"Iso" is a standard Greek-derived prefix for equivalence. I've seen it used alone in several telecom documents - sometimes totally alone, sometimes in alternation with "isofonctionnel" etc.
In my opinion, it is merely a jargonism for "equivalent (in some terms)" |

Asker: So, "iso à" is some form of "equivalent to"? Can you tell me anything further about "iso à"?
