DCS Technical Requirements. 8.6.1 DCS shall provide completed end-to-end cross connection of the channels designated by Eastland of Orlando. 8.6.2 Where technically available in BellSouth's DCS system and supported by BellSouth's network management software, DCS shall provide multiplexing, format conversion, signaling conversion, or other functions. 8.6.3 The end-to-end cross connection assignment shall be input to the underlying device used to provide DCS from an operator at a terminal or via an intermediate system. The cross connection assignment shall remain in effect whether or not the circuit is in use. 8.6.4 BellSouth shall continue to administer and maintain DCS, including updates to the control software to current available releases. 8.6.5 BellSouth shall provide various types of Digital Cross-Connect Systems including: 8.6.5.1 DS0 cross-connects (typically termed DCS 1/0); 8.6.5.2 DS1/VT1.5 (Virtual Tributaries at the 1.5Mbps rate) cross-connects (typically termed DCS 3/1); 8.6.5.3 DS3 cross-connects (typically termed DCS 3/3); 8.6.5.4 STS-1 cross-connects; and 8.6.5.5 Other technically feasible cross-connects designated by Eastland of Orlando. 8.6.6 DCS shall continuously monitor protected circuit packs and redundant common equipment. 8.6.7 Where technically available in BellSouth’s DCS System, DCS shall automatically switch to a protection circuit pack on detection of a failure or degradation of normal operation. 8.6.8 The underlying equipment used to provide DCS shall be equipped with a redundant power supply or a battery back-up. 8.6.9 BellSouth shall make available to Eastland of Orlando spare facilities and equipment necessary for provisioning repairs, as it does for itself and for its own customers. 8.6.10 Where technically available in BellSouth’s DCS System and supported by BellSouth’s network management software, DCS shall perform optical to electrical conversion where the underlying equipment used to provide DCS contains optical interfaces or terminations (e.g., Optical Carrier level 3, i.e., OC-3, interfaces on a DCS 3/1). 8.6.11 Where technically available in BellSouth’s DCS System and supported by BellSouth’s network management software, DCS shall have SONET ring terminal functionality where the underlying equipment used to provide DCS acts as a terminal on a SONET ring. 8.6.12 Where technically available in BellSouth’s DCS System and supported by BellSouth’s network management software, DCS shall provide multipoint bridging of multiple channels to other DCSs. Eastland of Orlando may designate multipoint bridging to be one-way broadcast from a single master to multiple tributaries, or two-way broadcast between a single master and multiple tributaries. 8.6.13 Where technically available in BellSouth’s DCS System and supported by BellSouth’s network management software, DCS shall multiplex lower speed channels onto a higher speed interface and demultiplex higher speed channels onto lower speed interfaces as designated by Eastland of Orlando. 8.6.14 Where technically available in BellSouth’s DCS System and supported by BellSouth’s network management software, DCS shall perform signaling conversion and data conditioning as designated by Eastland of Orlando.
