It sounds like you want the TELECOM archives. That's about
the best "book" on telephone equipment (amongst other things).

The Archives are kept on XX.LCS.MIT.EDU, in the XX:<TELECOM>
directory. They are:

	TELECOM.RECENT	Jan 1 1987 to present
	VOLUME-5.TXT	1986
	VOLUME-4.TXT	1985
	VOLUME-3.TXT	1984
	VOLUME-2.TXT	1983
	VOLUME-1.TXT	1982 and before.

The dates are approximate. I remember one volume spans 1.5 years
because I forgot to update the version number on the fiscal year
boundary and ended up filling it in at the end of the calendar year.

Someone else asked for the archives too. They are available
by anonymous FTP from XX (use any password).

Cheers,
