Trunking Architecture Clause Samples

The Trunking Architecture clause defines the framework and technical specifications for how multiple communication channels are combined and managed within a network. It typically outlines the requirements for integrating various voice, data, or multimedia streams into a single, efficient transmission system, often using shared infrastructure to optimize resource use. By establishing clear guidelines for trunking, this clause ensures interoperability, scalability, and efficient use of network resources, ultimately solving the problem of managing high volumes of simultaneous communications in a cost-effective manner.
Trunking Architecture. The Originating Party must establish direct trunking to a Receiving Party’s End Office (which may have a Tandem-routed overflow) by self- provisioning, purchasing transport rated as unbundled dedicated interoffice transport from the Receiving Party, or purchasing from a third party if the Local and Compensable Internet Traffic destined for that End Office exceeds the CCS busy hour equivalent of two (2) DS1s for any three

Trunking Architecture. The Originating Party must establish direct trunking to a Receiving Party’s End Office (which may have a Tandem-routed overflow) by self-provisioning, purchasing transport rated as unbundled dedicated interoffice transport from the Receiving Party, or purchasing from a third party if the Local and Compensable Internet Traffic destined for that End Office exceeds the CCS busy hour equivalent of two (2) DS1s for any three (3) months during any six (6) month period. For purposes of this paragraph, BA shall satisfy its end office trunking obligations by handing off traffic to a Level 3 IP. Should Level 3 fail to comply with this end office trunking requirement, then the Intercarrier Compensation rate to be paid by Level 3 shall be determined as follows: (a) for direct (non-switched) end office trunks delivered to BA at the BA Tandem wire center that is subtended by the BA End Office serving the Customer location receiving the call, Level 3 shall pay the applicable Intercarrier Compensation rate then in effect pursuant to Section 5.7.3, plus $.0007 per minute of use; and (b) for Tandem-switched trunks delivered to BA at the BA Tandem Wire Center that is subtended by the relevant BA end office, Level 3 shall pay the Tandem Office Reciprocal Call Termination Rate as set forth in Exhibit A hereto; provided, however, that in the event Level 3 has properly forecasted and ordered the required trunking from BA and BA has been unable to provision the ordered trunking, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ shall not be obligated to pay the higher Tandem Office rate until BA is able to provide the requested trunking.

Trunking Architecture. (a) If an Originating Party’s Reciprocal Compensation Traffic and ISP-bound Traffic destined for a particular end office of the Receiving Party exceeds the equivalent of one DS1 for any three (3) months during any six (6) month period, the Originating Party must establish direct trunking to that end office of the Receiving Party (which shall have a Tandem-routed overflow for two-way trunks) by: (i) self- provisioning, (ii) purchasing from the Receiving Party transport (i.e., trunking and facilities, including any necessary multiplexing) from the relevant IP of the Originating Party to the Receiving Party’s end office at rates set forth in the Receiving Party’s applicable special access tariff, or (iii) purchasing transport from a third party. To the extent such trunking is provided pursuant to option (ii) in the immediately preceding sentence, such transport shall be rated according to the Receiving Party’s applicable intrastate or interstate special access tariff by applying the Percent Interstate Usage (“PIU”) and Percent Local Usage (“PLU”) factors provided by the Originating Party. For purposes of such application, the portion of use attributable to Reciprocal Compensation Traffic shall be rated at intrastate special access tariff rates, and the portion attributable to ISP-bound Traffic shall be rated at interstate special access tariff rates. For purposes of this Section 1.0.2, Verizon shall satisfy its end office trunking obligations by handing off traffic to a geographically relevant Level 3 IP established pursuant to Sections 1.0.1.1 and

  • Network Interconnection Architecture Each Party will plan, design, construct and maintain the facilities within their respective systems as are necessary and proper for the provision of traffic covered by this Agreement. These facilities include but are not limited to, a sufficient number of trunks to the point of interconnection with the tandem company, and sufficient interoffice and interexchange facilities and trunks between its own central offices to adequately handle traffic between all central offices within the service areas at a P.01 grade of service or better. The provisioning and engineering of such services and facilities will comply with generally accepted industry methods and practices, and will observe the rules and regulations of the lawfully established tariffs applicable to the services provided.

  • Architecture The Private Improvements shall have architectural features, detailing, and design elements in accordance with the Project Schematic Drawings. All accessory screening walls or fences, if necessary, shall use similar primary material, color, and detailing as on the Private Improvements.

  • Access Toll Connecting Trunk Group Architecture 9.2.1 If WCS chooses to subtend a Verizon access Tandem, WCS’s NPA/NXX must be assigned by WCS to subtend the same Verizon access Tandem that a Verizon NPA/NXX serving the same Rate Center Area subtends as identified in the LERG. 9.2.2 WCS shall establish Access Toll Connecting Trunks pursuant to applicable access Tariffs by which it will provide Switched Exchange Access Services to Interexchange Carriers to enable such Interexchange Carriers to originate and terminate traffic to and from WCS’s Customers. 9.2.3 The Access Toll Connecting Trunks shall be two-way trunks. Such trunks shall connect the End Office WCS 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 WCS’s Customers to connect to or be connected to the interexchange trunks of any Interexchange Carrier which is connected to a Verizon access Tandem.

  • Configuration Management The Contractor shall maintain a configuration management program, which shall provide for the administrative and functional systems necessary for configuration identification, control, status accounting and reporting, to ensure configuration identity with the UCEU and associated cables produced by the Contractor. The Contractor shall maintain a Contractor approved Configuration Management Plan that complies with ANSI/EIA-649 2011. Notwithstanding ANSI/EIA-649 2011, the Contractor’s configuration management program shall comply with the VLS Configuration Management Plans, TL130-AD-PLN-010-VLS, and shall comply with the following:

  • Scope of Interconnection Service 1.3.1 The NYISO will provide Energy Resource Interconnection Service and Capacity Resource Interconnection Service to Interconnection Customer at the Point of Interconnection. 1.3.2 This Agreement does not constitute an agreement to purchase or deliver the Interconnection Customer’s power. The purchase or delivery of power and other services that the Interconnection Customer may require will be covered under separate agreements, if any, or applicable provisions of NYISO’s or Connecting Transmission Owner’s tariffs. The Interconnection Customer will be responsible for separately making all necessary arrangements (including scheduling) for delivery of electricity in accordance with the applicable provisions of the ISO OATT and Connecting Transmission Owner’s tariff. The execution of this Agreement does not constitute a request for, nor agreement to, provide Energy, any Ancillary Services or Installed Capacity under the NYISO Services Tariff or any Connecting Transmission Owner’s tariff. If Interconnection Customer wishes to supply or purchase Energy, Installed Capacity or Ancillary Services, then Interconnection Customer will make application to do so in accordance with the NYISO Services Tariff or Connecting Transmission Owner’s tariff.
