- Federal Standard 1037C
Federal Standard 1037C, entitled Telecommunications: Glossary of Telecommunication Terms is a
United States Federal Standard, issued by theGeneral Services Administration pursuant to theFederal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 , as amended.This document provides Federal departments and agencies a comprehensive source of definitions of terms used in
telecommunications and directly related fields by international and U.S. Government telecommunications specialists.As a publication of the U.S. Government, prepared by an agency of the U.S. Government, it appears to be mostly available as a
public domain resource, but a few items are derived from copyrighted sources: where this is the case, there is an attribution to the source.This standard was superseded in
2001 by American National Standard T1.523-2001, Telecom Glossary 2000, which is published by ATIS. The old standard is still frequently used, because the new standard is "not" in the public domain.External links
