CLEC OUTAGE Clause Samples
The CLEC Outage clause defines the procedures and responsibilities related to service interruptions caused by a Competitive Local Exchange Carrier (CLEC). Typically, this clause outlines how outages are reported, the obligations of the CLEC to restore service, and any limitations on liability or remedies available to the affected parties. For example, it may specify notification timelines or the process for crediting customers for downtime. Its core function is to ensure clear communication and accountability during service disruptions, thereby minimizing confusion and setting expectations for both parties.
CLEC OUTAGE. For a problem limited to one CLEC (or a building with multiple CLECs), BellSouth has several options available for restoring service quickly. For those CLECs that have agreements with other CLECs, BellSouth can immediately start directing traffic to a provisional CLEC for completion. This alternative is dependent upon BellSouth having concurrence from the affected CLECs. Whether or not the affected CLECs have requested a traffic transfer to another CLEC will not impact BellSouth's resolve to re-establish traffic to the original destination as quickly as possible.
CLEC OUTAGE. 38.7.11.1 For a problem limited to one CLEC (or a building with multiple CLECs), AT&T TENNESSEE has several options available for restoring service quickly. For those CLECs that have agreements with other CLECs, AT&T TENNESSEE can immediately start directing traffic to a provisional CLEC for completion. This alternative is dependent upon AT&T TENNESSEE having concurrence from the affected CLECs.
38.7.11.2 Whether or not the affected CLECs have requested a traffic transfer to another CLEC will not impact AT&T TENNESSEE’s resolve to re-establish traffic to the original destination as quickly as possible. 38.7.12 AT&T TENNESSEE Outage:
38.7.12.1 Because AT&T TENNESSEE’s equipment has varying degrees of impact on the service provided to the CLECs, restoring service from damaged AT&T TENNESSEE equipment is different. The outage will probably impact a number of Carriers simultaneously. However, the ECC will be able to initiate immediate actions to correct the problem.
38.7.12.2 A disaster involving any of AT&T TENNESSEE’s equipment locations could impact the CLECs, some more than others. A disaster at a Central Office (CO) would only impact the delivery of traffic to and from that one location, but the incident could affect many Carriers. If the CO is a Serving Wire Center (SWC), then traffic from the entire area to those Carriers served from that switch would also be impacted. If the switch functions as an Access Tandem, or there is a tandem in the building, traffic from every CO to every CLEC could be interrupted. A disaster that destroys a facility hub could disrupt various traffic flows, even though the switching equipment may be unaffected.
38.7.12.3 The NMC would be the first group to observe a problem involving AT&T TENNESSEE’s equipment. Shortly after a disaster, the NMC will begin applying controls and finding re-routes for the completion of as much traffic as possible. These reroutes may involve delivering traffic to alternate Carriers upon receiving approval from the CLECs involved. In some cases, changes in translations will be required. If the outage is caused by the destruction of equipment, then the ECC will assume control of the restoration.
CLEC OUTAGE. 37.7.11.1 For a problem limited to one CLEC (or a building with multiple CLECs), AT&T TENNESSEE has several options available for restoring service quickly. For those CLECs that have agreements with other CLECs, AT&T TENNESSEE can immediately start directing traffic to a provisional CLEC for completion. This alternative is dependent upon AT&T TENNESSEE having concurrence from the affected CLECs.
37.7.11.2 Whether or not the affected CLECs have requested a traffic transfer to another CLEC will not impact AT&T TENNESSEE’s resolve to re-establish traffic to the original destination as quickly as possible.
