Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T)

The Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a division of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) that develops and sets global standards for international telecommunications. It creates technical guidelines to ensure different communication systems—such as phone networks, internet, and broadcasting—work smoothly and securely across countries. These standards promote interoperability, improve service quality, and support the development of new technologies. By coordinating efforts worldwide, ITU-T helps ensure that our global communication infrastructure is reliable, efficient, and compatible, facilitating seamless connectivity and innovation in the telecommunication industry.
