I. INTRODUCTION 1. On October 18, 2002, AT&T filed a petition for declaratory ruling that its “phone-to- phone” Internet protocol (IP) telephony services are exempt from the access charges applicable to circuit-switched interexchange calls.1 The service at issue in AT&T’s petition consists of an interexchange call that is initiated in the same manner as traditional interexchange calls – by an end user who dials 1 + the called number from a regular telephone.2 When the call reaches AT&T’s network, AT&T converts it from its existing format into an IP format and transports it over AT&T’s Internet backbone.3 AT&T then converts the call back from the IP format and delivers it to the called party through local exchange carrier (LEC) local business lines.4 We clarify that, under the current rules, the service that AT&T describes is a telecommunications service upon which interstate access charges may be assessed. We emphasize that our decision is limited to the type of service described by AT&T in this proceeding, i.e., an interexchange service that: (1) uses ordinary customer premises equipment (CPE) with no enhanced functionality; (2) originates and terminates on the public switched telephone network (PSTN); and (3) undergoes no net protocol conversion and provides no enhanced functionality to end 1 Petition for Declaratory Ruling that AT&T’s Phone-to-Phone IP Telephony Services are Exempt from Access Charges (filed Oct.

  • 50-30-05 a Guide to Network Access and Pricing Options
    50-30-05 A Guide to Network Access and Pricing Previous screen Options Nathan J. Muller Payoff When shopping for services, not only do communications managers have more network access options from which to choose, but more attractive pricing plans as well. Introduction The rate at which net network services are being introduced and price revisions are issued is due as much to the easing of regulatory constraints as to advances in communications technology. Many of the new ways of accessing services can improve networking efficiency. New pricing plans can provide services more economically to users. For the purposes of this article, the different types of access available to users are categorized as basic access, consolidated access, alternate access, and special access. Basic Access Basic access entails the establishment of a physical connection from the customer premises to a local Central Office port. The connection can be dialed up as needed or provided to the user with a dedicated facility, such as a T1 line. Dial-Up Connections In the case of a dial-up connection, once an idle port is seized, the user has access to a variety of services and associated call-handling features provided by the Local Exchange Carrier within its Local Access and Transport Area. If the voice or data call is destined for a location outside the local access and transport area (LATA), the local exchange carrier (LEC) hands it off to a designated interexchange carrier's Point Of Presence, where the call is transported to the local exchange carrier (LEC) at the destination Local Access and Transport Area.

    This document is scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on 11/27/2020 and available online at 6712-01 federalregister.gov/d/2020-24624, and on govinfo.gov FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION 47 CFR Part 51 [WC Docket No. 18-156; FCC 20-143; FR ID 17154] 8YY Charge Reform AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission. ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: In this document, the Commission takes definitive steps to address the arbitrage and fraud that have increasingly undermined the system of intercarrier compensation that currently underpins toll free calling. Those steps include transitioning 8YY end office originating charges to bill-and-keep over approximately three years and creating a single charge for 8YY tandem switching and transport services and capping it at a lower, uniform rate. The order caps rates for the database queries necessary to route toll free calls, reduces them to a national uniform rate over approximately three years, and limits such database query charges to one per call. Finally, the Commission allows carriers to use existing mechanisms to recover lost revenue. The measures will reduce the incentives for carriers to engage in 8YY access arbitrage and lower the costs of 8YY services overall. DATES: The amendments in this document shall be effective [INSERT DATE 30 DAYS AFTER DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER], except for §§ 51.907(i) through (k) (instruction 4), 51.909(l) through (o) (instruction 5), and 51.911(e) (instruction 6.b.), which are delayed. The FCC will publish a document in the Federal Register announcing the effective date for those sections. ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, 445 12th Street, SW, Washington, DC 20554.

We discuss the extent of and reasons for bypass, the impact that bypass may have on local telephone company revenues, and observations on some regulatory actions and proposals that address bypass. We conducted the review because of the concern that local telephone companies could lose billions of dollars if large-volume customers avoid or bypass local telephone company facilities. The report provides the Congress information that may be helpful in oversight and regulation of the nation’s telecommunications industry. We are sending copies of this report to the Director, Office of Management and Budget; the Chairman, Federal Communications Commission; and other interested parties. We will also make copies available to others upon request. Charles A. Bowsher Comptroller General of the United States Executive Summary Local telephone customers could face billions in rate increases if the Purpose local telephone companies lose their large-volume customers due to bypass. Bypass occurs when customers use available technologies, such as microwave and satellite transmission facilities, to avoid using certain local telephone company facilities.
