American spelling/or advocate its supremacy will alway see this as incorrect or at least... less than correct. We can't even depend on "reliable sources" on this, because they also spell words based on such perspective. So I am sure NYT or American engineer will always spell it with single l, while the reverse is the case if you read related content on UK's Guardian. Moreover, I think after these series of back and forth moves, it is right time to move-protect the page, because this will not stop in as much as British/American spelling variation exists. –

date, that meant users could get calling line ID right to their extension on the PBX, DID trunks could use out-of-band signalling, etc. Granted most businesses in the world are small and use fewer than 10 telephone trunks (so don't need a PRI), but virtually every large business was changing out to PRI's. That's my experience; YMMV.
316:
PBX singllaing then its DPNSS, DASS2, etc?) Its not in use on mobile handsets , though once it gets beyond the air interface it does become used by the upper layers of signalling employed by the handset? Its late and I'm giving up for the night but I'm sure someone else can be along to help you in more detail.

since it was the first spelling used by the creator way back in 2006, and also since being so doesn't mean it is incorrect,. It is just issue of
English variant and perspective of editors/readers. Those who double their l's in everyday writing will see it as correct on first sight and those who know

I don't necessarily know if it's correct to say that SS7 uses "out-of-band" signaling, since that would be more like using the first 3500Hz for audio and then signaling in 3700Hz. I think it's more correct to say that SS7 uses common channel signaling, since bearer and control channels are distinctly

There is certainly a lot of history in spelling it with double-l, since that was the name primarily used around the world after the CCITT standardized it, a name that was used much less in the US, where the original publications called it Common
Channel Interoffice Signaling. This is in contrast to

I've been out of telecom for about 15 years, but even in the 1990's in
Toronto, many businesses were switching from analog to digital trunks, particularly the T-1 variety (aka "Primary Rate Interface" or PRI) where they got 23 bearer channels and 1 signalling channel. If the customer CPE was up to

Apologies if I misunderstand your question, but its generally not in use around the edge of the network. where analogue signalling or other digital signalling systems are in use such as V5, GR303(? US V5 equivalent), similar proprietary systems or perhaps ISDN, etc are used more (or in the case of

from the article, this appears to be more common in Europe than North
America? So there seems like there should be an affinity towards British English, which would use the double-l, and as the official ANSI standard also uses the double-l, the double-l form would seem to be the better choice.
351:
The term F-Link, (and A-Link, B-Link etc), are not utilised in the ITU specifications and are not commonly known in Europe. The terminology in Europe relates to whether the link is directly connected to the SP or not. All signalling links directly connected to an SP are known as an

I was a bit confused at first when I saw
Signalling System #7 but I think that the # should be in the title, I can't find a referenced source at the moment as i'm about to go out. Let's agree here first what the title should be and then make the final change once and for all.
544:. The title is capitalised, hence it should be treated as a proper noun. Since the official documentation of the standard uses the double-l, we should follow unless there's overwhelming evidence people are using this "Signaling System No 7" with the single-l as a proper noun.
256:
Sounds good enough to me. No # then seems like the way forward. Should also remove the pound tag as well at the beginning. To resolve the name completely, can you confirm whether the word 'number' included in the titles? Is is
Signaling System Number 7 or Signaling System
240:
Going to the ITU website and downloading some of the relevant specs (Q701,2 etc) theres no hash in the title - they use "No." as in
Signalling System No. 7. Its possible the hash just slipped in as shorthand by engineers rather than being part of the original name.

I don't think that is a good idea. SS7 is definitively an American/Bell System topic by origin, just like the other signaling systems. Proper names are always allowed to have any spelling, I would think.

I agree with this point of view and it meshes with the older name, CCS7. Perhaps the "out of band" comes from a T1 system with 1 channel for signaling and 23 for transport.
