10、 The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Sta
11、ndardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of informati
12、on technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC.

In particular, this supplement focuses on specific matters that are r
24、elevant to optical fibre submarine cable systems. This supplement also describes a common way of thinking of the requirements for designing optical fibre submarine cable systems and aims to consolidate and expand on material related to several Recommendations, including ITU-T G.971, ITU-T G.972, ITU
