Jointly Provided Switched Access. The Parties will use industry standards developed and routing based on the LERG to handle the Provisioning and Billing of Jointly Provided Switched Access (MECAB, MECOD, and the Parties' FCC and state access Tariffs). Each Party will xxxx the IXC the appropriate portion of its Switched Access rates. Qwest will also provide the one-time notification to CLEC of the billing name, billing address and Carrier identification codes of the IXCs subtending any Access Tandem Switches to which CLEC directly connects. This type of traffic is discussed separately in this Section.
Jointly Provided Switched Access. The applicable Switched Access rates will be billed by the Parties to the IXC based on MECAB guidelines and each Party's respective FCC and state access Tariffs.
Jointly Provided Switched Access. 7.2.2.4.1 The Parties will use industry standards developed to handle the Provisioning and Billing of Jointly Provided Switched Access Service (such as MECAB, MECOD, SECAB, and the Parties’ FCC and state access Tariffs). Each Party will xxxx the IXC the appropriate portion of its Switched Access Service rates. Qwest will also provide the one-time notification to CLEC of the Billing name, Billing address and Carrier identification codes of the IXCs subtending any access tandems to which CLEC directly connects. This type of traffic is discussed separately in this Section. Qwest will deliver to CLEC all Jointly Provided Switched Access traffic that it receives from IXCs destined to CLEC End User Customers. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, such traffic must be delivered by Qwest over the Jointly Provided Switched Access trunk groups groomed for a specific CLEC end office (i.e., those publicly-dialable NPA NXX Codes served by that end office).
7.2.2.4.2 The Parties will exchange SS7 signaling messages with one another, where and as available. Subject to Section 7.3.8.1, the Parties will provide all line information signaling parameters including, but not limited to, Calling Party Number (CPN) (unless CPN is unavailable as described in 47 CFR 64.1601(d)), Charge Number (if it is different from CPN), and originating line information ("OLI"). For terminating FGD, either Party will pass any CPN it receives from other Carriers. All privacy indicators will be honored. Where available, network signaling information such as Transit Network Selection ("TNS") parameter (SS7 environment) will be provided by the end office Party wherever such information is needed for call routing or Billing. Where TNS information has not been provided by the end office Party, the tandem Party will Route originating Switched Access Service Traffic to the IXC using available translations. The Parties will follow all industry Ordering and Billing Forum (OBF) adopted guidelines pertaining to TNS codes.
Jointly Provided Switched Access. The Parties will use industry standards developed to handle the provisioning and billing of jointly provided switched access (MECAB, MECOD, and the Parties’ FCC and state access Tariffs). Each Party will xxxx the IXC the appropriate portion of its Switched Access rates. Qwest will also provide the one-time notification to SBCT of the billing name, billing address and carrier identification codes of the IXCs subtending any access tandems to which SBCT directly connects. This type of traffic is discussed separately in this Section.
Jointly Provided Switched Access. When AT&T 9-STATE and Sprint jointly provide switched access services to an IXC regarding the delivery of Telephone Toll Service or Toll Free Service (e.g., originating 8YY services), each Party will provide its own access services to the IXC. The Party identified in the LERG as the Access Tandem provider for such calls will make available to the other Party appropriate billing records at no charge, and each Party will bill its own access services to the IXC.
Jointly Provided Switched Access. 6.2.4.4.1 The Parties will use industry standards developed to handle the provisioning and billing of Jointly Provided switched Access (MECAB, MECOD, and the appropriate Access Tariffs). Each Party will xxxx the IXC the appropriate portion of its switched Access rates. Qwest will also provide the one-time notification to WSP of the billing name, billing address and the Carrier Identification Codes (CIC) of the IXCs subtending any Access Tandems to which WSP directly connects. This type of traffic is discussed separately in this Section. 6.2.4.5 Interface Code Availability 6.2.4.5.1 Supervisory signaling specifications, and the applicable Network Channel Interface codes for Type 2 trunks, are the same as those defined in Telcordia Reference Documents GR-145-CORE and BR-795-403-100.
Jointly Provided Switched Access. The Parties will use industry standards and routing based on the LERG to handle the Provisioning and Billing of Jointly Provided Switched Access (MECAB, MECOD, and the Parties' FCC and state access Tariffs). Each Party will bill the IXC the appropriate portion of its Switched Access rates. CenturyLink will also provide the one-time notification to CLEC of the billing name, billing address and Carrier identification codes of the IXCs subtending any Access Tandem Switches to which CLEC directly connects. This type of traffic is discussed separately in this Section. 7.2.2.5 Standards.
7.2.2.5.1 Interface Code Availability. Supervisory signaling specifications, and the applicable network channel interface codes for LIS trunks can be found in the CenturyLink Technical Publication for Local Interconnection Service 77398.
Jointly Provided Switched Access. The applicable Switched Access rates will be billed by the Parties to the IXC based on MECAB guidelines and each Party’s respective FCC and state access Tariffs.
7.3.8 Qwest and CLEC are required to provide each other the proper signaling information (e.g., originating call party number and destination call party number, etc.) to enable each Party to issue bills in a complete and timely fashion. All CCS signaling parameters will be provided including Calling Party Number (CPN), originating line information (OLI), calling party category, charge number, etc. All privacy indicators will be honored. If either Party fails to provide CPN or reasonable alternative (e.g., charge-to-number), and cannot substantiate technical restrictions (i.e., MF signaling) such traffic will be billed as Switched Access. Since Qwest is a transit provider for many carriers, the traffic sent to CLEC without CPN (valid originating information) will be handled in the following manner. The transit provider will be responsible for only its portion of this traffic, which will not exceed more than 5% of the total Exchange Service EAS/Local and Exchange Access (IntraLATA Toll) Traffic delivered to the other Party. Qwest will provide to CLEC upon request information to demonstrate that Qwest’s portion of no CPN traffic does not exceed 5% of the total traffic delivered.
Jointly Provided Switched Access. When Parties choose to participate in Jointly Provided Switched Access they will agree to use industry standards developed to handle the joint provisioning and billing of Switched Access to Interexchange Carriers (MECAB, MECOD, and the Parties’ FCC and State Access Tariffs). Each Party will xxxx the IXC the appropriate portion of its Switched Access rates. Qwest will also provide the one-time notification to Cellular 29 of the billing name, billing address and carrier identification codes of each of the IXCs subtending any Access Tandems to which Cellular 29 directly connects. This type of traffic is discussed separately in this Section. (B)2.2.5 Interface Code Availability. Supervisory signaling specifications, and the applicable network channel interface codes for Type 2 trunks, are the same as those defined in Telcordia Reference Documents GR-145-CORE and BR- 000-000-000.
