[edit]The structure of the numbering system of the public switched telephone network is geographic, with number portability, as follows:[1]
DN + NDC + SN = NSN = NJ XPQ MCDU
DN (Network code) = NJ
NDC (Numbering area) = XPQ
SN (Subscriber number) = MCDU
For landlines, 3J XPQ MCDU where J cannot be 0.
'M', 'C', 'D', and 'U' stand for thousands, hundreds, tens, and units, respectively.
