Tandem Switching Local Traffic Sample Clauses

Tandem Switching Local Traffic. The Parties will provide tandem switching for Local Traffic between the Parties’ end offices subtending each other’s access tandem. The Parties agree to enter into their own traffic exchange arrangements with third-party providers either by contract or a presumed bill and keep relationship in the absence of a contractual arrangement. In the event that either Party originates traffic that transits the other Party’s network and terminates to a third-party provider with whom the originating Party does not have a traffic exchange agreement, then the originating Party agrees to indemnify the transiting Party for any termination charges rendered by a third-party provider for such traffic. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Party shall enter into an agreement with such third-party to act as an agent to collect termination charges on behalf of the third-party where no contractual traffic exchange arrangement exists between the Originating party and third- party provider.

Tandem Switching Local Traffic. The Parties will provide tandem switching for traffic between the Parties' end offices subtending each other's access tandem, as well as for traffic between either Party's end-users and any third party which is interconnected to the other Party's access tandems as follows: The originating Party will compensate the tandem Party for each minute of originated tandem switched traffic which terminates to third party (e.g., other CLEC, ILEC, or wireless service provider). The applicable rate for this charge is the tandem transiting charge identified in Appendix A. The originating Party also assumes responsibility for compensation to the company which terminates the call. Sprint shall exercise its best efforts to enter into a reciprocal Telephone Exchange Service traffic arrangement (either via written agreement or mutual Tariffs) with any CLEC, ILEC, CMRS carrier, or other LEC, to which it delivers Telephone Exchange Service traffic that transits CenturyTel’s Tandem Office. If Sprint does not enter into and provide notice to CenturyTel of the above referenced arrangement within 180 days of the initial traffic exchange with relevant third party carriers, then CenturyTel may, at its sole discretion, terminate Tandem Transit Service at anytime upon thirty (30) days written notice to Sprint. Sprint shall deliver each Tandem Transit Traffic call to CenturyTel with CCS and the appropriate Transactional Capabilities Application Part (“TCAP”) message to facilitate full interoperability of CLASS Features and billing functions.
