Telephone Terminal Equipment Standards for Wideband Analog Telephones Used with High Definition Voice Services
Arlington VA.(November 30, 2012) – The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) TR-41.3 Engineering Committee on Analog and Digital Wireline Terminals unanimously approved the creation of four new standards to become sub-documents to the TIA-470 series of analog telephone standards to cover requirements for wideband (also known as high definition voice) analog telephones that may be connected to analog terminal adapters (ATAs), multimedia terminal adapters (MTAs), or voice gateways (VGs) to provide wideband voice communications via packet-based services such as VoIP.
TR-41.3 issued a call for interest for following documents:
ANSI/TIA-470.340 initially titled "Telecommunications – Telephone Terminal Equipment – Feature Performance Requirements for Wideband Analog Telephones Used with VoIP Services". TR-41.3 is developing guidelines in the area defined by the following scope: " This document addresses wideband feature performance requirements such as the terminal notifying the ATA, MTA, or VG to which it is connected that it has wideband capability and determining whether it should operate in wideband or narrowband mode based on information received from the connected device about the capabilities of the far end terminal."
ANSI/TIA-470.112 initially titled "Telecommunications – Telephone Terminal Equipment – Transmission Requirements for Wideband Analog Telephones with Handsets". TR-41.3 is developing guidelines in the area defined by the following scope: "This -document addresses the wideband voice transmission requirements specific to analog telephones equipped with handsets."
ANSI/TIA-470.122 initially titled "Telecommunications – Telephone Terminal Equipment – Transmission Requirements for Wideband Analog Telephones with Speakerphones". TR-41.3 is developing guidelines in the area defined by the following scope: "This document addresses the wideband voice transmission requirements specific to analog telephones equipped with speakerphones."
ANSI/TIA-470.132 initially titled "Telecommunications – Telephone Terminal Equipment – Transmission Requirements for Wideband Analog Telephones with Headsets". TR-41.3 is developing guidelines in the area defined by the following scope: “This document addresses the wideband voice transmission requirements specific to analog telephones equipped with headsets.”
The stakeholders may include, but are not limited to: corded and cordless telephone manufactures, analog terminal adapter manufacturers, multimedia terminal adapter manufactures, voice gateway manufacturers, VoIP service providers, DSL and cable Internet service providers, DECT / CAT-iq chipset makers, telephone controller IC makers, and VoIP telephone manufacturers.

We hope that China will use this break in the negotiations to reexamine its approach to the negotiations to expand the ITA and focus on reducing its overly large list of sensitive products. If China is ready to move forward to conclude the expansion of the ITA this year then the ITA Expansion is achievable this year.

As part of a large U.S. industry delegation representing a broad array of ICT manufacturers, TIA is in Geneva, Switzerland this week to cheer on the trade negotiators who are working hard to conclude the negotiations to expand the product coverage of the WTO’s Information Technology Agreement (ITA). The ITA remains one of the most commercially important WTO trade agreements – by eliminating tariffs on a broad range of ICT products, the ITA lowers the cost and improves access to these products, which are vital to the economic competitiveness of all economies around the world.

The Telecommunications Industry Association was in Geneva last week along with AdvaMed, the Consumer Electronics Association, the Entertainment Software Association, the Information Technology Industry Council, the Liquid Crystal Polymer Coalition, the Motion Picture Association of America, and the Semiconductor Industry Association. This coalition of high-tech companies represents a broad spectrum of manufacturers and service providers in the information and communication technology (ICT) sector.

Last week was a busy one at the World Trade Organization (WTO) in Geneva, Switzerland. The signs are very encouraging that the member countries of the WTO are back on track to move the WTO’s trade liberalization agenda forward – from the new International Services Agreement (ISA) to the ongoing negotiations to expand the existing WTO Information Technology Agreement (ITA).
