Interconnection Points. 8.5.1 The IP of a Party (“Receiving Party”) for Measured Internet Traffic delivered to the Receiving Party by the other Party shall be the same as the IP of the Receiving Party for Reciprocal Compensation Traffic under Section 7.1 above.
8.5.2 Except as otherwise set forth in the applicable Tariff of a Party (“Receiving Party”) that receives Toll Traffic from the other Party, the IP of the Receiving Party for Toll Traffic delivered to the Receiving Party by the other Party shall be the same as the IP of the Receiving Party for Reciprocal Compensation Traffic under Section 7.1 above.
8.5.3 The IP for traffic exchanged between the Parties that is not Reciprocal Compensation Traffic, Measured Internet Traffic or Toll Traffic, shall be as specified in the applicable provisions of this Agreement or the applicable Tariff of the receiving Party, or in the absence of applicable provisions in this Agreement or a Tariff of the receiving Party, as mutually agreed by the Parties.
Interconnection Points. Local interconnection is available at any technically feasible point within BellSouth’s network. Interconnection is currently available at the following points:
1.2.1 Trunk-side of local switch.
1.2.2 Trunk interconnection points for tandem switch.
1.2.3 Central office cross-connect points.
1.2.4 Out-of-band signal transfer points.
1.2.5 Interconnection at applicable unbundled network element points is also available.
Interconnection Points. Each Party shall establish Interconnection Points (“IPs”) at the available locations designated in Schedule 4.1. The mutually agreed-upon IPs on the MFN network from which MFN will provide transport and termination of traffic to its Customers shall be designated as the MFN Interconnection Points (“MFN-IPs”). The mutually agreed-upon IPs on the BA network from which BA will provide transport and termination of traffic to its Customers shall be designated as the BA Interconnection Point(s) (“BA-IP(s)”); provided that such BA-IP(s) shall be either the BA terminating End Office serving the BA Customer or the BA Tandem subtended by the terminating End Office serving the BA Customer. Each Party is responsible for delivering its terminating traffic to the other Party’s relevant IP.
4.2.2.1 Each Party shall make available at least one designated IP in each NPA in each LATA in which it has Customers, as designated in Schedule 4.2. Any additional traffic that is not covered in Schedule 4.2 shall be subject to separate negotiations between the Parties, except that either Party may deliver traffic of any type or character to the other Party for termination as long as the delivering Party pays the receiving Party’s then current tariffed Switched Exchange Access rates applicable to such traffic.
Interconnection Points. Local interconnection is available at any technically feasible point within BellSouth’s network. Interconnection is currently available at the following points:
1.2.1 Trunk-side of local switch.
1.2.2 Trunk interconnection points for tandem switch.
1.2.3 Central office cross-connect points.
1.2.4 Out-of-band signal transfer points.
1.2.5 Interconnection at applicable unbundled network element points is also available.
1.2.6 US LEC may obtain local interconnection at any other technically feasible point. Requests for interconnection at other points may be made through the Bona Fide Request/New Business Request process set out in Attachment 9.
Interconnection Points. The Parties shall establish physical Interconnection Points (“IPs”) at the locations designated on Schedule 4.0, which shall be revised from time to time in accordance with the requirements of this Section. The points on the Level 3 network at which BA shall hand off Local Traffic and Compensable Internet Traffic to Level 3 are designated as the Xxxxx 0 Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx (“Level 3-IPs”). The points on the BA network at which Level 3 shall hand off Local Traffic and Compensable Internet Traffic to BA are designated as the BA Interconnection Points (“BA-IPs”). Each Party, as an Originating Party, may request that the other Party, as a Receiving Party, establish IPs on the Receiving Party’s network that are geographically-relevant to the NXXs (and associated rate centers) that are assigned by the Receiving Party. In the case of BA as a Receiving Party, to the extent Level 3 requests BA to establish a geographically-relevant IP in addition to the BA-IPs at the BA Tandems, the geographically-relevant IP shall be the BA End Office serving the Customer for whom the traffic is intended. In the case of Level 3 as a Receiving Party, BA may request, and Level 3 will then establish, geographically-relevant IPs by establishing a Level 3-IP at a Collocation site at each BA Tandem in a LATA (or, in the case of a single Tandem LATA, at each BA End Office Host), for those NXXs serving equivalent BA rate centers which subtend the BA Tandem (or BA End Office Host). For purposes of this Section 4.2.34.1, the Parties agree that Level 3-IPs at Collocation sites at the BA Tandems shown in Schedule 4.0 represent geographically relevant IPs for the LATAs listed in Schedule 4.0. In any LATA in which BA agrees that Level 3 may meet its obligation to establish geographically relevant IPs through a Collocation site at fewer than all of the BA Tandems (or BA End Office Host) in a LATA, including the LATAs identified in Schedule 4.0, then BA shall determine and advise Level 3 as to which Level 3 IP established at a Collocation site (or other available Level 3 IP) BA will deliver traffic from each relevant originating rate center or other originating location. If Level 3 fails to establish a geographically-relevant IP as provided herein within a commercially reasonable time, then Level 3 shall xxxx and BA shall pay only the applicable Intercarrier Compensation Rate for the relevant NXX, as set forth in Section 5.7 below, less BA’s monthly recurring rate for unbundled dedicated inter...
Interconnection Points. 3.2.1 In each LATA where the Parties interconnect, CLEC and SBC ILLINOIS shall Interconnect their networks at the correspondingly identified SBC ILLINOIS Tandem Switch Center POIs and CLEC Switch Center POIs in such LATAs for the transmission and routing within that LATA of Telephone Exchange Service traffic and Exchange Access traffic pursuant to Section 251(c)(2) of the Act.
3.2.2 As provided in Section 251(c)(2) of the Act, CLEC, at its option, may request and SBC will provide Interconnection of its facilities and equipment to SBC ILLINOIS’ network at any technically feasible point in SBC ILLINOIS’ network, including a mid-span meet arrangement.
3.2.3 With respect to the POI selected for the delivery of traffic, each party may: (1) designate either a DS-1 or DS-3 interface at any POI location, (2) designate an OC- 3, OC-12, OC-24 or OC-48 interface for any POI located at an SBC ILLINOIS tandem or facility hubbing location, or CLEC switching center, or (3), with the mutual agreement of the Parties, select another technically feasible interface. The interface will be commensurate with reasonable forecast of interconnection traffic at that POI.
3.2.4 Each Party shall: (i) provide trained personnel with adequate and compatible test equipment to work with each other's technicians, and (ii) provide maintenance and provisioning for their respective sides of the demarcation point.
3.2.5 Point of Interconnection (POIs): A Point of Interconnection (POI) is a point in the network where the Parties deliver Interconnection traffic to each other, and also serves as a demarcation point between the facilities that each Party is responsible to provide. In many cases, multiple POI(s) may be necessary to increase operating efficiency for both parties. Both parties may negotiate the architecture in each location.
3.2.5.1 Where SBC ILLINOIS’ end offices subtend another ILEC’s tandem switch for local traffic and/or exchange access, CLEC may, at its discretion, interconnect with SBC ILLINOIS for local traffic and/or exchange access utilizing the other ILEC’s tandem switch or at the SBC ILLINOIS end office. If CLEC elects interconnection via the third party tandem switch, it shall designate a POI within the operating territory of SBC ILLINOIS and deliver its originating traffic to SBC ILLINOIS at this POI. Each party is responsible for the facilities on its side of any POI(s) established under such conditions. Each party is responsible for ensuring that any facilities provided...
