The user interface could be implemented in

* X.20

* X.20bis

* [[X21|X.21]]

* X.21bis

The synchronous X.20/X.21 interfaces were offered at a lower cost (20-30 DM per month less) than the asynchronous X.20bis/X.21bis variants, due to the simpler DCE design for synchronous networks.

Furthermore, the DCE for asynchronous interfaces had to include a keypad to allow the user to manually dial the destination subscriber.  Only the synchronous X.21 interface specifies a method how the DTE could dial directly.
