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. ChrisUK ( talk) 05:40, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
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. beardybloke ( talk) 11:17, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
Where is the protocol not in use in the PTSN? Is it used internally for pulse-dialed and touchtone landlines after the local central office? Is it used by cell phone handsets? -- Beland ( talk) 18:36, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
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 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. 99.235.138.200 ( talk) 14:58, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
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 Associated Signalling links, irrespective of whether they are connecting to an SEP, STP etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.91.191.29 ( talk) 11:06, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Signaling System No 7 → Signalling System No. 7 – The name of the standard in ITU-T specifications ITU-T Recommendation Q.700 is the proposed title. Also, my hard copy of the American National Standards Institute ANSI T1.111-1992 has the proposed title, Signalling System No. 7. The current article title is simply wrong. — Dgtsyb ( talk) 02:35, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
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 separated in SS7. 63.211.239.34 ( talk) 19:53, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

In the physical network section, there are references to ‘timeslots’. The first of which links to an article on broadcast programming. Could someone clarify what that means in this context and potentially change that link? - Chip🐺 • #TeamTrees🌳 19:09, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
