate: 139 264 kbit/s ± 15 ppm.
Code: coded mark inversion (CMI).
Overvoltage protection requirement: See Annex B.
9.2 Specifications at the output ports (see Table 9/G.703 and Figures 19 and
20/G.703)
Note 1 - A method based on the measurement of the levels of the fundamental
frequency component, the second (and possibly the third) harmonic of a signal
corresponding to binary all 0s and binary all 1s, is considered to be a
perfectly adequate method of checking that the requirements of Table 9/G.703
have been met.
The relevant values are under study.
9.3 Specifications at the input ports
The digital signal presented at the input port should conform to
Table 9/G.703 and Figures 19 and 20/G.703 modified by the characteristics of
the interconnecting coaxial pair.
The attenuation of the coaxial pair should be assumed to follow an
approximate f law and to have a maximum insertion loss of 12 dB at a frequency
of 70 MHz.
For the jitter to be tolerated at the input port refer to 3 of
Recommendation G.823.
The return loss characteristics should be the same as that specified for
the output port.
Notes to Figure 19/G.703
Note 1 - V = 1.0 volt.
Note 2 - For all measurements using these masks, the signal should be AC
coupled, using a capacitor of not less than 0.01 uF, to the input of the
oscilloscope used for measurements.
The nominal zero level for both masks should be aligned with the
oscilloscope trace with no input signal. With the signal then applied, the
vertical position of the trace can be adjusted with the objective of meeting
the limits of the masks. Any such adjustment should be the same for both masks
and should not exceed +0.05 V. This may be checked by removing the input signal
again and verifying that the trace lies within +0.05 V of the nominal zero
level of the masks.
Note 3 - Each pulse in a coded pulse sequence should meet the limits of the
relevant mask, irrespective of the state of the preceding and succeeding
pulses. For actual verification, if a 139 264 kHz timing signal associated
with the source of the interface signal is available, its use as a timing
reference for an oscilloscope is preferred. Otherwise, compliance with the
relevant mask may be tested by means of all-0s and all-1s signals,
respectively. (In practice, the signal may contain frame alignment bits per
G.751.)
Note 4 - The maximum "steady state" amplitude should not exceed the 0.55 V
limit. Overshoots and other transients are permitted to fall into the dotted
area, bounded by the amplitude levels 0.55 V and 0.6 V, provided that they do
not exceed the steady state level by more than 0.05 V. The possibility of
relaxing the amount by which the overshoot may exceed the steady state level is
under study.
Note 5 - For the purpose of these masks, the rise time and decay time should be
measured between -0.4 V and 0.4 V, and should not exceed 2 ns.

Notes to Figure 20/G.703

not exceed the steady state level by more than 0.05 V. The possibility of
relaxing the amount by which the overshoot may exceed the steady state level is
under study.
Note 5 - For the purpose of these masks, the rise time and decay time should be
measured between -0.4 V and 0.4 V, and should not exceed 2 ns.
Note 6 - The inverse pulse will have the same characteristics, noting that the
timing tolerance at the zero level of the negative and positive transitions are
+0.1 ns and +0.5 ns respectively.
Annex A
(to Recommendation G.703)
Definition of codes
This annex defines the Modified Alternate Mark Inversion Codes
(cf. Recommendation G.701, item 9005) whose use is specified in
Recommendation G.703.
In these codes, binary 1 bits are generally represented by alternate
positive and negative pulses, and binary 0 bits by spaces. Exceptions, as
specified for the individual codes, are made when strings of successive 0 bits
occur in the binary signal.
In the definitions below, B represents an inserted pulse conforming to
the AMI rule (G.701, 9004), and V represents an AMI violation (9007).
The encoding of binary signals in accordance with the rules given in
this annex includes frame alignment bits, etc.
Definition of B3ZS (also designated HDB2) and HDB3
Each block of 3 (resp. 4) successive zeros is replaced by OOV (OOOV) or
BOV (BOOV). The choice of OOV (resp. OOOV) or BOV (resp. BOOV) is made so that
the number of B pulses between consecutive V pulses is odd. In other words,
successive V pulses are of alternate polarity so that no d.c. component is
introduced.
Note - The abbreviations stand for the following:
HDB2 (HDB3) high density bipolar of order 2 (3)
B3ZS bipolar with three-zero substitution
Definition of B6ZS and B8ZS
Each block of 6 (resp. 8) successive zeros is replaced by OVBOVB
(resp. OOOVBOVB).
Annex B
(to Recommendation G.703)
Specification of the overvoltage protection requirement
The input and output ports should withstand without damage
the following test:
- 10 standard lightning impulses (1.2/50s) with a
maximum amplitude of UVDC (5 negative and 5 positive
impulses). For the definition of this impulse see
Recommendation K.17 Reference 1 (IEC 60-2/1973);
- at the interface for coaxial pairs;
- differential mode: with a pulse generator of Figure
1, the value of U is under study;
- common mode - under study;
- at the interface for symmetrical pairs:
- differential mode: with a pulse generator of Figure
1, the value of U is under study (a value of 20
V has been mentioned);
- common mode: with a pulse generator of Figure 2, U
= 100 VDC;
- possible pulse generators are described in Figures 1
and 2.
