  Signalling System #7 (SS7) | TelecomSpace
SS7 or Signaling System Number 7 is simply another set of protocols that describe a means of communication between telephone switches in public telephone networks.
SS#7 is the defined interoffice signalling protocol for ISDN.
Signaling links utilize DS–0 channels and carry raw signaling data at a rate of 56 kbps or 64 kbps (56 kbps is the more common implementation).

Signalling System Number 7 (SS7, C7, No 7) is an example of a common channel signalling system, defined for use in public switched networks where large numbers of circuits are switched between subscribers.
SS7 is defined as a number of independent blocks of functionality, each implementing a specific function and having a defined interface.
Before an SS7 link is able to convey information from the higher layers, the layer 2 entities at each end of the link follow a handshaking procedure known as the proving period, lasting for 0.5 to 8.2 seconds (depending on the availability of routes served by the link in question).

The SS7 message traffic generated by this last, negotiating, function is called "ISUP" traffic (short for "ISDN User Part"), and it provides an astonishingly detailed and inexpensive source of information for the traffic engineering, planning, regulatory affairs, accounting and marketing departments in a telephone company.
Your monitoring system must be able to deal with very large volumes of messages, and to produce a CCR for every call attempt between the switches you're studying.
They are powerful systems, to be sure, configured with as much processor power and memory and the fastest hard discs we can find, but they are otherwise standard systems with neither exotic nor proprietary hardware.

 Signaling System 7 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Signaling System #7 (SS7) is a set of telephony signaling protocols which are used to set up the vast majority of the world's PSTN telephone calls.
SS7 was designed to replace Signalling System #5 (SS5) and Signalling System #6 (SS6) and R2, all of which are ITU standards defined by ITU-T prior to SS7 and were once in widespread international use.
Modern designs of telephone equipment that implement in-band signaling protocols explicitly keep the end-user's audio path—the so-called speech path—separate from the signaling phase to eliminate the possibility that the MF tones used for signaling are introduced by the end-user, which defeats the blue-box phreaking technique.

 GLOSSARY OF TERMS
This signalling system was DC based and used on early electronic PABX's.
These are normally connected to Telephone Systems and the lines only return dial tone on receipt of a loop on the line, followed by an earth condition.
MF signalling was first used in the UK on PABX's and is now also used on the modern electronic exchanges.

 SS7 Tutorial by Performance Technologies
The ITU definition of SS7 allows for national variants such as the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and Bell Communications Research (Telcordia Technologies) standards used in North America and the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) standard used in Europe.
Because the SS7 network is critical to call processing, SCPs and STPs are usually deployed in mated pair configurations in separate physical locations to ensure network-wide service in the event of an isolated failure.
Signaling links are logically organized by link type ("A" through "F") according to their use in the SS7 signaling network.

 What is Signalling System No. 7 (SS7) ?
Signalling System 7(SS7) is the dedicated, robust, and independent data network that allows exchanges (switches) in a PSTN network to echange messages about call setup, management, and tear down amogst themselves.
The SS7 network comprises of Signalling Points, which are the actual gateways to the PSTN network.
Quasi-associated signalling is similar to nonassociated signaling with a logical separation, but uses a smaller number of dedicated STPs to handle the signalling path.

 Engineer Live - Embedding Signalling System #7 into the next generation of systems
In the buzzword-driven world of telecommunications, Signalling System #7 (SS7) is being drowned out by the market-hyped promises of next generation networks like IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and 4th Generation (4G) Wireless (3G Long-Term Evolution, Mobile WiMAX, Ultra Mobile Broadband, etc).
In contrast, SIP signalling has extended beyond a call model to support all kinds of communications activities, namely voice, video, conferencing, etc., and follows a peer-to-peer approach with the intelligence moved from the core to the edge of the network.
SS7 interworking solutions that solve the challenges of non-standard protocol conversion and performance scalability, and are based on open standards components, offer an optimised path to embed multi-protocol signalling gateway functionality into Next Generation Network (NGN) platforms.

 World Power Systems:Texts:Annotated history of character codes
What may not be obvious is that Morse's system is also a recording system; it recorded it's signals on a narrow strip of paper with a pen, making little wiggles when the voltage on the wire changed; the operator would decode these afterwards.
Samuel Morse's system is today called "digital" but is more accurately called "discrete"; with a switch, controlled by a human hand or a machine, battery voltage is applied or removed from the wire, and detected instantaneously at the other end.
Since people didn't have to impress bit patterns onto the wires with their fingers, he was free to arrange his code for the benefit of the machinery; all that the operators had to do was press the appropriately-labeled key top, the machinery did the dirty work.
