Introduction Prior to the conformance testing and the interoperability testing of IUTs, it is necessary to have the PICS (Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement) documents for both implementations. This particular PICS deals with the implementation of the 25.6 Mb/s over Twisted Pair Cable 1.1 Scope This document provides the PICS proforma for the Mid-range Physical Layer Interface as described in the Physical Interface Specification for 25.6 Mb/s over Twisted Pair Cable [1], in compliance with the relevant requirements, and in accordance with the relevant guidelines, given in ISO/IEC 9646-2 [2]. 1.2 Normative References [1] AF-PHY-0040.000, ôPhysical Interface Specification for 25. 6Mb/s over Twisted Pair Cable, June 11,1995 [2] ISO/IEC 9646-2 1990, Information technology - Open systems inter- connection - Conformance testing methodology and framework - Part 2: Abstract test suite specification.

Supplementary information number i TC Transmission Convergence X. Exceptional information number i 1.4 Conformance Statement The supplier of a protocol implementation which is claimed to conform to the Physical Interface Specification for 25.6 Mb/s over Twisted Pair Cable is required to complete a copy of the PICS proforma provided in Section 3 and is required to provide the information necessary to identify both the supplier and the implementation. 2.0 Identification of the Implementation Implementation Under Test (IUT) Identification IUT Name: ______________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ IUT Version: ___________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ System Under Test (SUT) SUT Name: ______________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Hardware Configuration: ________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Operating System: ______________________________________________________ Product Supplier Name: __________________________________________________________________ Address: _______________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Telephone Number: ______________________________________________________ Facsimile Number: ______________________________________________________ E-mail Address (optional): _____________________________________________ Additional Information: ________________________________________________ Client Name: __________________________________________________________________ Address: _______________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Telephone Number: ______________________________________________________ Facsimile Number: ______________________________________________________ E-mail Address (optional): _____________________________________________ Additional Information: ________________________________________________ PICS Contact Person Name: __________________________________________________________________ Address: _______________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Telephone Number: ______________________________________________________ Facsimile Number: ______________________________________________________ E-mail Address (optional): _____________________________________________ Additional Information: ________________________________________________ PICS PICS-System Conformance Statement Provide the relationship of the PICS with the System Conformance Statement for the system: ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Identification of the protocol This PICS proforma applies to the following document: AF-PHY-0040.000, "Physical Interface Specification for 25.6 Mb/s over Twisted Pair Cable." 3. PICS Proforma 3.1 Global Statement of Conformance The implementation described in this PICS meets all of the mandatory requirements of the reference protocol. ___Yes ___No Note: Answering "No" indicates non-conformance to the specified protocol. Non-supported mandatory capabilities are to be identified in the following tables, with an explanation in the comments section of each table of why the implementation is non-conforming. 3.2 Instructions for Completing the PICS Proforma The PICS Proforma is a fixed-format questionnaire. Answers to the questionnaire should be provided in the rightmost columns, either by simply indicating a restricted choice (such as Yes or No), or by entering a value or a set of range of values. A supplier may also provide additional information, categorized as exceptional or supplementary information. This additional information should be provided as items labelled X. for exceptional information, or S. for supplemental information, respectively, for cross reference purposes, where is any unambiguous identification for the item. The exceptional and supplementary information is not mandatory and the PICS is complete without such information. The presence of optional supplementary or exception information should not affect test execution, and will in no way affect interoperability verification. 3.3 Physical Media Dependent (PMD) Specification ___________________________________________________________________________ Item Protocol Feature Status Spec.
