1 OVERVIEW
2 PROTOCOL ARCHITECTURE
The V5 interface is structured as a three layer protocol:
Layer 1, Layer 2, and Layer 3 (refer to Figure 2).
Layer 1 is known as the physical layer. This layer
determines the electrical interface, line coding, line
rate, etc. ETSI ETS 300 166 or ITU-T G.703 standards
are followed for defining these electrical and
physical characteristics.
Layer 2 is known as the data link layer. This layer
delivers the digital data across a physical line and
conveys information between layer 3 entities across
the V5 interface. LAPV5, a LAPD version of ETSI ETS
300 125 or ITU-T Q.920 and Q.921, governs the Data
