5 | h2. User interface |
||
6 | |||
7 | The user interface could be implemented in |
||
8 | * X.20 |
||
9 | * X.20bis |
||
10 | * [[X21|X.21]] |
||
11 | * X.21bis |
||
12 | |||
13 | 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. |
||
14 | |||
15 | 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. |
