Technical Interfaces. 3.2.6.1 The Interconnection facilities provided by each Party shall be formatted using either Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI) line code with Superframe format framing or Bipolar 8-Zero Substitution with Extended Superframe (B8ZS ESF) format framing or any mutually agreeable line coding and framing.
Technical Interfaces. 60.11.1 CLEC is responsible for provisioning its traffic to CenturyLink’s switch port at the DS1 level, including any muxing necessary for such purposes.
60.11.2 Standard Interconnection facilities shall be extended superframe (ESF) with B8ZS line code where Currently Available.
Technical Interfaces. 2.2.7.1 Electrical handoffs at the POI(s) will be DS1 or DS3 as mutually agreed to by the parties. When a DS3 handoff is agreed to by the Parties, each Party will provide all required multiplexing at their respective end.
2.2.7.2 Where available and upon the request of the other Party, each Party shall cooperate to ensure that its trunk groups are configured utilizing the B8ZS Extended Superframe protocol for 64 kbps Clear Channel Capability (64CCC) transmission to allow for ISDN interoperability between the Parties’ respective networks. Trunk groups configured for 64CCC and carrying Circuit Switched Data (CSD) ISDN calls shall carry the appropriate Trunk Type Modifier in the CLCI-Message code. Trunk groups configured for 64CCC and not used to carry CSD ISDN calls shall carry a different appropriate Trunk Type Modifier in the CLCI-Message code.
Technical Interfaces. 2.7.1 The Interconnection facilities provided by each Party shall be formatted using B8ZS with Extended Superframe format framing.
2.7.2 Electrical handoffs at the POI(s) will be DS1, DS3 or STS-1 as mutually agreed to by the parties. When a DS3 or STS-1 handoff is agreed to by the Parties, each Party will provide all required multiplexing at their respective end.
Technical Interfaces. 65.11.1 CLEC is responsible for provisioning its traffic to CenturyLink’s switch port at the DS1 level, including any muxing necessary for such purposes.
65.11.2 Where available, each Party shall cooperate to ensure that its trunk groups are configured utilizing the B8ZS Extended Superframe protocol for 64 kbps Clear Channel Capability (64CCC) transmission to allow for ISDN interoperability between the Parties’ respective networks. Trunk groups configured for 64CCC and carrying Circuit Switched Data (CSD) ISDN calls may include the appropriate Trunk Type Modifier in the common line circuit (CLCI) - Message code. Trunk groups configured for 64CCC and not used to carry CSD ISDN calls may include a different appropriate Trunk Type Modifier in the CLCI-Message code. Where ESF/B8ZS is not available CLEC will use other Interconnection protocols on an interim basis until the standard ESF/B8ZS is available. CenturyLink will provide anticipated dates of availability for those areas not currently ESF/B8ZS compatible.
Technical Interfaces. 56.10.1 Carrier is responsible for provisioning its traffic to CenturyLink’s switch port at the DS1 level, including any muxing necessary for such purposes.
56.10.2 Standard Interconnection facilities shall be extended superframe (ESF) with B8ZS line code where currently available.
Technical Interfaces. Electrical handoffs at the POI(s) will be DS1 or DS3 as mutually agreed to by the parties. When a DS3 handoff is agreed to by the Parties, each Party will provide all required multiplexing at their respective end.
Technical Interfaces. 7.2.1 When interconnecting at AT&T ILLINOIS’ switches, the Parties have a preference for use of B8ZS ESF trunks for all traffic between their networks. Where available, each Party shall cooperate to ensure that its trunk groups are configured utilizing the B8ZS ESF protocol. Where AMI trunks are used, either Party may request upgrade to B8ZS ESF when such equipment is available and deployed.
7.2.2 The Parties agree to provide facility electrical handoffs of DS1 or DS3 and at optical handoffs of OCn levels where available and mutually agreed between the Parties.
Technical Interfaces. 7.2.1 When interconnecting at AT&T MICHIGAN’s switches, the Parties shall use B8ZS ESF one- way or two-way trunks for all traffic between their networks where available Where AMI trunks are used, either Party may request upgrade to B8ZS ESF when such equipment is available.
Technical Interfaces. 56.10.1 Carrier is responsible for provisioning its traffic t port at the DS1 level, including any muxing necessary for such purposes.
56.10.2 Standard Interconnection facilities shall be extended superframe (ESF) with B8ZS line code where currently available.
