Physical Architecture. 59.2.1 Brightspeed's network architecture in any given local exchange area and/or LATA can vary markedly from another local exchange area/LATA. Using one or more of the NIMs herein, the Parties will agree to a physical architecture plan for a specific LATA, or if appropriate based on other requirements in Section 59, Local Calling Area. The physical architecture plan, as described in the Local Interconnection POI Profile, will be discussed during joint implementation planning. CLEC and Brightspeed agree to Interconnect their networks through existing and/or new Interconnection Facilities between CLEC switch(es) and Brightspeed's End Office Switch(es) and/or Tandem Switch(es). The physical architecture plan will be in accordance with Forecasting and Planning requirements in Article IV. 59.2.2 Each Party is solely responsible for the facilities that carry OS/DA, 911 or Mass Calling for their respective End Users. Separate trunks must be utilized for connecting CLEC’s switch(es) to each of these services. 59.2.3 Trunk requirements for forecasting and servicing shall be based on an overall blocking objective of one percent (1%) during the average time-consistent busy hour, as defined by standard trunk traffic engineering principles. For the final trunk groups between a CLEC End Office and a Brightspeed End Offices, direct trunk groups are to be engineered with a blocking objective of one percent (1%). Trunks to access Tandems carrying Jointly Provided Switched Access Traffic and all other Tandem trunk groups are to be engineered with a blocking objective of one-half percent (0.5%).
