INTRODUCTION
Insertion of CRITICAL TRANSLATIONS can have an adverse effect on customer service. For those routing and
charging translations with the potential to effect large numbers of customers and/or a large number of calls,
EXTREME caution should be exercised. It is the responsibility of the local operations forces to develop a 'BACK
OUT STRATEGY' and determine if service activation should occur during 'OFF PEAK' hours. Local TXC and SCC
managers should evaluate the impact of translations on a case by case basis.
Check List
Contact your supervisor for assistance if you have any doubt as how to correctly answer the following
questions.
Do you understand the potential service affecting impact of the task you are being asked to perform?
What is the appropriate time of day to make and test the intended changes?
Do you have all of the necessary provisioning documentation and are they complete and accurate?
Do you have the appropriate translation verifications and a back out plan?
Have you, or when possible a co-worker, double checked your work before implementation?
Is this service dependent on other than switch translations (AIN, Facilties, etc.)?
If so, have you verified the status of the required database or facilities work?
Do you have a comprehensive test plan and know by whom, how and when the plan should be executed?
Do any Network conditions or activities currently exist that would preclude the performance of this activity (End office or
STP generic loads, Simplex equipment etc.)?
° If not, was the information from the call shared with me?
• Have I reviewed the procedure steps in the documentation, or have I laid out a step by step procedure of my
own?
° who to call
° when to call
• Did I validate my work using the appropriate translations verify message for my switch type (i.e., TRAVER,
TRACKER, VFY OFC, etc)?
9. Have I verified that I am in the right office; in the correct translator, view, or table; and positioned on the correct
entry for the task I am doing?
3. 0. GENERAL
Type 1 - Direct CMRS connection through a LEC end office using MF signaling or SS7 only for outgoing calls.
Type 2A - Direct CMRS connection with a LEC tandem office using MF or SS7 signaling.
Type 2B - Direct CMRS connection with a specific LEC end office using MF or SS7 signaling. The majority of our connec-
tions are incoming from the CMRS to the end office. Type 2B Land to CMRS (Mobile) is now tariffed in all 5 SWB region
states to facilitate tandem relief in place of additional Type 2A connections.
Type 2D - Direct CMRS connection with a LEC operator tandem used for operator assisted calls or directory service
The CMRS switched network interconnections are growing approximately 28% a year. In addition to the Cellular and
Paging customers, we are now receiving orders from the newly awarded PCS/Major Trading Area (MTA) licensed
customers. PCS customers will use the same interconnections as provided to Paging and Cellular carriers.
interconnection order:
-The LEC must provide unbundling of the network where technically feasible.
Telecommunications networks.
-Physical Collocation
-Access to OSS systems for the purpose of pre-ordering, ordering, provisioning, billing,
-Access minute of use proxy rates were set if a cost study is not available.
-Transport and switching rates are the elements to be charged for switch
access with a different rate for the end office and the tandem.
Type 2A -
These are trunks between the CMRS network and the Access Tandem. This trunk group
is capable of routing intraLATA toll and local traffic to all end offices served by the
Access Tandem. With the addition of software (described in section 6), Southwestern
Bell will provide this trunk group with either MF or SS7 signaling with either one -way
or 2-way operation. These trunk groups are engineered as direct final with no alternate
routing. InterLATA traffic may be combined onto the Type 2A trunk group.
Equal Access -
These are trunks between the CMRS network and the Access Tandem. This trunk group routes InterLATA traffic only.
Southwestern Bell will provide this trunk group with either MF or SS7 signaling with either one -way or 2-way operation.
These trunk groups are engineered as either direct or alternate final with no alternate routing. The SS7 Cell trunk group
will support 800 query traffic and requires end office to tandem Feature Group D signaling. The Feature Group D protocol
must be in the standard OZZ/XXXX format where the OZZ tells the access tandem that translation of the XXXX is neces-
sary to identify the Interexchange Carrier and it's associated trunk group. The XXXX is the Carrier Identification Code
(CIC). The Type 2A and Equal Access groups can be combined using the Cell trunk type (MF) or the Cell option (SS7)
and is the preferred interconnection arrangement.
These are dedicated CMRS one-way trunks to the TOPS operator tandem. End office to tandem Feature Group D protocol,
and MF signaling is required. If the CMRS carrier requires only Directory Assistance, then MF signaling with CAMA ANI
is required.
These are tandem trunks to the CMRS network to transport Landline calls to the wireless end user. This service requires
a dedicated NXX and a one-way MF or SS7 trunk group.
This is a one-way trunk group from the CMRS network to either the 911 SWBT tandem or directly to the PSAP. This trunk
group is required because we plan to eliminate the Miscellaneous/ Junk trunk group type of access interconnection. This
dedicated trunk group can be provisioned with either MF or SS7 signaling.
This is a direct trunk group from the CMRS to the SWBT 911 Tandem. This trunk group type requires the CMRS provider
to provide a 10 digit ANI (for operator call back) and an additional pseudo ANI to define the location. SS7 signaling is also
required.
Type 1 -
This interconnection is for CMRS trunks to the SWBT end office and transports intraLATA toll and local traffic. This trunk
group requires MF signaling if it is two-way. SS7 signaling can be provided if the interconnection is one-way out to the
CMRS network. The SS7 Type 1 one-way out service is called 'Type 1 Outbound with SS7'.
Type 2B -
This one-way interconnection is from the CMRS network to the end office. This trunk group may be designed as a direct
final trunk group or it may be designed to overflow to a Type 2A trunk group when all of the 2B circuits are busy. Overflow
is controlled by the CMRS provider. The calling scope associated with Type 2B interconnection is limited to subscribers
served out of the end office and, in the case of a host office, any remote switches associated with that end office. Calls
to numbers that have ported out of the end office will also be permitted. Calls to Operator Services, access to Interex-
change Carriers, Service Access Codes (800) or Emergency Services (911) are not permitted. This interconnection
accommodates either MF or SS7 signaling.
The majority of our Type 2B connections are incoming from the CMRS to the end office. The Type 2B Land to CMRS
trunk group is now tariffed in all 5 SWB region states and is being promoted as a means of tandem relief by limiting the
addition of Type 2A tandem ports. The trunk group must be built as outgoing only and will carry traffic terminating to the
CMRS codes local to that end office. The routing will include overflow to the access tandem to the Type 2A when both
the end office and CMRS subtend the access tandem.
Signaling System 7-
Signaling System Number 7 (SS7) is a set of standardized signaling protocol that has been designed to provide out-of-
band signaling capabilities for digital communication networks. Besides the capabilities for handling Plain Old Telephone
Service (POTs) calls, it also has the capabilities to support advanced services such as calling number identification and
personal communications services.
SWBT will offer both Integrated Service Digital Service User Part (ISUP) for call set up and delivery of message traffic
and Transaction Capability Application Part (TCAP) for database query/response. There are significant benefits for CMRS
carriers to utilize SS7 signaling:
• More efficient utilization of trunking resources between two interconnection networks by reducing call setup delay.
• Supports more extensive exchange of call control information between two interconnecting networks that are needed
for advanced features such as 800, CLASS, operator services, Intelligent Network services, Calling Number Identification,
and Flexible Billing Service.
Technical requirements for the ISUP signaling capability are described in the following Bellcore's specifications:
• GR-145-CORE • TR-NWT-000317.
• TR-NWT-000394 • TR-NWT-000246.
• TA-NWT-001434 • TR-TSV-000905.
SWBT will provide CMRS Carriers with SS7 interconnection access to the SWBT SS7 network so that ISDNUP and TCAP
signaling can be used to setup/release calls and/or launch and receive database queries over Type 2A/2B trunk and link
interconnection.
The following call types will be supported over Type 2A/2B trunks using ISUP signaling:
LANDLINE-to-CMRS
Outgoing calls from a SWBT tandem switch to a wireless carrier POT can be established to telephone numbers (DNs)
served by the carrier. These outgoing calls will be routed to the POT based on the NPA, NXX, or 1000s block of the called
DNs. The CMRS switch is responsible for completing calls to the wireless subscribers.
CMRS-to-LANDLINE
Incoming calls from a wireless carrier POT to a SWBT tandem switch can be established to valid local network office
codes (NXXs) accessible through the tandem switch
Intra-LATA destinations only. Calls to InterLATA destinations will be allowed over a common trunk group when Finance
has completed program changes to accommodate dual recordings at the access tandem for both the CMRS minutes of
use and the InterLATA Access record. The address signaling sequence for incoming calls through the tandem switches
to FG-D or FG-B ICs will be the sequence used for FG-D or FG-B switched access signaling. Services such as directory
assistance and operator service
(0- and 0+) are not available through Type 2A trunk with SS7 ISUP signaling.
Incoming calls from a wireless carrier POT to a SWBT end office is limited to Directory Numbers served by the end office
and, in the case of a host office, any remote switches associated with that end office. This maintains consistency with the
interconnection definitions as specified in Bellcore GR-145-CORE. (An exception to this rule is the case of a call to a
portable NXX that comes in unqueried. The end office will launch the LNP query and if necessary transit the call to the
recipient switch, if the number has ported off the donor switch.)
This section describes the ISUP message-flows to be used to setup and release calls over the Type 2A/2B trunks between
the CMRS and SWBT networks. Detailed specification of these ISUP messages can be found in Bellcore TA-
NWT-001434,TR-TSY-000317, and TR-NWT-000394 specifications.
• Initial Address Message (IAM): This message is sent in the forward direction to initiate a trunk call setup between two
interconnecting networks. It contains the identification of the Type-2A/2B trunk circuit selected, and other necessary call
handling information.
• Continuity Message (COT): This message is sent in the forward direction to indicate the status (success/failure) of the
Type-2A/2B trunk circuit selected for the call.
• Address Complete Message (ACM): This message is sent in the backward direction from a terminating end office when
the called party information is complete, and any continuity checks required in the connection are successful.
• Answer Message (ANM): This message is sent in the backward direction from a terminating end office to indicate that
the call has been answered.
• Release Message (REL): This message is sent in either direction to indicate that the Type-2A/2B trunk circuit used for
the call is being released.
• Release Complete Message (RLC): This message is sent in either direction as a response to an REL message. It tells
the switch to idle the Type-2A/2B trunk circuit for the next call.
• B-Link quad: For this interconnection arrangement, the SWBT SS7 network shall interface with a CMRS carrier network
via four B-Links interconnecting a SWBT' mated STP pair with a CMRS carrier's mated STP pair.
• A-Link pair: For this interconnection arrangement, the SWBT SS7 network shall interface with a CMRS Carrier's POT
switch using two A-Links interconnecting the switch to SWBT's mated STP pair.
These two interconnection arrangements will be able to support both Inter/IntraLATA call setup and release. SWBT will
handle all Intra-LATA traffic within its network. However, it will forward all interLATA traffic to the ICs preferred by the
CMRS carriers. The signaling method to be used for interLATA calls will depend of the type of network interconnections
available between SWBT and the ICs.
Multi-Frequency Signaling-Southwestern Bell will accommodate MF signaling if it is requested by the CMRS Carrier. As
noted in previous sections, some types of trunk groups will continue to use MF signaling.
FGD signaling on a TOPS COMFGD trunk takes place as follows - the Automatic Number Identification (ANI) is sent,
followed immediately by the called number stage. Important features of COMFGD signaling are:
Start Translation (ST) digits are not primed (i.e., STP, ST2P and ST3P are not used). Instead, the station class is identified
based on the ANI information digits, as specified in TOPS table OSSCAT.
ANI consists of two information digits (II) followed by 10 calling digits for ANI success calls. The resulting pattern is KP-
II-NPA-NXX-XXXX-ST.
The digit, 0, is included in the called number as a prefix to indicate that a call is operator assisted. Cellular Carriers forward
3/7/10 called digits and the resulting pattern is KP-0-411-ST and KP-0-555-1212-ST or KP-0-NPA-555-1212-ST (KP-0-
NPA-555-1212-ST is mandatory with
INPA). There is no wink response between the ANI stage and the called digit stage.
· FGD digit signaling ends with a wink; for calls that are answered and calls that go to an operator, the sending office
receives an off-hook after the wink.
The CMRS Carrier must insure that all 10 digits of the calling number are forwarded to insure correct billing records.
Additional documentation on the Type 2D Interface is available in Bellcore Documents GR-145-CORE, Section 2.7 and
TR-NWT-000690, Section 3.1.1.2 and supporting sections.
· Trunk Translation
· Code Activation
· AMA Recording
Trunk translations are dependent upon the type of interconnection, signaling, directionality, and AMA recording required
with the CMRS carrier.
At the access tandem we will utilize new software features that will define a new trunk type as Cellular. For the interim
we will continue to utilize a separate trunk group for CMRS access tandem routed Equal Access traffic. Area Wide Calling
Plan traffic will still require a separate trunk group and will require no recording at the access tandem..
The TOPS tandem will require dedicated trunking for the Directory Assistance with CAMA ANI signaling. Directory Assis-
tance with Call Completion requires a dedicated trunk group with Feature Group D signaling. Toll Assistance will utilize
'SP' (operator supervision capabilities) trunk translations.
The end office treats the Type 1 interconnection as a trunk with line treatment and the switch must provide ANI 7 screening
for Operator and InterLATA traffic if needed.
CMRS carriers require code activation to serve their subscribers within the market. However, there will no longer be any
charge for code activation per the FCC Interconnection Order (Dockets 96-98 and 95-185). Code activation for CMRS
will follow the same reservation and provisioning procedure as used for all code activation per the Interexchange Carrier
Compatibility Forum (ICCF) standards.
The FCC Interconnection order requires reciprocal compensation between the CMRS carrier and the Local Exchange
Company (LEC). Until recently Southwestern Bell had charged minutes of use access for traffic bound for the CMRS
network and only charged a facility channel termination for traffic from the CMRS network. With the FCC order we will no
longer apply these charges. Instead we will charge access minutes of use (MOU) for the inbound CMRS traffic and will
be required to pay access charges for traffic bound towards the CMRS network. Because of this requirement SWBT is
implementing software and associated switch translations to record MOU in both directions.
Traffic routed by the Tandem (Type 2A) will utilize new software and will record Cellular AMA records. At the end office
we will continue to use the 'Trunk with Line Treatment/ PX' translation to generate MOU recordings for the inbound CMRS
calls. The outbound traffic will be translated with AIN query trigger translation against the CMRS number to interrupt the
call processing and request the end office to generate an AMA record.
DACC-
CMRS Carriers will need to establish new switch translations in their MTSO(s) and establish FGD signaling over a Type
2D Interconnection from their MTSO(s) to TOPS. If a CMRS Carrier already subscribes to 'Home' SP DACC via FGC
trunks, these can be reused for FGD signaling by swinging the FGC trunks over to the new FGD service. All existing SP
DACC traffic as well as the new SP DACC traffic can be served over these same trunks. The CMRS Carrier must coordi-
nate this conversion with SWBT facilities personnel that support the serving TOPS switch to insure there is no downtime.
The new switch features now explicitly identify each CMRS Carrier with a Carrier Access Code (CAC). With the new NAS
features, the CAC is now transmitted from the switch to the gateway which allows branding on an individual carrier basis.
1. Through translations, the call arrives at a DA operator. The operator enters the name and city of the party the Cellular
subscriber wishes to reach.
2. The DA query is launched, and the subscriber is connected to the Interactive Voice System (IVS).
3. The subscriber accepts DACC from the IVS by depressing 1 during the DACC announcement. This is not required if
the Carrier selects the Auto-Complete option, i.e., automatically providing call completion. If auto-completion is selected,
the Carrier must insure that it routes only those calls intended for this service over the dedicated FGD trunk group to
TOPS as all calls arriving on this trunk group will be automatically completed.
DACC Sent Paid enables CMRS carrier customers utilization of DACC in the same manner as 'landline' customers.
(Alternately billed DACC calls are not part of this service and will continue to be handled as they are today). Some DA
calls will not be eligible for Call Completion, i.e., non-published numbers, enterprise numbers, 976 numbers, 700 and 900
numbers, etc. due to technical, regulatory, legal and/or company policy restraints. (This list is not all inclusive.)

In 1997, (subsequent to Issue 1 of this TSD), Technology Planning investigated the feasibility and priority of enhancing
the AIN DID Access Service (DAS) to add Type 1 CMRS telephone numbers to the AIN trigger translations. This function-
ality would allow Southwestern Bell to record Paging and other outbound Landline traffic and use these records as an
audit to determine the accuracy of the billing from the CMRS carriers. Results of this investigation were inconclusive, and
the development of this capability was not pursued.
In the 12-96 timeframe (issue 1 of this TSD), the Company reviewed the additions needed for an additional Busy Hour
35% recording requirement (Local Service Providers, CMRS, Local access with Independents). Software was loaded into
selected 1AESSs and some DMS 100's added disk space. Ongoing, additional registers and memory may be required
at the Type 1 serving end offices due to an increase in AMA recordings for audit purposes. Typical Capacity Monitoring/
Network Design criteria should be followed to insure the availability of recording equipment.
Currently, there are two known service restrictions associated with end offices:
1. DMS switches cannot complete calls from Access To Carrier (ATC) trunk groups to ATC trunk groups. This inhibits call
completion when a call is received via Type 2B interconnection (uses an ATC trunk) and the called number is remote call
forwarded to an interoffice number routed via another ATC trunk group. This scenario exists regardless of the signaling
protocol, MF versus SS7, and is common to other types of interconnection.
2. Due to translations complexities, Type 2B with SS7 interconnection will not be 'generally available' on the Ericsson
switch. Interconnection arrangements must be negotiated on a customer-specific, case-by-case, basis.
Southwestern Bell Telephone functionality that provides this capability is located in the TOPS switch and in the database/
gateway system. For CMRS DACC to be successful, Marketing has identified the following features that is provided in
the TOPS switch:
CMRS carriers must set up dedicated FGD trunks and establish translations to route the SP DACC calls over these trunks.
They must insure that the full 10-digit ANI is transmitted to TOPS.
• Link layer control functions: signaling unit alignment, error detection, error correction, initial alignment, signaling link
error monitoring, and flow control.
• Signaling network layer test: Signaling message handling, and signaling network management.
• Transport and routing of SS7 ISDNUP messages for call setup and release.
A subsequent "BETA" test will be conducted to test the ability of SWBT to: take an order for Type 2A with SS7 service,
provision the service, coordinate responsibilities, establish signaling link control designation, exchange point code infor-
mation, set up translation tables in STPs, exchange traffic information, coordinate link diversity management, receive
trouble reports, report to the customer, and issue bills. When measuring capability is developed, another Beta test will be
conducted to test the AMA capability.
Conversion of the Type 2A trunking to 'Cell' trunks will, at a minimum, require transmission continuity testing to turn up
the new trunk group number in the switch. Continuity testing will also be required for the establishment of other types of
new CMRS trunking (i.e. DA, DACC, 911, Toll and Assistance) as we eliminate the miscellaneous trunk groups.
Ordering ISUP/TCAP SS7 SS7 network access for out-of-band ISUP/TCAP signaling of calls over Type 2A/2B trunks will
be available in each state in SWBT's territory. The CMRS carrier will be required to participate in the SS7 interconnection
compatibility testing prior to the live service turn up.-
The SS7 network accesses that can be used for ISUP/TCAP signaling of calls over Type 2A/2B trunks include: A-link pair
for a signaling end point, or B-link quad for STP-to-STP interconnection. After the initial order, the CMRS carrier may
request additional links for the linkset, or modifications to the screening and routing tables.
CMRS carrier can order SS7 interconnection by contacting a SWBT marketing representative. The marketing represen-
tative will gather needed information from the
CMRS Carrier, coordinate service provisioning activities with CMRS ICSC, and communicate to the customer the service
configuration, time frame, and availability.
The Wireless Interconnection Form (WIF) order should include the following information from the customer:
- Point Codes
Normal lead time for trunk interconnection is approximately 60 days from the day the order is received provided that the
CMRS Carrier has completed interconnection compatibility testing and has been certified for the particular network
configuration.
The provisioning flow for Type 2A/2B with SS7 service is as follows:
• CMRS Carrier orders access to the SWBT network. This may include links to the local or regional STP and trunk groups
to SWBT tandem switch or end office.
• The Dallas Regional Sales staff and the Intelligent Network Technical Support group (INTS) meets with the customer
to get ordering information and establish service testing and acceptance criteria.
• Operations installs the SS7 Links and trunk groups to the customer's location.
• INTS conducts TR905 compatibility tests and or transmission continuity tests with the customer.
The following SWBT's organizations will be involved in the provisioning flow to established CMRS interconnection service
for the customer:
• ICSC
• Trunk Management
• TXC
• NSS
• CPC
• SNAC (CNOC)
• SOCC
• SCC/IECC
Trunk Management will be responsible for monitoring, servicing, and forecasting the trunk capacity requirements for all
types of CMRS interconnection.
Type 2A-
For LANDLINE-to-CMRS calls over Type 2A trunks using ISDNUP signaling, the SWBT tandem will record call code 119
(as appropriate) AMA records. Call code 064 will not be recorded unless the billing department requests a special study.
For CMRS-to-LANDLINE calls over Type 2A trunk using ISDNUP signaling, the SWBT tandem will record 066, 110, 141,
and 142 AMA records as the call type dictates.
Type 1-
CMRS-to-LANDLINE - generates a local measured rate AMA recording. This is the present methodology for recording
and billing access.
LANDLINE-to-CMRS - With the implementation of AIN - DAS enhancement for CMRS the end office will generate AMA
recordings for DID Access service. Local calls will generate a 067/074 call code. InterLATA will generate a 119 call code.
IntraLATA toll will generate a 006 call code.
Type 2B-
LANDLINE-TO-CMRS - standard originating AMA records will be generated based on the originating land line class of
service. No special cellular AMA will be generated on the type 2B Land to CMRS call.
CMRS-TO LANDLINE - utilizing either MF or SS7 signaling will generate a terminating FG D 119 call code. Note: Because
SWBT has not currently equipped end offices with the Cellular Interconnection AMA software, Call Code 065 as documen-
ted in Bellcore GR-1504 is not available.
AWCP-
LANDLINE-to-CMRS - local calls will generate 067/074 call codes. Note: the coin is not returned from pay stations. Toll
calls will generate a 006 call code at the end office.
DACC-
Bill information (from TOPS AMA recordings) will be returned to the CMRS Carrier for them to bill their customers for
usage. Information to be returned to the Carrier will include:
1. Calling Number
2. Called Number
3. Date
5. DACC Indicator
DN - Directory Number
EA - Equal Access
GS - Gateway Screening

network.
9FW911 - Defines the feature package for W911. The feature package number is 9F038.
Any state which currently is not providing LMS will be required to establish an LMS chart column with ANI 7 and an
associated LCC. Oklahoma and Kansas, due to their RCC tariff filing will require an intra office LMS band to be established.
Message billing index (MBI) 9 should be used to identify the intra office LMS band. however, Texas will require a new
chart column with MBI 9 for all local calls and ANI 7 for operator and interLATA calls. Missouri should duplicate their LMS
chart column and then modify the new chart column to provide ANI 7 for all operator assisted calls. Arkansas will require
a new chart column to be established for RCC. The following are the bands to be established for Arkansas:
The following translations should be used to established the trunk class code associated with the TYPE 6 trunk group:
WORD 1
Outpulsing = MF (001)
Supervision = 0011(E+M)
WORD 4
CPI = 21
The zone office will require at least one new rate and route pattern (RRP) and a route index pointing to the TG established
between the CMRS and the 1A zone office.
The DN subtranslator should be seized and initialized to RI 85 and then the range of DNs purchased by the RCC should
be translated with the RI pointing to the CMRS TG. If the RCC is assigned DNs in blocks of 1000 numbers, then the DN
head table should be translated with a route index (RI) pointing to the CMRS TG.
In other words, both the TG and the TCC will be translated the same as a direct IC TG. This TG should be associated
with a TLDI or rate center. In most cases, an additional TLDI or rate center will need to be built and dedicated to this
service. The additional TLDI or rate center may be copied from the existing TLDI or rate center used to allow IC traffic to
complete only subtending intraswitch codes.
In order to allow calls to ported out DNs to complete, all subtending codes in this rate center should have the possible
trigger indicator set to 1 in the RAC or TLDI. If this trunk group is assigned to your 'regular' rate center, the codes should
already have the possible trigger indicator set to 1.
This trunk group may have either MF or SS7 signaling and would normally be built as a type 10 trunk group.
A carrier common block should be established for carrier identification code (CIC) 698. This common block will be used
to allow CIC 698 to be associated with the CMRS incoming TG and will be used for billing purposes to identify the
terminating FGD recording as RCC usage. Therefore, care should be taken to insure any call dialed on a 10XXX
(XXX=698) basis is blocked and receives appropriate announcement treatment.
4.5.3. 1.5.3 Type 2B Two Way ( INC/OGT from/to the CMRS) Translations
The translations for TYPE 2B Two Way combine the incoming and outgoing trunk group for the CMRS. The trunk group
must be built as 2way Type 10 and maybe use MF or SS7 signaling. Refer to paragraph 1.3.2 for detail information on
the outgoing side of this trunk group and Refer to paragraph 1.5.1 for the incoming side of this same trunk group.
This trunk group is established with a RC:TG: message. This trunk group will not need to be marked as a dedicated E911
group or assigned an emergency call digit. The format for this recent change is in 231-318-334.
The 1216 entries will be a Type 17 in KP column 65-66 and the assigned ESCO number in KP columns 76-78.

When the CMRS is assigned a dedicated NXX, the NXX must be opened in all switches in the LATA. The dedicated NXX
should be routed to the existing end office trunk groups which route to the zone office providing the Type 1 trunk group.
The zone office will require an OFRT pointing to the trunk group established between the CMRS and the zone office.
Through service orders, the range of DNs assigned to the CMRS should be routed to the designated Type 1 trunk group
via OFRT.
The CMRS may also be assigned directory numbers (DNs) in blocks of 100 numbers. If less than a dedicated NXX is
assigned and the NXX code provided is not currently a working NXX in the zone office, the TOFCNAME entry must be
established. Through service orders, the range of DNs assigned to the CMRS should be routed to the designated Type
1 trunk group via OFRT.

The one-way outgoing trunk group should be established as an IT type trunk group with SS7 signaling. Land line originated

Standard CCS7 requirements should be met between the CMRS and SWBT networks before SS7 trunk groups are
deployed.
The CELL trunk group can handle the incoming interlata and intraLata traffic served by the Type 2A group. 800 query
traffic cannot be routed over the MF Cell Type 2A group.
The IT group options are BILLNO and CELL with refinements, for Type 2A SS7. (InterLata and 800 query traffic can also
be routed using the IT group but has the same AMA implications as the MF CELL trunk group type.)
Both the CELL trunk group and the IT trunk group can be provisioned as two way trunk groups. This will eliminate the
requirement for directional trunking that exists currently. (During the conversion process in 1996, trunk groups were
combined if the CMRS customer desired. Some directional arrangements may still exist, but two-way is preferred.)
NOTE:
(Previous instructions limited Type 2A Mobile to Land to intralata codes. A separate equal access trunk group
was required to handle calls bound for an interexchange carrier or an 800 query. This restriction is no longer
required with the use of CELL trunk group software; intralata local and toll, interlata/carrier access, and 800 query
[SS7 IT only] traffic can all be combined on the same Type 2A group.)
Table AMAOPTS has three new fields which control the call code records generated for Cellular Mobile Carriers (CMC).
To activate the call code 066 records the entry CMCTERM (Cellular Mobile Carrier Terminating) must be set ON. Tuple
CMCORIG (Cellular Mobile Carrier Originating) controls call code 064 and should be OFF. A third entry CMCICWK
(Cellular Mobile Carrier InterExchange Carrier Wink) controls the connect time recorded when an Equal Access Inter-
connection call is recorded. If set ON the connect time is recorded when the billing wink is passed from the IXC, instead
of the time the CMC trunk is seized. A CMC access record is not created unless a billing wink is received from the FGD
carrier. This field should now be set OFF, allowing interlata or carrier bound traffic to create the correct billing in the AMA
record and to generate a CC110 whether the call is answered or not.

Land to CMRS over a Type 2A arrangement requires dedicated NXX to the carrier. The DMS access tandem can route
the call to the CMRS, based on 3 or more digits in HNPACONT.HNPACODE and RTEREF, to the TYPE 2A outgoing IT
trunk group.
A unique office route (OFRT) is required that points to the Type 2A trunk group CLLI.
The CMRS NXX is designated as intraLata; therefore, no entry is required in the LATAXLA table as intraLata/intraState
is the default for digits not found.
Those tandems combined with Traffic Operator Services (TOPS) functionality, must insure that the incoming operator
(TOPS) trunk groups class of service screen allows completion of the CMRS NXX to the operator, as well as allowing the
operator to complete to the CMRS NXX.
Combined DMS 100/200, end office and tandem switches may require translations input for the CMRS NXX to the local
calling area screen (LCASCRCN), the measured service area name tables (MUMRTAB, MUMRMBI) and originating
STDPRTCTs accessed by subscriber lines.
InterLata calls bound for IXCs and 800 calls requiring database lookup can be routed to the AT on separate one-way
incoming Equal Access, e.g. FGD signaling, trunk group arrangement. These trunk groups can be either MF or ISUP
(SS7) and are translated as trunk group type IT in the DMS tandems. The AT will translate and route on the first 7- digits
received. These are the routing code (0ZZ) and the Carrier Identification Code (CIC).
CMRS 800 queries are done via the Equal Access trunk arrangements and will require FGD signaling in the form 0ZZ0110.
Similar translations are in place for independent LEC switches subtending an AT SSP on a contract basis. See TMP
92-10-001 800/8XX Portability for details.
Conversion of the Equal Access trunk groups to CELL functionality will generate the 066 and 110 call code records for
originating and 064 and 119 call code records for terminating access billing in the SWBT AT. Call Code 141 or 142 will
also be generated for 800 queried calls. The result is two records for each Equal Access or 800 call handled by the SWBT
AT for the CMRS provider.
The conversion of the Equal Access trunk groups will allow for combining both interLata and intraLata calls on one trunk
group between the AT and CMRS. This should only be done with consent of the CMRS provider, but is the preferred
method of interconnection.
Datafill requirements for Type 2A Equal Access are similar to previous work on the intraLata 2A trunk group. The IT trunk
group type has options BILLNO (10-digits) or billing number and CELL type 2A, for SS7 trunk groups. MF trunk groups
should be converted from IT to CELL type trunk groups and include a billing number. (NOTE: The CELL trunk group type
does not support 800 calls from the CMRS to E800 SSP, such calls should be handled via SS7 trunk signaling only.)

An ATC type trunk group, either MF or SS7 and assigned a unique STDPRT, is required for incoming calls on the Type
2B arrangement. The STDPRTCT allows calls to the EO NXX codes only (both Host and remote), all other digits are
sent to D VACT for treatment. (The CMRS may use a Type 2A arrangement for overflow CMRS to Land traffic, if both the
EO and CMRS are connected to the AT.) The ATC trunk group is associated with the pseudo CIC 0698, used for all CMRS
2B incoming trunk groups. CIC 0698 requires standard translation datafill in tables OCCNAME and OCCINFO before use
on a Type 2B trunk group.
Legal and regulatory have issued guidelines for type 2B incoming trunk groups and LNP interactions, such that; SWBT
will allow unqueried calls to ported numbers routed over Type 2B to be properly routed to their final destination. Thus calls
that are unqueried and the dialed NXX is native to that end office will be completed (for both ported and non-ported
numbers). This will require response mapping of the incoming STDPRTCT for LNP calls from the CMRS to end office
through the AIN Response Mapping capabilities described in TMP 91-05-002. Mapping should be established that allows
the FLRN returned by the ISCP to be valid for call completion, instead of blocked as it is in the incoming STDPRTCT
associated with the trunk group.
DMS switches cannot complete calls from Access To Carrier (ATC) trunk groups to ATC trunk groups. This inhibits call
completion when a call is received via Type 2B interconnection and the called number is remote call forwarded to an
interoffice number routed via another ATC trunk group. This scenario exists regardless of the signaling protocol, MF versus
SS7. Product Management (Marketing) is aware of this limitation.
The Type 2B Land to CMRS interconnection requires similar translations input as the TYPE 2A arrangement in the AT,
that is an IT trunk group type whether MF or SS7. However, only the CMRS NXX(s) local to that EO should be allowed
to route over the outgoing trunk group. Only traffic originating on that switch should use the type 2B trunk group. Alternate
routing of the TYPE 2B to TYPE 2A via the tandem is allowed for overflow, if both EO and CMRS subtend the AT. Tariffs
will be filed in all SWB region states for Land to CMRS (MOBILE) Type 2B.

Cellular callers are connected to the TOPS switch by TOPS type trunk groups from the CMRS. Directory Assistance calls
can be completed by the TOPS for the cellular customer. Two methods of DACC are available, however, only one allows
the cellular roamer (customer not in home area) to use DACC. Feature Group C (FGC) signaling method and Type 2D
interconnection which uses Feature Group D (FGD) signaling. FGD is required to allow cellular roamers access to DACC
services.
Currently the FGC method is used. The following translations (example datafill only) are necessary:

The type 2D interconnection will give the CMRS access to the TOPS for Cellular Directory Assistance Sent Paid (SP)
Call Completion Service (DACC). This will include the Cellular Roamers (Cellular callers originating calls outside their
home area). The CMRS will be required to establish a new TOPS type trunk group, with a calling ID of COMFGD, using
Feature Group D (FGD) signaling from their network to the serving TOPS office. Each CMRS will be uniquely identified
by a Carrier Identification Code (CIC), call completion will use Equal Access translations.
FGD signaling on a TOPS COMFGD trunk takes place as follows: The Automatic Number Identification (ANI) is sent,
followed immediately by the called number stage. Important features of COMFGD signaling are:
Start Translation (ST) digits are not primed (i.e., STP ST2P and ST3P are not used). Instead, the station class is identified
based on the ANI information digits, as specified in TOPS table OSSCAT.
ANI consists of two information digits (II) followed by 10 calling digits for ANI success calls. The resulting pattern is KP-
II-NPA-NXX-XXXX-ST.
The digit, 0, is included in the called number as a prefix to indicate that the call is operator assisted. Cellular Carriers
forward 3/10 called digits and the resulting pattern is KP-0-411-ST and KP-0-NPA-555-1212-ST.
Wink response between the ANI stage and the called digit stage is sent.
FGD digit signaling ends with a wink; for calls that are answered and calls that go to an operator, the sending office
receives an off hook after the wink.
The CMRS must send 10 digits for the calling number to insure correct billing records.
NOTE:
( If a call that arrives from a CMRS turns out to be interLata, call completion will not be offered. However, National
DA offerings to residential customers created the possibility of call completion by the CMRS network. Methods
for this service are pending.)
The CMRS Interconnect form will indicate the request for DACC by the provider. This will include the indication for a
COMFGD trunk group type and the CIC associated with the CMRS.
If an existing FGC arrangement exists, the trunk members should be moved into the new FGD trunk group. Both DA and
DACC calls can be handled by the FGD trunks. This must be coordinated with the CMRS.

The CMRS will order a dedicated outgoing Type 2A trunk group from the SWBT AT to interconnect at the CMRS switch.
The order must specify that the trunk group is for AWCP service. No other CMRS NXXs will route from the AT over the
AWCP trunk group. There should be no alternate routing of the AWCP traffic to a regular Type 2A trunk group. All CMRS
originating traffic must access the appropriate trunk groups as previously defined through out this method.
AWCP NXXs should be opened in each SWBT end office in the LATA, calls are dialed using existing local dialing plans
(e.g. no prefix seven digits, no prefix 10 digits, and 0+10 digits will be allowed.) An intraLata station paid billing record
(Call Code 006) should be recorded for no prefix calls.
Existing AWCP methods in TMP 94-10-002 direct that the STDPRTs (for all classes of service except COIN) and the
HNPACONT table break out the assigned AWCP NXX and route it to the Access Tandem (AT) or TOPS in the case of
COIN. Table STDPRTCT.STDPRT is translated to mark the no prefix call as DD. The AWCP NXX is not included in
LCASCRCN tables. These translations generate the call code 006 record. However, this scheme is not without trouble
and resulted in removing COIN originated calls from the translation scheme. (The current local rate is acceptable for cost
recovery for calls from SWBT Coin lines.)
The recommended translations for creating the call code 006 record are to make use of the STDPRTCT.AMAPRT
functionality. This eliminates the need to break out the AWCP NXX specifically in subtable STDPRT. The AWCP NXX
should be translated as any other local code in both STDPRT and LCASCRCN. The subtable AMAPRT allows overriding
the local call type and generating a call code 006 record for the call.

The resulting AMA record with this translation scheme is call code 006, structure code 00500. Detailed billing information
is recorded, including calling DN, called DN, elapsed time, etc. These translations eliminate problems associated with
AIN response translations, especially in Response Simplification. LNP would also be impacted in the future when CMRS
customers can port their wireless numbers under the previous translations recommendations.
Tops Translations
Customers who dial 0+10 (coin and non-coin) will be sent to TOPS. Customers will get the initial deposit back on COIN
lines, as usual, when calls route to TOPS. Operator handling charges will apply on the 0+ calls, POTS customers will be
billed accordingly. Callers from COIN lines will be asked for alternate billing or directed to deposit the appropriate amount.
AMA will be recorded in the TOPS.
Customers who dial 0- and ask the operator to assist them in reaching an AWCP NXX must pay the Operator Assisted
or Operator Handled charges for the call. One AMA record will be generated for the call in TOPS, the originating party
will pay the OA/OH surcharge and the cellular carrier will pay the minutes of use for the call.
Translations for AWCP NXXs must be coordinated with the Facility Managers in Operator Services to assure correct rating
and billing translations are added to the Operator databases.

Building your trunk groups like this allows you to add and delete trunks from the group without having to go to each member
and make a change.
This trunk group allows completion of Intra-Lata Toll and local traffic to all end offices served by the Tandem.
Originating FGD traffic from the CMRS to the Inter-Exchange Carriers is routed on a separate tandem equal access trunk
group. Type 2A trunk groups handle originating and terminating Intra-Lata toll traffic. Type 2A trunk groups are engineered
as direct final with no alternate routing.
NOTE:
The INDIT/LDIT used for any 2A CMRS incoming or 2-way trunk group type must block OZZCIC digits. Only Intra-
Lata traffic should be accepted from the CMRS provider, this includes Public Response Network Services (Mass

The AMA Capabilities for Type 2A Cellular Interconnections provides the ability to generate a new Cellular Mobile Carrier
(CMC) AMA record for each CMC trunk group and for each direction when a call is completed between the 5ESS Access
Tandem for Type 2A Cellular Interconnections and mobile customers.
Call Code 066 may be generated for Terminating Cellular Mobile Carrier calls and Call Code 064 may be generated for
Originating Cellular Mobile Carrier Calls.
For the Type 2A Secured Feature (SFID 128); CMC trunks use in-band MF (Multi-Frequency) signaling, that is, CCS7
signaling between the CMC and the Access Tandem (AT) is not supported. Available as a 5E9(1) and later Software
Update, the CMC Type 2A Cellular Interconnections via CCS feature (Secured Feature 160) implements CCS7 signaling
between the CMC and the Access Tandem.
The Revenue Accounting Office (RAO) will receive additional detailed billing records for Type 2A Interconnections when
this feature is active and billing records have been requested for at least one CMC. The content of AMA records will
change somewhat when this new feature is activated. In addition, some 800 Service AMA records and originating IC
records associated with CMC calls will have their fields modified by this feature, specifically, the Originating Number and
Service Feature fields.
Secured Feature 160 supports Type 2A with CCS7, while Secured Feature 128 supports Type 2A with MF only.

It has been determined that SBC-SW does not use and therefore does not require call code 064 (outgoing CMC) records,
unless temporary special studies are being conducted by CABS. Therefore, 2-way trunk groups will have only TERM
CMC equal to 2A. One-way outgoing trunk groups require no entry in either ORIG CMC or TERM CMC. One-way incoming
trunk groups require only TERM CMC be populated with 2A. In the case of a special study, the translations center may
provision a trunk group's ORIG CMC entry with 2A.

Originating FGD traffic from the CMRS to the Inter-Exchange Carriers is routed on this trunk group. This trunk group also
supports 800 traffic and requires Feature Group D protocol signaling. Type 2A allows combining Inter-Lata and Intra-Lata
traffic on the same Type 2A trunk group (only if requested by the CMRS provider) or the CMRS provider can convert their
existing equal access trunk groups to Type 2A.

As an example, a Cellular customer completes a call to an InterExchange subscriber trunk from CMC to Access Tandem
and from Access Tandem to the Feature Group D carrier. The FGD Carrier Access record (with Structure Code 0625 and
Call Code 110) will be generated in conjunction with the Type 2A terminating record (with Structure Code 0625 and Call
Code 066).
The originating number in the AMA record is set to the CMC trunk billing number.
Although CMRS providers can only terminate to subscribers served out of that office, calls that are unqueried and the
dialed NXX is native to that end office will be completed for ported numbers. Example, 210-222 is a NOC (native NXX)
in the end office. CMRS provider routes 210-222-1234 (unqueried ported out number) over the 2B trunk group which no
longer terminate in the end office. This NXX (provisioned on the trunk DAS/LDIT) is assigned an LNP trigger, a query is
launched to the LNP database, an LRN is returned and the LRN (NXX) is routed to the appropriate end office based on
Post Query DAS (LDIT) provisioning (See TMP 97-09-001 Local Number Portability).
This trunk group must generate terminating FGD billing records for incoming traffic from the CMRS. A minimal carrier
common block must be established for Carrier ID 0698 to allow the CMRS trunk group to be associated with CIC 0698.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Wireless 911 Mandate require wireless carriers to provide Mobile
Directory Number (MDN), cell site information (Pseudo ANI or PANI) and the ability to identify the latitude and longitude
for 911 calls to the Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs).
Type 2C, ISUP (SS7), dedicated trunks are required to provision Wireless 911 service.
7. 4. Ericsson AXE
Due to translation complexities, Type 1 and Type 2B interconnection will not be 'generally available' on the
Ericsson switch. Interconnection arrangements must be negotiated on a customer-specific, case-by-case, basis.
Translations are provided only for a standard arrangement.
Generic Requirements
The Type 1 Commercial Mobile Radio Service (CMRS) connection is an end office implementation, which uses the 'BT1'
type trunk group in the AXE. With the implementation of Generic L10R5.2, Ericsson has provided limited screening
assignments to BT-1 trunk types. The most important is the ability to assign a Primary InterLATA Carrier to the trunk group
with the 'MD' parameter. This will allow assignment of a PIC for all calls encountering the 'CI-1' parameter. Lack of
additional assignments will prevent the screening of calls from a BT-1 trunk group for different calling scopes and dialing
procedures, therefore, the Type 1 CMRS connection can only be made to the Host wire center.

All state tariffs' require Land line originated traffic will be delivered to the MTSO via a dedicated NXX.
The Ericsson AXE is currently not deployed in SWBT as an Access Tandem for Type 2A cellular connections. Therefore
no Type 2A cellular connections should be provisioned.
To create the proper billing record on the Automatic Message Accounting (AMA) file a Carrier Code of 698 will be defined
in the incoming trunk group using Route Data BT1/S7BTC parameter 'MB' for Primary InterLATA Carrier (PIC).
7.3.5. 4.3.5 TYPE 2B TWO WAY ( INC AND OGT from the MTSO)
TRANSLATIONS
Translations for Type 2B Two Way combine the methods for Type 2B terminating with the Type 2B originating. The TYPE
2B interconnection will only provide the CMRS with originating and terminating access to directory numbers served by
the end office to which it is connected. Calls to codes subtending the toll tandem portion of a combined Local/Toll switch
will not be permitted via the TYPE 2B connection. Translations for the incoming side (CMRS to EO) require a unique B-
Origin defined on the incoming trunk BT1/S7BTC trunk group. This unique B-Table will allow calls to the EO NXX codes
only, and will send all other calls to RC=212 (Vacant Code). When a call from the CMRS customer is to a ported out NXX
the Ericsson End Office will do an LNP query. Calls to DNs that have ported out of this switch will be allowed to complete.
To create the proper billing record on the Automatic Message Accounting (AMA) file a Carrier Code of 698 will be defined
in the incoming trunk group using Route Data BT1/S7BTC parameter 'MB' for Primary InterLATA Carrier (PIC).
