system of any organization
The nervous system transports
different kinds of signs and
orders, sounds, images, touch,
heat, cold, etc.
An IP telecommunications
network transports in a
transparent way different
kinds of information: voice,
data, video, control.
We have evolved from
separate service-specific
networks to a single network.
We are moving on to a more
efficient and natural solution.

Members of the STC are required to be independent and are restricted under the STC
Code Of Ethics from selling any product or service other than independent services.
Every consultant member must sign annually renewing and reinforcing their
independence and ethics by signing the Code Of Ethics as follows:
Every member has the professional responsibility of fair dealing toward the member's clients,
past and present, fellow members, and the general public.
Every member has the professional responsibility of adhering to generally accepted standards of
accuracy, truth, and good taste at all times.
No member shall represent conflicting or competing interests, nor shall be placed in a position
where the member's interest is, or may be, in conflict with duty to the client.
Each member shall safeguard the confidences of both present and former clients, and shall not
accept retainers which may involve the disclosure or use of these confidences to the
disadvantage or prejudice of such clients.
No member shall intentionally disseminate false or misleading information, and each member is
obligated to use as much care as is humanly possible to avoid dissemination of false or
misleading information.

43. STC’s Code of Ethics (II)
No member shall intentionally injure the professional reputation or practice of another member.
However, if a member has evidence that another member has been guilty of unethical, illegal, or
unfair practices, including practices in violation of this Code, the member is obligated to present
the information to the proper authorities of the Society for action in accordance with the
procedure set forth in the by-laws.
In performing services for a client, no member shall accept fees, commissions, or any other
valuable consideration in connection with those services from anyone other than the member's
client.
Each member shall, prior to the commencement of the services to be performed, make the client
fully aware of the fee structure, and all associated costs.
It is imperative that no member should be in conflict by retaining ownership in any company
selling or leasing telecommunications products where such interest constitutes a conflict of
interest.
A member shall, as soon as possible, sever the relationship with any organization when the
member knows or should know that continued employment would require the member to conduct
himself contrary to the good conduct principles of this Code.
