Overview
ISO/IEC 14845:1996 defines the Call Intrusion supplementary service (SS‑CI) for Private Integrated Services Networks (PISN). The standard provides both stage 1 (service definition as seen by users) and stage 2 (functional model and information flows) specifications. SS‑CI enables a served user to establish communication with a busy called user by breaking into an existing call, with options for forced release, isolation (conference vs. disconnecting the third party), and wait‑on‑busy behavior.
Keywords: ISO/IEC 14845:1996, Call Intrusion, SS-CI, PISN, supplementary service, CICL, CIPL, ISDN, functional model, information flows.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Service semantics (stage 1):
- Definition of Call Intrusion and related states (impending intrusion, intrusion state, wait on busy).
- Invocation modes: immediate invocation, consultation.
- Implementation options: forced release, isolation, wait on busy.
- Security / protection model:
- Call Intrusion Capability Level (CICL) - served user capability range 1–3.
- Call Intrusion Protection Level (CIPL) - protection levels 0–3 for users and gateways; intrusion allowed only if CICL > CIPL of both involved parties.
- Provisioning and scope:
- SS‑CI provisioned per PISN number and may be enabled per basic service (basic services defined in ISO/IEC 11574).
- Prearrangement with service provider required for provision/withdrawal.
- Stage 2 functional specification:
- Functional entities (FE1–FE5) and their actions/behaviors are defined.
- Information flows, mapping to basic call flows, and examples of sequences are included.
- Allocation of functional entities to physical equipment and SDL diagrams are provided.
- Conformance:
- A stage 3 standard (signalling protocols and equipment behaviour) is required to claim full conformance.
Applications and who uses it
- Telecommunication equipment vendors implementing enterprise PBX / PISN features.
- Network architects and designers defining call control and supplementary services for ISDN/PISN deployments.
- Protocol and firmware developers mapping functional models into signalling (stage 3) and equipment behaviour.
- Service providers offering managed PBX or enterprise telephony services that require controlled call override/priority access (e.g., administrative override, emergency coordination) while respecting protection levels.

- ISO/IEC 11571 (numbering/sub‑addressing)

This standard is essential when designing or documenting PISN call control features where controlled intrusion into busy calls is required and must be interoperable and auditable across equipment and networks.
