Common Transport. Common (Shared) Transport is defined as transmission facilities shared by more than one (1) carrier, including BellSouth, between end office switches, between end office switches and tandem switches, and between tandem switches, in BellSouth’s network. Common Transport includes the pricing elements of Common Transport per Mile and Common Transport Facilities Termination as set forth in Exhibit A.
Common Transport. 9.1 Definition Common transport consists of interoffice transmission paths, between BA Network Elements (illustrated in Figure 1), shared by carriers. Common transport consists of BA inter-office transport facilities and is distinct and separate from local switching. Common transport routes the call between two BA switches using the existing route(s) that are used by the BA network for BA’s end users. Figure 1

Common Transport. 9.1 Definition Common Transport is an interoffice transmission path between BellSouth Network Elements (illustrated in Figure 2) shared by carriers. Where BellSouth Network Elements are connected by intra-office wiring, such wiring is provided as a part of the Network Elements and is not Common Transport. BellSouth shall offer Common Transport as of the effective date of the agreement, at DS0, DS1, DS3, STS-1 or higher transmission bit rate circuits. Common Transport consists of BellSouth inter-office transport facilities and is distinct and separate from local switching.

Common Transport. 8.1.1. Common Transport provides a local interoffice transmission path between the Sprint tandem switch and a Sprint or CLEC end office switch, or between a host in one rate center and a remote in another rate center. Common transport is shared between multiple carriers and is required to be switched at the tandem.
Common Transport. 7.1. Definition: Common (i.e. shared) transport is a transmission facility shared by more than one carrier, including GTE, between end office switches, between end office switches and tandem switches, and between tandem switches, in GTE’s network. Common transport shall be provided in conjunction with, but priced separately from, Local Switching and/or Tandem Switching. GTE shall not be required to provide transport other than Dedicated transport between any GTE switch and an AT&T interconnection point or between any GTE serving wire center (as that term is used in Para. 29 of the Third Order on Reconsideration, CC Docket No. 96-98) serving an AT&T interconnection point and any GTE switch.
