E911 Trunk Group Clause Samples

The E911 Trunk Group clause defines the requirements and responsibilities for establishing and maintaining dedicated telecommunications trunks used to route emergency 911 calls to the appropriate public safety answering point (PSAP). In practice, this clause specifies the technical standards, capacity, and reliability measures that must be met to ensure that emergency calls are properly prioritized and delivered without delay. By setting these standards, the clause ensures that emergency services are accessible and reliable, thereby safeguarding public safety and compliance with regulatory obligations.

E911 Trunk Group. 5.6.1 A dedicated trunk group for each NPA shall be established to each appropriate E911 switch within the local exchange area or LATA in which CLEC Offers Service. This trunk group shall be provisioned as one-way outgoing only and will utilize ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ signaling or, where available, SS7 signaling. CLEC will have administrative control for the purpose of issuing ASRs on this trunk group. Where the parties utilize SS7 signaling and the E911 network has the technology available, only one E911 trunk group shall be established to handle multiple NPAs within the local exchange area or LATA. If the E911 network does not have the appropriate technology available, a SS7 trunk group shall be established for each NPA in the local exchange area or LATA. CLEC shall provide a minimum of two (2) one-way outgoing channels on E911 trunk groups per default PSAP or default ESN assignment dedicated for originating E911 emergency service calls from the Point of Interconnection (POI) to the AT&T-13STATE E911 Selective Router switch that serves a specified geographic rate area.

This trunk group shall be set up as a one-way outgoing only and will utilize ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ signaling or, where available, SS7 signaling. Where the parties utilize SS7 signaling and the E911 network has the technology available, only one E911 trunk group shall be established to handle multiple NPAs within the local exchange area or LATA. If the E911 network does not have the appropriate technology available, a SS7 trunk group shall be established for each NPA in the local exchange area or LATA. LEVEL 3 shall provide a minimum of two (2) one- way outgoing channels on E911 trunks dedicated for originating E911 emergency service calls from the Point of Interconnection (POI) to the SBC- 13STATE E911 switch. 5.6.2 In SBC CONNECTICUT only, LEVEL 3 will comply with the CT DPUC directives regarding the E911 trunk groups. The current directive requires LEVEL 3 to establish three dedicated separate trunk groups for each Connecticut NPA, from its switch to each of the Connecticut E911 tandems. For each NPA, one trunk group using SS7 signaling will go to the Primary E911 tandem. A second trunk group using SS7 will go to the Secondary E911 tandem. The third trunk group will have ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ signaling and will go to the Primary E911 tandem and serve as a backup. These trunk groups shall be set up as a one-way outgoing only by LEVEL 3. LEVEL 3 will have administrative control for the purpose of issuing ASRs.

Such trunks shall connect the End Office ENT utilizes to provide Telephone Exchange Service and Switched Exchange Access to its Customers in a given LATA to the access Tandem(s) Verizon utilizes to provide Exchange Access in such LATA. 9.2.4 Access Toll Connecting Trunks shall be used solely for the transmission and routing of Exchange Access to allow ENT’s Customers to connect to or be connected to the interexchange trunks of any Interexchange Carrier which is connected to a Verizon access Tandem.

  • Trunk Group Connections and Ordering 5.2.1 For both One-Way and Two-Way Interconnection Trunks, if Onvoy wishes to use a technically feasible interface other than a DS1 or a DS3 facility at the POI, the Parties shall negotiate reasonable terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes) for such arrangement; and, if the Parties cannot agree to such terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes), either Party may utilize the Agreement’s dispute resolution procedures. 5.2.2 When One-Way or Two-Way Interconnection Trunks are provisioned using a DS3 interface facility, if Onvoy orders the multiplexed DS3 facilities to a Frontier Central Office that is not designated in the NECA 4 Tariff as the appropriate Intermediate Hub location (i.e., the Intermediate Hub location in the appropriate Tandem subtending area based on the LERG), and the provision of such facilities to the subject Central Office is technically feasible, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith reasonable terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes) for such arrangement; and, if the Parties cannot agree to such terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes), either Party may utilize the Agreement’s dispute resolution procedures. 5.2.3 Each Party will identify its Carrier Identification Code, a three or four digit numeric code obtained from Telcordia, to the other Party when ordering a trunk group. 5.2.4 For multi-frequency (MF) signaling each Party will out pulse ten (10) digits to the other Party, unless the Parties mutually agree otherwise. 5.2.5 Each Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to monitor trunk groups under its control and to augment those groups using generally accepted trunk- engineering standards so as to not exceed blocking objectives. Each Party agrees to use modular trunk-engineering techniques for trunks subject to this Attachment.
