Recommendation E.830 MODELS FOR THE ALLOCATION OF INTERNATIONAL TELEPHONE CONNECTION RETAINABILITY, ACCESSIBILITY AND INTEGRITY Introduction This Recommendation is one of a set of closely related Recommendations, comprising Recommendations E.810, E.830, E.845, E.850 and E.855 concerned with the accessibility, retainability and integrity of telephone services. The CCITT, considering that there is a need to establish hypothetical reference connection models to allocate overall connection retainability, accessibility and integrity objectives to the component parts of international connections, recommends three models for retainability (one of which is for a typical, or average, international connection), and one model for accessibility and integrity. 1 Retainability models The models are shown respectively, in Figures 1/E.830, 2/E.830 and 3/E.830. As indicated by Figure 1/E.830, the typical connection has two circuits in each of the national systems, and one in the international chain. In the 90th percentile case, there would be three in the national systems and one in the international chain. 2 Number of circuits The number of circuits in each of the models is based on Table 1/E.830. The entries of this table are based on the information contained in Table 1/G.101. The mean and model number of national extension circuits are both equal to 2. This applies to both originating and terminating national systems. The mean number of international circuits is 2.1 and the model number is 2.
