Review of Standards. To keep abreast of progress in industry, Joint Australian/

New Zealand Standards are subject to periodic review and are kept up to date by the
issue of amendments or new editions as necessary. It is important therefore that
Standards users ensure that they are in possession of the latest edition, and any
amendments thereto.
Full details of all Joint Standards and related publications will be found in the
Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand Catalogue of Publications; this
information is supplemented each month by the magazines ‘The Australian Standard’
and ‘Standards New Zealand’, which subscribing members receive, and which give
details of new publications, new editions and amendments, and of withdrawn
Standards.
Suggestions for improvements to Joint Standards, addressed to the head office of either
Standards Australia or Standards New Zealand, are welcomed. Notification of any
inaccuracy or ambiguity found in a Joint Australian/New Zealand Standard should be
made without delay in order that the matter may be investigated and appropriate action
taken.

PREFACE

This Standard was prepared by the Joint Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand Committee IT/1 on
Information Systems—Interconnection. It is identical with and has been reproduced from ISO/IEC 11569:1993,
Information technology—Telecommunications and information exchange between systems—26-pole interface
connector mateability dimensions and contact number assignments.

This Standard is issued as a Joint Standard under the terms of the Active Cooperation Agreement between
Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand.

The objective of this Standard is to provide users of OSI LAN based equipment with a specification of a 26-pole
connector, including dimensions and assignments to be used when the functional characteristics of the interface
conform with V.24 and the electrical characteristics conform with V.10, V.11 or V.28.

This Standard is one of a series of Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Standards which are currently under

development. Since OSI Standards are developmental, there may be some minor difficulties encountered in their
implementation. For this reason, Standards Australia will be providing, through the OSI Help Desk, a service to
coordinate and disseminate information concerning difficulties which are identified in using this Standard.

The term ‘informative’ has been used in this Standard to define the application of the annex to which it applies.
An ‘informative’ annex is only for information and guidance.

Users of this Standard are advised by Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand, under arrangements made
with ISO and IEC, as well as certain other Standards organizations, that the number of this Standard is not
reproduced on each page; its identity is shown only on the cover and title pages.

For the purpose of this Standard, the source text should be modified as follows:

(a) Terminology The words ‘this Australian/New Zealand Standard’ should replace the words ‘this International
Standard’ wherever they appear.

(b) Decimal marker Substitute a full point for a comma where it appears as a decimal marker.

(c) References The references to international Standards should be replaced by references, where appropriate,
to the following Australian or Joint Australian/New Zealand Standards:
