该标准是基于CCITT研究小组席（第六卷，第七卷和第八节）发布的国际申请SS7的1988本蓝皮书建议Q.791和Q.795，并打算与该标准兼容。已对其进行了修改，以便在美国网络内部和网络之间使用，以满足这些实体的预期需求和应用。一般来说，修改分为两类:1）CCITT指定供国家使用的选项规范。2） 对1988年协议的扩展，以提供SS#7协议的新应用。这与当前和预计的ITU-T活动一致。本标准旨在与ANSI T1结合使用。110-1992关于7号信令系统（SS7）-一般信息，包括SS7概述、词汇表和缩略语章节。以前称为T1。116-2000（R2005）。

This standard is based on the 1988 Blue Book Recommendations Q.791 and Q.795 of SS7 for international use issued by the CCITT Study Group XI (Vol. VI, Fascicles VI.7 and VI.8) and is intended to be compatible with that standard. It has been modified for use within and between U.S. Networks to meet the anticipated needs and applications of those entities. In general, the modifications fall into two categories: 1) The specification of options designated by the CCITT for national use. 2) Extensions to the 1988 protocol to provide for new applications of the SS#7 protocol. This is in accordance with the current and projected ITU-T activity. This standard is intended for use in conjunction with ANSI T1.110-1992 on Signalling System Number 7 (SS7) - General Information, which includes an overview of SS7, a glossary, and a chapter on abbreviations. Formerly known as T1.116-2000(R2005).
