About This Item
TS 5380 is a terminology standard for the terms and definitions used in telegraphy and telephony. Standards of this kind establish a common technical language across electrotechnics, helping engineers, educators, and technical writers use the same concepts consistently across different organisations and markets.
Concept areas covered by the vocabulary
The scope spans a broad telecommunications vocabulary, from general operating concepts to lines, systems, instruments, measurement devices, and pulse techniques. On the telegraphy side, it includes terms related to codes, transmission, equipment, and facsimile; on the telephony side, it covers subscriber apparatus, exchange equipment, and basic operational terminology. In practical terms, this kind of vocabulary standard organises the shared language used in historical and technical discussions of telegraph, telephone, and related transmission technologies.
Why this terminology matters technically
Telegraphy and telephony are built around interconnected ideas rather than a single device type: transmission media, signalling, network structure, service operation, and terminal equipment all need precise naming. Terms such as noise and distortion help describe signal quality; network and system terms describe how services are arranged; apparatus and equipment terms distinguish the physical components involved. As a reference vocabulary, the standard supports clear and consistent use of technical language in this domain.
