Common use of Methods of Interconnection Clause in Contracts

Methods of Interconnection. A. There are three appropriate methods of interconnecting facilities: (1) interconnection via purchase of facilities from either party by the other party; (2) physical collocation; and (3) virtual collocation where physical collocation is not practical for technical reasons or because of space limitations. Type 1, Type 2A and Type 2B and other interconnection arrangements described in BellSouth’s General Subscriber Services Tariff, Section A35, or, in the case of North Carolina, in the North Carolina Connection and Traffic Interchange Agreement effective June 30, 1994, as amended, may be purchased pursuant to this Agreement subject, however, to the sharing of recurring charges for certain transport facilities for Local Traffic as more fully set forth in this section. B. The parties will accept and provide any of the preceding methods of interconnection. Connectivity shall be established to at least one BellSouth access tandem within every LATA Carrier desires to serve, or Carrier may elect to interconnect directly at an end office. In the event a party interconnects via the purchase of facilities and/or services from the other party, the appropriate intrastate tariff, as amended from time to time will apply. The parties acknowledge, however, that with respect to such facilities that run from BellSouth’s tandem or end office to Carrier’s first switch or terminal as the case may be, in the same LATA as the interconnected BellSouth tandem or end office, the applicable recurring charges for such facilities will be shared by the parties with BellSouth responsible for 85% of the facility charges and Carrier responsible for 15% of the facility charges, except that BellSouth shall only share the cost of the first twenty-five (25) miles of interoffice facilities, with Carrier responsible for all other interoffice facility charges. Sharing of recurring facilitiy charges shall apply to activated trunks only. Carrier shall be and remain solely responsible for all installation and other nonrecurring charges for such facilities. C. The decision to activate facilities for which charges are shared will be made by the party responsible for the majority of the recurring charges for the facility. This decision will be based on traffic information from studies performed by BellSouth or, if BellSouth has not or will not perform such studies, by traffic information provided by Carrier. Recurring facility charges sharing will be at the DS1 level for transport facilities at the DS1 or higher level. If trunks have been activated in quantities exceeding the capacity of a full DS1, but not sufficient to fully occupy an additional DS1, sharing will be rounded up to the next DS1. Sharing of recurring facility charges for those carriers who subscribe to voice grade transport at less than the DS1 level will be based on actual facilities installed. D. Nothing herein shall prevent Carrier from utilizing existing collocation facilities, purchased from the interexchange tariffs, for local interconnection; provided, however, that if Carrier orders new facilities for interconnection or rearranges any facilities presently used for its alternate access business in order to use such facilities for local interconnection hereunder and a BellSouth charge is applicable thereto, BellSouth shall only charge Carrier the lower of the interstate or intrastate tariffed rate or promotional rate. E. When the parties provide an access service connection between an interexchange carrier (“IXC”) and each other, each party will provide its own access services to the IXC. Each party will ▇▇▇▇ its own access services rates to the IXC. F. The ordering and provision of all services purchased from BellSouth by Carrier shall be as set forth in the BellSouth Telecommunications Wireless Customer Guide as that guide is amended by BellSouth from time to time during the term of this Agreement.

There are three appropriate methods of interconnecting facilities: (1) interconnection via purchase of facilities from either party by the other party; (2) physical collocation; and (3) virtual collocation where physical collocation is not practical for technical reasons or because of space limitations. Type 1, Type 2A and Type 2B and other interconnection arrangements described in BellSouth’s General Subscriber Services Tariff, Section A35, or, in the case of North Carolina, in the North Carolina Connection and Traffic Interchange Agreement effective June 30, 1994, as amended, may be purchased pursuant to this Agreement subjectprovided, however, to that such interconnection arrangements shall be provided at the sharing of recurring charges for certain transport facilities for Local Traffic as more fully rates, terms and conditions set forth in this sectionAgreement. Rates and charges for both virtual and physical collocation may be provided in a separate collocation agreement. Rates for virtual collocation will be based on BellSouth's Interstate Access Services Tariff, FCC #1, Section 20 and/or BellSouth's Intrastate Access Services Tariff, Section E20. Rates for physical collocation will be negotiated on an individual case basis. B. The parties will accept and provide any of the preceding methods of interconnection. Connectivity Reciprocal connectivity shall be established to at least one BellSouth access tandem within every LATA Carrier desires to serve, or Carrier may elect to interconnect directly at an end office for interconnection to end users served by that end office. In Such interconnecting facilities shall conform, at a minimum, to the event a party interconnects via the purchase telecommunications industry standard of facilities and/or services from the other partyDS-1 pursuant to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇. ▇▇-▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇. Signal transfer point, the appropriate intrastate tariff, as amended from time to time will apply. The parties acknowledge, however, that with respect to such facilities that run from BellSouth’s tandem or end office to Carrier’s first switch or terminal as the case may be, in the same LATA as the interconnected BellSouth tandem or end office, the applicable recurring charges for such facilities will be shared by the parties with BellSouth responsible for 85% of the facility charges and Carrier responsible for 15% of the facility charges, except that BellSouth shall only share the cost of the first twenty-five (25) miles of interoffice facilities, with Carrier responsible for all other interoffice facility charges. Sharing of recurring facilitiy charges shall apply to activated trunks only. Carrier shall be and remain solely responsible for all installation and other nonrecurring charges for such facilities.Signaling System C. The decision to activate facilities for which charges are shared will be made by the party responsible for the majority of the recurring charges for the facility. This decision will be based on traffic information from studies performed by BellSouth or, if BellSouth has not or will not perform such studies, by traffic information provided by Carrier. Recurring facility charges sharing will be at the DS1 level for transport facilities at the DS1 or higher level. If trunks have been activated in quantities exceeding the capacity of a full DS1, but not sufficient to fully occupy an additional DS1, sharing will be rounded up to the next DS1. Sharing of recurring facility charges for those carriers who subscribe to voice grade transport at less than the DS1 level will be based on actual facilities installed. D. Nothing herein shall prevent Carrier from utilizing existing collocation facilities, purchased from the interexchange tariffs, for local interconnection; provided, however, that if Carrier orders new facilities for interconnection or rearranges any facilities presently used for its alternate access business in order to use such facilities for local interconnection hereunder and a BellSouth charge is applicable thereto, BellSouth shall only charge Carrier the lower of the interstate or intrastate tariffed rate or promotional rate. D. The parties will establish trunk groups from the interconnecting facilities of subsection (A) of this section. Each party will use its best efforts to construct its network, including the interconnecting facilities, to achieve optimum cost effectiveness and network efficiency. Unless otherwise agreed, BellSouth will provide or bear the cost of all trunk groups for the delivery of Local Traffic from BellSouth to Carrier’s Mobile Telephone Switching Offices within BellSouth’s service territory, and Carrier will provide or bear the cost of all trunk groups for the delivery of traffic from Carrier to each BellSouth access tandem and end office at which the parties interconnect. Carrier will also provide or bear the cost of trunk groups carrying intermediary (transit) traffic. E. The parties will use an auditable PLU factor as a method for determining whether traffic is Local or Non-Local. The PLU factor will be used for traffic delivered by either party for termination on the other party’s network. F. When the parties provide an access service connection between an interexchange carrier Interexchange Carrier (“IXC”) and each other, each party will provide its own access services to the IXC. Each If access charges are billed, each party will ▇▇▇▇ its own access services service rates to the IXC. F. G. The ordering and provision of all services purchased from BellSouth by Carrier shall be as set forth in the BellSouth Telecommunications Wireless Customer Guide as that guide is amended by BellSouth from time to time during the term of this Agreement.

The ordering and provision of all services purchased from BellSouth by Carrier shall be as set forth in the BellSouth Telecommunications Wireless Customer Guide as that guide is amended by BellSouth from time to time during the term of this Agreement.

Methods of Interconnection. A. There are three appropriate methods of interconnecting facilities: (1) interconnection via purchase of facilities from either party by the other party; (2) physical collocation; and (3) virtual collocation where physical collocation is not practical for technical reasons or because of space limitations; (2) physical collocation; and (3) interconnection via purchase of facilities from either party by the other party. Type 1, Type 2A and Type 2B and other interconnection arrangements described in BellSouth’s General Subscriber Services Tariff, Section A35, or, in the case of North Carolina, in the North Carolina Connection and Traffic Interchange Agreement effective June 30, 1994, as amended, may be purchased pursuant to this Agreement subject, however, to the sharing of recurring charges for certain transport facilities for Local Traffic as more fully set forth in this section. B. The parties will accept and provide any of the preceding methods of interconnection. Connectivity shall be established to at least one BellSouth access tandem within every LATA Carrier desires to serve, or Carrier may elect to interconnect directly at an end office. In the event a party interconnects via the purchase of facilities and/or services from the other party, the appropriate intrastate tariff, as amended from time to time will apply. The parties acknowledge, however, that with respect to such facilities that run from BellSouth’s tandem or end office to Carrier’s first switch or terminal as the case may be, in the same LATA as the interconnected BellSouth tandem or end office, the applicable recurring charges for such facilities will be shared by the parties with BellSouth responsible for 85% of the facility charges and Carrier responsible for 15% of the facility charges, except that BellSouth shall only share the cost of the first twenty-five (25) miles of interoffice facilities, with Carrier responsible for all other interoffice facility charges. Sharing of recurring facilitiy charges shall apply to activated trunks only. Carrier shall be and remain solely responsible for all installation and other nonrecurring charges for such facilities. C. The parties agree that interconnection facility sizing will be based on industry/national guidelines for transmission standards and traffic blocking criteria. The parties agree to provide at least a P.01 level of service and to work cooperatively in the placement and/or removal of interconnection facilities. The decision to activate facilities for which charges are shared will be made by the party responsible for the majority of the recurring charges for the facility. This decision will be based on traffic information from studies performed by BellSouth or, if BellSouth has not or will not perform such studies, by traffic information provided by Carrier. Recurring facility charges sharing will be at the DS1 level for transport facilities at the DS1 or higher level. If trunks have been activated in quantities exceeding the capacity of a full DS1, but not sufficient to fully occupy an additional DS1, sharing will be rounded up to the next DS1. Sharing of recurring facility charges for those carriers who subscribe to voice grade transport at less than the DS1 level will be based on actual facilities installed. D. Nothing herein shall prevent Carrier from utilizing existing collocation facilities, purchased from the interexchange tariffs, for local interconnection; provided, however, that if Carrier orders new facilities for interconnection or rearranges any facilities presently used for its alternate access business in order to use such facilities for local interconnection hereunder and a BellSouth charge is applicable thereto, BellSouth shall only charge Carrier the lower of the interstate or intrastate tariffed rate or promotional rate.
