Don't believe everything you read. Baudot code was a five-bit code for a 
teletype-like machine (with two modal shift characters so some keys had 
three meanings). CCITT was a standards organization, now superceded. For 
all I know, Baudot may have been the subject of one of their standards.

What gives you an idea that EDTN has anything to do with deafness? If it 
does, it may be similar to TTY/TDD in the U.S.
