Common use of Tandem Switching Clause in Contracts

Tandem Switching. 47.1. Sprint will offer unbundled Tandem Switching in conjunction with unbundled Local Circuit Switching only where the Commission or FCC determines that unbundled Local Circuit Switching is required to be provided. Where Sprint is no longer required to provide Tandem Switching CLEC will agree to a time line to transition from unbundled Tandem Switching within thirty (30) days of the Commission or FCC finding. 47.2. Tandem Switching is the function that establishes a communications path between two switching offices (connecting trunks to trunks) through a third switching office (the tandem switch). A host/remote end office configuration is not a Tandem Switching arrangement. Sprint will provide CLEC access to the same shared transport facilities connected to the Tandem Switch that Sprint provides to its end users.
