The actual interchange circuits to be used in a particular DCE for a user class ofservice according to Recommendation X.1 and defined user facilities according to Recommendation X.2, are thoseindicated in the relevant Recommendation for the procedura

6、l characteristics of the interface, e.g.,Recommendation X.20 or X.21.To enable a standard DTE to be developed, the use and termination by the DTE of certain circuits even whenimplemented in the DCE are not mandatory. This is covered by the individual interface Recommendations.The interchange circuit

9、ronous and start/stop), telexservice, packet switching services, message registration and retransmission service and facsimile service.2 Line of demarcationThe interface between DTE and DCE is located at a connector which is the interchange point between thesetwo classes of equipment shown in Figure

10、 1/X.24.2 Fascicle VIII.2 - Rec. X.242.1 The connector will not necessarily be physically attached to the DCE and may be mounted in a fixed positionnear the DTE. The female part of the connector belongs to the DCE.2.2 An interconnecting cable will normally be provided together with the DTE. The cabl

In the case of interchange

14、circuits accordingto Recommendations V.10 and V.11, it interconnects the zero volt reference points of a generator and a receiver toreduce environmental signal interference, if required.Fascicle VIII.2 - Rec. X.24 3Within the DCE, this conductor shall be brought to one point, protective ground or ea

15、rth, by means of ametallic strap within the equipment. This metallic strap can be connected or removed at installation, as may berequired, to minimize the introduction of noise into electronic circuitry or to meet applicable regulations.Note - Where a shielded interconnecting cable is used at the in

16、terface, the shield may be connected either tocircuit G, or to protective ground in accordance with national regulations. Protective ground may be further connectedto external grounds as required by applicable electrical safety regulations.For unbalanced interchange circuits with electrical characte

42、at one interface is synchronized to the alignment at the otherinterface. (This is only possible on some connections.)Furthermore, where this feature is available, a change of condition on circuit C as defined above may result in anequivalent change in the relative alignment on circuit I at the dista
