APPENDIX 2 - DEFINITIONS & ACRONYMS

Table A Definitions

TERM DEFINITION

Appendix 1 Defines the Robins AFB, Georgia requirements detailing locations on circuit delivery.

Call Setup Success Rate (CSSR)

The fractionalized amount of calls that make a successful connection to a dialed number, this is divided by the total number of calls placed. (As defined by International Telecommunication Union).

Circuit Termination Circuit termination at the Government installation includes the Main Distribution Frame (MDF) for analog signals, metallic cable pairs, Digital Signal Cross-Connect (DSX)-1 patch, cross connect panel(s) for T-1 and/or T-3 circuits, fiber optic patch and cross connect panels for optical interface equipment such as the optical carrier or SONET or MPLS systems, optical multiplexer equipment, and may extend to Cat 3/5/6 RJ-45 jack fields if directed by the Government POC to ensure adequate hand off of the circuit to the Government. Other wall-mounted, punch-down, terminal blocks are used for isolation and termination of Contractor metallic facilities.

Communications Focal Point (CFP)

A 24/7 Focal Point located on an Air Force Facility that provides one stop notification services and provides reporting and tracking of communications outages to Government users of the communication systems.

Commercial Subscriber lines

(CSL)

A CSL is defined by Government standards as a voice grade subscriber line serving directly from the Contractor’s central office switch to customer’s location.

Competitive Local Exchange Carrier

(CLEC)

A telephone company that competes with the already established local telephone business by providing its own network and switching.

Contractor A supplier or vendor awarded a contract to provide specific supplies or service to the Government. The term used in this contract refers to the prime.

TERM DEFINITION

Customer Premise Equipment (CPE)

Also known as Customer-Provided Equipment is any equipment located at a subscriber's premises and connected with a carrier's telecommunication network at the contractually established demarcation point. The demarcation point contractually separates the customer equipment from the equipment located in either the distribution infrastructure or central office of the communications service provider. Vendor installed CPE devices are fully vendor owned, maintained, and monitored by the Vendor’s management platform. CPE equipment can be powered from the customer source electrical system, but a sufficient emergency power source must be available during periods of customer power interruption for any services contractually requiring a high level of reliability.

Customer Service Record (CSR)

Report that details the fixed monthly charges billed by the local telephone company. The CSR is composed of computer codes called USOCs, which in turn correspond to a particular tariffed service.

Defective Service A service output that does not meet the standard of performance associated with the PWS.

Deliverable Anything that can be physically delivered, but may include non-manufactured things such as meeting minutes or reports.

Dropped Call Rate

(DCR)

The fractionalized amount of calls that experience a lost connection after a successful initial call establishment. (As defined by International Telecommunication Union).

DS-1 A DS level and framing specification for synchronous digital streams, over circuits in the North American digital transmission hierarchy, at the DS1 transmission rate of 1,544,000 bits per second. DS1 is commonly used to multiplex 24 DS0 channels.

Each DS0 channel, originally a digitized voice-grade telephone signal, carries 8000 bytes per second (64,000 bits per second). A DS1 frame includes one byte from each of the 24 DS0 channels and adds one framing bit, making a total of 193 bits per frame at 8000 frames per second. The result is 193*8000 = 1,544,000 bits per second.

Edge Boundary Controller (EBC)

A customer provided network node device that provides firewall, intrusion detection, routing, QoS, and packet equalization between the Vendors IP Wide Area Network network and the interior customer IP network. The EBC will provide the logical demarcation point between IP SIP delivered services when applicable and will physically interface to the vendor’s CPE Gateway Router device.

Extended Area Calling Service

A geographic area beyond the local service area to which traffic is classified as local for selected customers, i.e., telephone service that allows subscribers in one exchange to call subscribers of another exchange without a toll charge or for a negotiated fixed rate.

Flat Rate A non-fluctuating monthly rate for telephone service in which an unlimited number of local calls can be made without further charge the extent of the contract. The monthly rate is established in the contract.

Government Emergency Telecommunications Service (GETS)

A White House-directed emergency phone service provided by the National Communications System (NCS) in the Cyber Security & Communications Division, National Protection and Programs of the Department of Homeland Security. GETS supports Federal, State, local, and tribal Government, industry, and non- Governmental organization (NGO) personnel in performing their National Security and Emergency Preparedness (NS/EP) missions. GETS provides emergency access and priority processing in the local and long distance segments of the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). It is used in an emergency or crisis situation when the PSTN is congested and the probability of completing a call over normal or other alternate tele-communication means has significantly decreased. The servicing LEC must have NPA (710) in the switch to allow access to the GETS line assigned to a specific site. Dialing 0/1+710-NXX-XXXX provides access to an emergency service for authorized users.

The 710 NPA provides access to a tariffed service of the GETS interexchange carriers (AT&T, MCI WorldCom, and Sprint) and the call is billed to the U.S. Government. Web link:

Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier

(ILEC)

The dominant phone carrier within a geographic area as determined by the FCC Section 252 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 provided local exchange service to specific area.

Interconnection Agreement

A business contract between telecommunication organizations for interconnecting their networks and exchanging telecommunication traffic. These agreements are present in both public switched telephone networks and the Internet.

Intra LATA Local toll service (also called intra-Local Access and Transport Area (LATA), local long distance, or regional toll service) provides calling within a geographic area known as a LATA. Per-minute toll charges usually apply to these calls.

Local Exchange Access and Service Areas

Areas shall include the areas/zones coverage as currently defined by the incumbent local service provider(s) and/or the State PUC for the Site and shall be applied under the scope of this contract and provide a list of these local exchange access service areas and any updates as they accrue. When the Contractor provides services to a Government installation, the LATA boundary shall not be limited or restricted to a Contractor’s service area.

Connection to intra-LATA exchange areas and with inter-LATA exchange carriers is required.

Measured Rate A message rate structure in which the monthly phone line rental includes a fixed rate on calls within a defined area. Measured services are often charged on the number of calls, the time of day, the distance traveled and/or the length of the call.

Non-Recurring Charges

A one-time fee IAW the established tariff rates at time of award that is associated with adding a local exchange service, including installment, activation and/or equipment.

Physical Security Actions that prevent the loss or damage of Government property.

Quality Assurance The Government procedures to verify that services being performed by the Contractor are performed according to acceptable standards.

Quality Control All necessary measures taken by the Contractor to assure that the quality of an end product or service shall meet contract requirements.

Reliability The probability that a system will not fail during a specified period of time.

Resilience The ability of a system to recover to its normal operating form after a failure or an outage.

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)

A communications protocol for signaling, call setup/teardown, and communication of telephone and Video Real-Time Systems over an IP Based Unified Communication System. (As defined by Internet Assigned Numbers Authority & Request for Comments).

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Trunking

A Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and streaming media service Based on the SIP by which Internet telephone service providers (ITSPs).
