"This ETS defines the stage two of the telephony 7 kHz teleservice for the pan-European Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) as provided by European public telecommunications operators. The stage two description identifies the functional capabilities and the information flows needed to support the service description. The stage two description also identifies user operations not directly associated with a call (see CCITT Recommendation I.130 [2]). This ETS is specified according to the methodology specified in CCITT Recommendation Q.65 [3]. In addition this ETS does not specify the requirements where the service is provided to the user via a private ISDN. This ETS does not specify the requirements for the allocation of defined functional entities within a private ISDN; it does@ however@ specify which functional entities may be allocated to a private ISDN. This ETS does not specify the additional requirements where the service is provided to a user via a telecommunications network that is not an ISDN. The telephony 7 kHz teleservice is a realtime teleservice in which speech (7 kHz or 3@1 kHz bandwidth) can be interchanged using one circuit-mode 64 kbit/s connection. This ETS is applicable to the stage three standards for the ISDN telephony 7 kHz teleservice. The term ""stage three"" is also defined in CCITT Recommendation I.130 [2]. Where the text indicates the status of a requirement@ i.e. as a strict command or prohibition@ as authorisation leaving freedom@ as a capability or possibility@ this shall be reflected in the relevant stage three standards. Furthermore@ conformance to this ETS is met by conforming to the stage three standards with the field of application appropriate to the equipment being implemented. Therefore@ no method of testing is provided for this ETS."
