The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) published TIA 102.BAGA - Project 25 Console Subsystem Interface Overview.
TIA 102.BAGA deals with information relevant to the development of standards supporting voice services and certain Console Subsystem Interface (CSSI) supplemental services.
The standard was developed in collaboration with public safety organizations under the Project 25 banner in order to clarify technical requirements and standards considerations supporting specification of the CSSI.
The purpose of this document is to provide an overview of technical requirements and standards considerations supporting specification of the CSSI.
Integral to the Project 25 system architecture, technical specification of the CSSI as an open interface enables functional capabilities on an interoperable and nonproprietary basis.
The document is, therefore, primarily intended to facilitate the development of technical standards defining the service and protocol aspects of the CSSI.
In addition, the document facilitates development of technical standards concerning definition of measurement methods, performance recommendations, conformance tests and interoperability test methods involving the CSSI.
The Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO), the National Association of State Telecommunications Directors (NASTD), and federal government agencies (FED) known as APCO/NASTD/FED issue common system standards for digital public safety radio communications (APCO/NASTD/FED Project 25 standard).
TIA, in cooperation with APCO/NASTD/FED, generated standards, interim standards, specifications and telecommunications systems bulletins that define the equipment and processes necessary for implementation of the APCO/NASTD/FED Project 25 standard.
TIA 102.BAGA was formulated under the cognizance of the TIA TR-8: Mobile and Personal Private Radio Standards Engineering Committee's TR-8.19: Wireline System Interfaces Subcommittee.
