CCS definition

CCS means a method of exchanging call set up and network control data over a digital signaling network fully separate from the Public Switched Network that carries the actual call. Signaling System 7 ("SS7") is currently the preferred CCS method. "Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act" or "CALEA" refers to the duties and obligations of Carriers to assist law enforcement agencies by intercepting communications and records, and installing pen registers and trap and trace devices. "Competitive Local Exchange Carrier" or "CLEC" refers to a Party that has submitted a request, pursuant to this Agreement, to obtain Interconnection, access to Unbundled Network Elements, ancillary services, or resale of Telecommunications Services. CLEC is an entity authorized to provide local Exchange Service that does not otherwise qualify as an Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier (ILEC).
CCS means one hundred (100) call seconds.
CCS means a method of digitally transmitting call set-up and network control data over a special signaling network fully separate from the public voice switched network elements that carry the actual call.

Examples of CCS in a sentence

  • CCS carries addressed signaling messages for individual trunk circuits and/or database-related services between Signaling Points in the CCS network using SS7 signaling protocol.

  • CLASS is based on the availability of Common Channel Signaling (CCS).

  • If CCS interconnection is established through a Third Party, the rates, terms, and conditions of the Parties’ respective tariffs will apply.

  • Each Party may establish CCS interconnections either directly and/or through a Third Party.

  • Common Channel Signaling (CCS): A high-speed, specialized, packet-switched communications network that is separate (out-of-band) from the public packet-switched and message networks.


More Definitions of CCS

CCS means a high-speed specialized packet-switched communications network that is separate (out-of-band) from the public packet-switched and message networks. CCS carries addressed signaling messages for individual trunk circuits and/or database-related services between Signaling Points in the CCS network using SS7 signaling protocol.
CCS or “Common Channel Signaling” means a method of transmitting call set-up and network control data over a digital signaling network separate from the public switched telphone network facilities that carry the actual voice or data content of the call. “SS7” means the common channel out of band signaling protocol developed by the Consultative Committee for International Telephone and Telegraph (“CCITT”) and the American National Standards Institute (“ANSI”). BA and NorthPoint currently utilize this out-of-band signaling protocol. “CCSAC” or “CCSAS” means the Common Channel Signaling access connection or access service, respectively, which connects one Party’s signaling point of Interconnection (“SPOI”) to the other Party’s Signaling Transfer Point for the exchange of SS7 messages.
CCS means Chartwell Community Services, Inc., a Texas corporation.
CCS means Common Channel Signaling, which is the signaling system developed for use between switching systems with stored-program control, in which all of the signaling information for one or more Trunk Groups is transmitted over a dedicated high-speed data link rather than on a per-Trunk basis and, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, the CCS used by the Parties shall be Signaling System 7 (“SS7”).
CCS. (Common Channel Signaling) means a method of digitally transmitting call set-up and network control data over a digital signaling network fully separate from the public switched telephone network that carries the actual call.
