IXC Traffic Clause Samples
The IXC Traffic clause governs the handling and routing of telecommunications traffic that passes through an Interexchange Carrier (IXC). It typically outlines the responsibilities of each party regarding the origination, termination, and transport of long-distance calls, including any requirements for call routing, signaling, and reporting. For example, it may specify how traffic is to be identified as IXC, how records are exchanged, and how disputes over traffic volumes are resolved. The core function of this clause is to ensure that both parties clearly understand their obligations for managing IXC traffic, thereby reducing the risk of disputes and ensuring compliance with regulatory and contractual requirements.
IXC Traffic. 8.2.1 All traffic between WSP and the AT&T-13STATE Access Tandem or combined local/Access Tandem destined to be routed to, or that has been routed from, an interexchange carrier (“IXC”) connected with such AT&T-13STATE Access Tandem or combined local/Access Tandem shall be transported over an Equal Access Trunk Group. This arrangement requires a separate Trunk Group employing a Type 2 interface when AT&T-13STATE is not able to record WSP-originated traffic to an IXC. WSP will also provide to AT&T-13STATE, using industry standard data record formats, recordings of all calls (both completed calls and attempts) to IXCs from WSP’s network using Trunks employing a Type 2A interface. This Equal Access Trunk Group will be established for the transmission and routing of all traffic between WSP’s End Users and IXCs via an AT&T-13STATE Access Tandem or combined local/Access Tandem. WSP is solely financially responsible for the facilities, termination, muxing, trunk ports and any other equipment used to provide such Equal Access Trunk Groups.
IXC Traffic. 11.2.1 Carrier may send traffic to IXCs via Type 2A interface utilizing FGD protocol.
11.2.2 If traffic is handed from Telco directly to an IXC, from Carrier directly to an IXC, from Carrier to an IXC via Trunks with Type 2A interfaces, or from an IXC directly to Telco, access charges shall not apply to Carrier.
11.2.3 When used in the Carrier to Telco direction, Trunks employing a Type 2A interface may be provided to a Telco Tandem Switch to transport calls from Carrier's premises to an IXC's Switched Access Services Feature Group D service at the same Tandem Switch.
11.2.4 When the Parties jointly provide access service to an IXC, each Party will provide its own part of the access service to the IXC. Each Party will bill its own access services rates to the IXC. Pursuant to the procedures described in Multiple Exchange Carrier Access Billing (“MECAB”) document SR-BDS-000983, Issue 5, June 1994, the Parties shall provide to each other the Switched Access Detail Usage Data and Switched Access Summary Usage Data to bill for jointly provided service, such as Telco’s Switched Access Service or Carrier’s access service. The Parties shall provide this data to each other at no charge. If the procedures in the MECAB document are amended or modified, the Parties shall implement such amended or modified procedures within a reasonable period of time. Each Party shall provide the other Party the billing name, billing address, and carrier identification code (“CIC”) of the IXCs that may utilize any portion of that Party's network in order to comply with the Meet Point Billing (“MPB”) Notification process as outlined in the MECAB document.
11.2.5 THIS SECTION 11.2.5 APPLIES ONLY IN ILLINOIS, INDIANA, MICHIGAN, OHIO AND WISCONSIN. This arrangement requires a separate Trunk Group employing a Type 2 interface.

IXC Traffic. 6.2.1 All traffic between Carrier and the SBC-13STATE Access Tandem or combined local/Access Tandem destined to be routed to, or that has been routed from, an interexchange carrier (“IXC”) shall be transported over an Equal Access Trunk Group separate from the local Interconnection Trunk Group. This Equal Access Trunk Group will be established for the transmission and routing of all traffic between Carrier’s End User Customers and IXCs via a SBC-13STATE Access Tandem or combined local/Access Tandem. Carrier is solely financially responsible for the Facilities, termination, muxing, trunk ports and any other equipment used to provide such Equal Access Trunk Groups.
IXC Traffic. 9.2.1 All traffic between WSP and the SBC-13STATE Access Tandem or combined local/Access Tandem that has been routed from an interexchange carrier (“IXC”) connected with such SBC-13STATE Access Tandem or combined local/Access Tandem to be delivered to WSP shall be transported over a Type 2A Local/Equal Access Combined Trunk Group or Type 2A Equal Access Trunk Group. This Local/Equal Access Combined Trunk Group or Equal Access Trunk Group will be established for the transmission and routing of all such traffic to be delivered to WSP between IXC’s and WSP’s End Users via an SBC-13STATE Access Tandem or combined local/Access Tandem.
9.2.2 WSP is solely financially responsible for the facilities, termination, muxing, trunk ports and any other equipment used to provide one-way mobile to land Type 2A Local/Equal Access Combined Trunk Group and Type 2A Equal Access Trunk Groups when WSP delivers IXC traffic (other than overflow traffic as referenced in Sections 9.2.3 and 9.2.4) in a mobile to land direction to SBC-13STATE Access Tandem or combined local/Access Tandem.
9.2.3 Except for overflow traffic that may be delivered over a Type 1 Trunk Group, WSP will not originate traffic destined to be delivered or routed to an IXC; therefore, no separate Type 2A Equal Access Trunk Group is required, as provided in Section 2.4.1. If the overflow exceeds a DS1’s worth of traffic, WSP agrees to establish a Trunk Group outlined in Section 3.4.1.
9.2.4 Overflow IXC traffic that exceeds a DS1 requires a separate Trunk Group employing a Type 2 interface when SBC-13STATE is not able to record WSP-originated traffic to an IXC. WSP will also provide to SBC-13STATE, using industry standard data record formats, recordings of all calls (both completed calls and attempts) to IXCs from WSP's network using Trunks employing a Type 2A interface. This Equal Access Trunk Group will be established for the transmission and routing of all traffic between ’s and IXCs via an SBC-13STATE Access Tandem or combined local/Access Tandem. WSP is solely financially responsible for the facilities, termination, muxing, trunk ports and any other equipment used to provide such Equal Access Trunk Groups.
