Tandem Switching. 4.3.1 The Tandem Switching capability Network Element is defined as: (i) trunk- connect facilities, which include, but are not limited to, the connection between trunk termination at a cross connect panel and switch trunk card; (ii) the basic switch trunk function of connecting trunks to trunks; and (iii) the functions that are centralized in the Tandem Switches (as distinguished from separate end office switches), including but not limited to call recording, the routing of calls to operator services and signaling conversion features.
Tandem Switching. 4.5.1 The Tandem Switching capability Network Element is defined as:
Tandem Switching. The unbundled Tandem Switching Element includes trunk-connect facilities, the basic switching function of connecting trunks to trunks, and the functions that are centralized in Tandem Switches. Unbundled Tandem switching creates a temporary transmission path between interoffice trunks that are interconnected at a Verizon access Tandem for the purpose of routing a call or calls.
Tandem Switching. The trunk-connect facilities on a Verizon circuit switch that functions as a tandem switch, plus the functions that are centralized in that switch, including the basic switching function of connecting trunks to trunks, unbundled from and not contiguous with loops and transmission facilities. Tandem Switching creates a temporary transmission path between interoffice trunks that are interconnected at a Verizon tandem switch for the purpose of routing a call. A tandem switch does not provide basic functions such as dial tone service.
Tandem Switching compensation for the use of Tandem Switching consists of a call set-up rate element (per message) where applicable and a duration (per minute) rate element.
Tandem Switching compensation for the use of Tandem Switching consists of a duration charge (per minute) rate element.
Tandem Switching. 9.1 Definition Tandem Switching is the function that establishes a communications path between two switching offices through a third switching office (the Tandem switch).
Tandem Switching. 4. DTI will charge the non-affiliated IXC for the following Switched Access elements on a meet-point basis:
Tandem Switching. 47.1. Sprint will offer unbundled Tandem Switching in conjunction with unbundled Local Circuit Switching only where the Commission or FCC determines that unbundled Local Circuit Switching is required to be provided. Where Sprint is no longer required to provide Tandem Switching CLEC will agree to a time line to transition from unbundled Tandem Switching within thirty (30) days of the Commission or FCC finding.
Tandem Switching. The Tandem Switching rate element is charged on every minute of use that is switched by Sprint’s Tandem Switch.
