- Bit Rate Interface (BRI) - BRI (128 - 256 - 384 ....512kb) and/or any circuit provisioning to include 1.54T-1 must meet the end equipment requirements for PAFB multi-functions to connect and operate at layer 1 and layer 2. Most circuits provisioned today come in 2-wire-line BRI (128kb each) - usually utilized for local video support. BRI traffic (as with any locally received commercial circuits) is sent out to PAFB customers on dry cable pair to the end-device. Past practices from local Telco, PAFB received new circuit on d-mark located at the main central office frame (MDF) - from there PAFB techs will x-connect out to the PAFB cable plant and wire customers jack to RJ-45, RJ-48C as applicable.

- Circuit Termination - Circuit termination at the Government installation includes the MDF for analog signals, metallic cable pairs, Digital Signal Cross-Connect (DSX)-1 patch, cross connect panel for T-1 circuits, DSX-3 for electrical T-3 circuits, fiber optic patch and cross connect panels for optical interface equipment such as the optical carrier or SONET systems, optical multiplexer equipment, and may extend to Cat 3/5/6 RJ-45 jack fields if directed by CSO 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.

- 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.

- Foreign Exchange Lines (FX lines) - Foreign exchange lines are defined by the Government as telephone numbers which are outside of the site local calling area. By connecting to a remote (foreign) exchange, the equivalent of local service from a distant exchange is provided.

- Government Emergency Telecommunications Service (GETS) - GETS is 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 intended to be used in an emergency or crisis situation when the PSTN is congested and the probability of completing a call over normal or other alternate telecommunication means has significantly decreased. The servicing LEC must have NPA (710) in their 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: http://gets.ncs.gov/

- Local Exchange Access and Service Areas - FR services apply for both lines and trunks. The local exchange access service 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. Access to the local exchange shall include Operator Assistance, Directory Assistance, and 911 services and functions.

- Multi Path Circuits or Point-to-Multipoint Circuits - A dedicated circuit that connects a single device (i.e., point) to multiple secondary devices. A simple bridge connects the path from the primary device to the paths that connect to each secondary device. Such a circuit is also known as a multi-drop circuit or a fantail circuit Point-to-multipoint circuits generally are phrased in the context of a Primary Crash circuit at most airports where the control tower is the initiator of the circuit and the multi-path or drops may extend to the fire department, security police, medical facilities, etc. The secondary points may be able to initiate the circuit back to the primary, but not between other secondary points.

- Off Premise Extension (OPX) - OPX is an extension telephone that terminates in a location distant from its parent base switch. OPX is generally used to provide personnel with access to the base switch. The OPX will have features and functions as designated by the base switch and CSO. The OPX can have direct access to the Defense Switched Network (DSN) or the Networx systems. OPX services will not extend beyond the LATA, state line boundary or both.

- Point-to-Point Circuits - Refers to a connection restricted to two endpoints. A traditional point-to-point circuit is a communications medium with exactly two endpoints and no data or packet formatting. The host equipment at either end had to take full responsibility for formatting the data transmitted between them. Point to Point circuits will not extend beyond the LATA, state line boundary or both

- Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Trunking - SIP trunking is a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and streaming media service based on the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) by which Internet telephone service providers (ITSPs)
