Hello Carl, << I have noted that Romania has acoustic transmission requirements listed in I-ETS 300-677 which is a document applied in conjunction with ETS 300-001 (NET 4). However Romania is not listed in the current version of ETS 300-001 (Jan '97 4th Ed). Am I missing something? >>
URL to EN 300 001 v.1.5.1 (Latest version) is ... http://webapp.etsi.org/publicationstemp/5333.htm (be aware that it is a large 8.989MB) It doesn't include any PSTN requirements for Romania though. I-ETS 300 677 was completed during my chairmanship of ETSI TE4 and the figures collated in the various tables of requirements were gained from our liaison with the various national standards committees. My contact at the time of writing I-ETS 300 677(1994-95) was Mr Petrov, Institutul Roman de Standardizare. Tel. +40 1 2113296 / Fax. +40 1 2100833. I have since been successful in getting PSTN modems approved in Romania, the basic design was a finely tuned TBR21 compliant product with a DAA software profile configured by myself to capture the requirements of most of Eastern and Central Europe. In Egypt I think you'll find (as I have) that you'll not get a clear answer about the technical parameters of what the test against, only that they follow ITU-T recommendations (so for acoustics that'll be the P series). PSTN Interface designs compliant with BS 6305 will generally meet whatever the Egyptians decide to test on the day. However, if your distributor is anything like the ones I've dealt with they'll tell you don't need to gain approval and they are quite prepared to sell without approaching the Authorities.

I have been trying to obtain information from the reg bodies for some time now, but unfortunately information is not forthcoming. Any info on the technical requirements or a suitable contact would be much appreciated.

However Romania is not listed in the current version of ETS 300-001 (Jan '97 4th Ed). Am I missing something? Regards Carl Butler Senior Development Engineer Lamatec Designs UK
