B. FACILITIES OF OTHER COMPANIES 1. Special Construction Certain services offered in this tariff are subject to the availability of suitable facilities from the Local Exchange Company. In some instances in order to provide a service in response to a Customer's order, this Company may incur charges and/or liabilities in the Local Exchange Company's special construction tariff schedule.

In addition, this schedule sets forth the regulations under which the Company anticipates to be able to provide a service(s) which requires facilities from the Local Exchange Company. However, such service(s) will not be provided if facilities can not be obtained from a Local Exchange Company because a condition over which a Customer has control (e.g. hazardous locations, etc.) violates a regulation in the Local Exchange Company's Access Tariff.

Except as otherwise specified in this tariff, where the rate to be charged for a particular service is determined by applying a percentage or similar factor to a quoted rate, and such computation results in a fraction, the charge for the service shall be computed to the nearest cent, a half cent being increased to the next higher cent. 4. In the event that payment from a Customer is less than the total amount of all charges owing to the Company and the Customer does not specifically designate the manner in which he wishes to apply said payment, then the Company may apply all or any part of the payments received to such accounts or indebtedness in any manner that the Company desires. 5. In the event it becomes necessary for service to be discontinued to a Customer for nonpayment, a written notice of at least seven calendar days (measured from the day following the date of mailing) must be given advising the Customer of the amount due and the date by which the same must be paid. If the Customer fails to pay or make suitable arrangements for payment by said date, the Company may suspend the service or discontinue the service and remove any or all of its equipment from the Customer's premises. 6.

The fact that a deposit has been made shall in no way relieve the applicant or Customer from complying with the regulations of the Company as to advance payments and prompt payment of bills on presentation, nor constitute a waiver or modification of the regular practices of the Company providing for the termination of a contract for service on account of nonpayment of any sums due the Company for services furnished. 2. The deposit will bear simple interest at the rate currently effective by order of the Idaho Public Utilities Commission, payable on the actual amount on deposit with the Company. 3. When the contract for the services is terminated, the amount of the deposit with interest computed from the date of its receipt by the Company to the date of termination of the contract will be returned to the Customer less such sums as may be due the Company for services furnished. However, if the Company deems the deposit, or a portion thereof, no longer necessary, it may return the deposit, or a portion thereof, prior to termination of the contract, in which case interest will be computed to the date of the notice to the Customer that the deposit, or a portion thereof, will be returned to him.

MINIMUM SERVICE PERIOD Unless otherwise indicated in a particular schedule, the minimum service period of a service or channel is one month except when the cost of construction is such as to necessitate a longer service period. In the latter case the Company may require execution of a contract with a minimum period greater than one month. B. CHARGE PERIODS Where the minimum service period is one month, the minimum charge will be for one month. If the period of use exceeds one month, the charges for any fractional period following and consecutive with the full month, will be prorated on the basis of the number of days in the period in question to thirty (30) days in the billing month. Where a basic termination charge is stated in the schedules as being reduced by a specified ratio for each month of service, the minimum service period for such service is one month. If the period of use exceeds one month, any fractional period of less than a full month will be prorated on the basis of the number of days in the period in question to thirty (30) days.

COMPUTING FRACTIONAL CHARGES OR CREDITS FOR A RATE CHANGE When a monthly rate is changed (increased or decreased) as a result of a tariff revision, the additional charge or credit is calculated as follows. 1. Monthly Rates For any fractional part of a month, count the number of days remaining in the billing period (including the 31st day of a 31-day month) starting with the effective date of the rate change. Divide that figure by 30 days (billing month). The resultant fraction is then multiplied by the amount of the monthly rate change to arrive at the fractional charge or credit for the rate change. Example: Rate change effective on the 12th day of the 28 day month. Old Monthly Charge = $1,000.00 No. of Days Remaining in Billing = 17 Days Period Billing Month = 30 Days Fractional Part of Month 17 Billed at the New Rate = 30 Rate Change = $60 monthly increase Fractional Charges or 17 x $60 = $34.00 Credit for the Rate Change = 30 Billing for the Month in which the Rate Change Occurred (for a rate decrease subtract the fractional charges) = $1,000 + $34 = $1,034.00 Subsequent New Monthly Charges = $1,000 + $60 = $1,060.00 In the above example, the number of days remaining in the billing period would be 19 for a 30-day month and 20 for a 31-day month. The same process would be used for computing the fractional monthly charge or credit.

ROUNDING TO THE NEAREST CENT If the computed charge(s) or credit include one-half cent or more, the fraction is rounded up to the next higher cent. Fractions of less than one-half cent are disregarded. E. COMPUTING CHARGES OR CREDITS FOR A FRACTIONAL PART OF A MONTH When rates are stated on a monthly basis, each month is considered to have 30 days for billing purposes. Charges or credits for a fractional part of a month are calculated by counting the number of days remaining in the billing period after the private line service is furnished or has been discontinued. The number of days remaining in the billing period (including the 31st day of a 31- day month, if applicable) are counted starting with the day after the date on which the private line service was furnished or discontinued. Divide that figure by 30 days. The resultant fraction is then multiplied by the monthly charge to arrive at the fractional monthly charge or credit. Example: Private line service furnished/discontinued on the 15th day of a 30-day month. Monthly Charge = $1,000.00 No. of Days Remaining in Billing Period = 15 days Billing Month = 30 days No. of Days Remaining in Fractional Monthly Charge/Credit = Billing Period x Monthly Charge Billing Month Fractional Monthly Charge/Credit = 15 x $1,000.00 30 Fractional Monthly Charge/Credit = $500.00 In the above example, the number of days remaining in the billing period would be 13 for a 28-day month and 16 for a 31-day month. The same process would be used for computing the fractional monthly charge or credit.

GENERAL REGULATIONS 2.4 PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS AND CREDIT ALLOWANCE (Cont'd) 2.4.4 CANCELLATION, DELAY OR CHANGE OF AN ORDER The regulations set forth in this section for the cancellation, delay or change of an order apply to all private line service components. When an order for a private line service is placed, a due date will be established. That due date will be confirmed with the Customer. In the event that a due date is delayed as set forth in A. or B. following, the due date for the order will be changed to reflect the number of days of delay or advance, as appropriate. A. DELAY OF A DUE DATE BY THE CUSTOMER A Customer may delay the due date of an order involving the installation, move or rearrangement of a private line service when: - Paragraph B. following is not applicable and the request for the delay is received by AT&T prior to the order's due date, and - The total delay measured from the order's initial due date does not exceed 30 cumulative calendar days. Orders involving the discontinuance of a private line service may be delayed at any time prior to the due date. There will be no maximum delay period for these orders. 1. Maximum Delay Period When the Customer has delayed an order for the maximum 30 cumulative calendar day period, the order may not be delayed again by the Customer. In such case, unless B. following applies, the Customer has the option to (1) accept billing for the private line service ordered, or (2) cancel the order and pay the applicable cancellation charge for the private line service ordered. The billing or cancellation charge is effective on the 30th cumulative calendar day of the delay. If the Customer elects to accept billing, the installation will be completed as soon as reasonably practical after the Customer advises AT&T that the installation can be completed.

GENERAL REGULATIONS 2.4 PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS AND CREDIT ALLOWANCE (Cont'd) 2.4.4 CANCELLATION, DELAY OR CHANGE OF AN ORDER (Cont'd) B. DELAY OF A DUE DATE BY AT&T AT&T will make every reasonable effort to assure that the private line service ordered is furnished on the due date. However, in some cases a delay in the installation may be unavoidable. If an order is delayed beyond its due date for more than 30 cumulative calendar days and such delay is not requested or caused by the Customer, the Customer may cancel the order without cancellation charges applying. C. CANCELLATION OF AN ORDER A critical date schedule is established by AT&T for each private line service order placed by a Customer. AT&T uses this schedule to identify key activities in the service order process, to monitor the progress of the installation, and to administer the schedule of cancellation charges. Critical date schedules may vary between service orders. The specific critical dates which have been established for a given order can be obtained from the Customer's AT&T sales negotiator. The critical dates monitored by AT&T are: - Application Date (APP): The date on which the Customer provides a firm commitment and sufficient information to AT&T to proceed with issuance of a firm order for service. - Scheduled Issue Date (SID): The date on which the service order is entered into AT&T's service order distribution system. - Design Layout Report Date (DLRD): The date on which the Design Layout Report (DLR) or access interface information is received by AT&T from the LEC. - Records Issue Date (RID): The date on which all circuit design and assignment information is sent to the central office installation force.

CANCELLATION OF AN ORDER (Cont'd) - Wired and Office Tested Date (WOT): The date by which all intraoffice wiring is completed, all plug-ins are optioned and aligned, and frame continuity is established. - Circuit Test and Acceptance (CTA) Date: The date on which overall testing of the service is completed. - Due Date (DD): The date that has been established for completion of the installation of a private line service. If an order for a private line service is canceled by the Customer prior to the SID, no charge applies. For cancellations by the Customer on or after the SID, a cancellation charge will apply. The amount of the cancellation charge will vary according to the category of service ordered and the date reached in the critical date schedule. Cancellation charges applicable to the components of each category of private line service are listed in the service-specific sections of this tariff. If the Customer or AT&T delays the due date of an order, in accordance with 2.4.4.A. or B. preceding, the critical date schedule for the order will be revised for those critical dates not yet passed. Subsequent cancellation of the delayed order by the Customer will cause a cancellation charge based on the revised schedule to be incurred.

GENERAL REGULATIONS 2.4 PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS AND CREDIT ALLOWANCE (Cont'd) 2.4.6 ALLOWANCE FOR INTERRUPTIONS A. GENERAL A credit allowance will be given when a private line service is interrupted, except as specified in B. following. An interruption period begins when the Customer reports a private line service to be interrupted and releases it for testing and repair. An interruption period ends when the private line service is operative. If the Customer reports a private line service to be inoperative but declines to release it for testing and repair, it is considered to be impaired, but not interrupted. In addition, there are specific credit allowance regulations that only apply to a particular private line service. Those regulations are specified in the section of the tariff which is applicable to the specific private line service. B. LIMITATIONS Credit allowance does not apply for: 1. Interruptions caused by the negligence of the Customer or others authorized by the Customer to use the Customer's service. 2. Interruptions due to the failure of power, equipment, system or connections not provided by AT&T. 3. Interruptions during any period when the Customer or User has released a private line service for maintenance or rearrangement purposes, or for the implementation of a Customer order. 4. Interruptions during periods when the Customer elects not to release the private line service for testing and/or repair. 5. Interruptions caused by the failure of access. 6. An interruption or group of interruptions, resulting from a common cause, for amounts less than one dollar.

USE OF ANOTHER MEANS OF COMMUNICATION If the Customer elects to use another means of communications during the period of interruption, the Customer must pay the charges for the alternative service used. D. TEMPORARY SURRENDER OF A PRIVATE LINE SERVICE In certain instances, the Customer may be asked to surrender a private line service for purposes other than maintenance, testing or activity relating to a service order. If the Customer consents, a credit will be given. One day's credit will be given for each 24 hour period or fraction thereof that the service is surrendered. E. CALCULATION OF CREDIT ALLOWANCES A credit allowance will be given for private line services that are interrupted for 30 minutes or more. For calculating credit allowances for monthly services, every month is considered to have 30 days. The credit allowance is determined in the following manner: 1. Calculate the Average Point Value by adding the total monthly charges for the private line service. That sum is then divided by the total number of AT&T central offices on the service to obtain the Average Point Value. 2. Calculate the Average Point Value for one full day by dividing the Average Point Value for one month by 30 days: (1) divided by 30, 3. Multiply the Average Point Value for one day by the interruption period to be credited (see Calculation Table, following) in order to determine the credit for one point: (2) x interruption period.

Total monthly charge = $1,200 Average Point Value = $1,200 = $600 2 Average Point Value for one full day = $ 600 = $200 30 Amount credited for one point = $ 20 x 1/5 = $4.00 Total credit for the number of AT&T central offices affected = $ 4.00 x 2 = $8.00 Example 2: A multipoint private line service with six AT&T central offices. Length of interruption = 3 hours. Service to only three AT&T central offices is affected (i.e., service to the remaining three AT&T central offices continued in use). Total monthly charge = $4,800 Average Point Value = $4,800 = $800 Average Point Value for one full day = $ 800 = $26.67 30 Amount credited for one point = $ 26.67 x 1/5 = $ 5.34 Total credit for the number of channels affected = $ 5.34 x 3 = $16.02 Idaho Public Utilities Commission Office of the Secretary ACCEPTED FOR FILING March 31, 2003 Boise, Idaho AT&T COMMUNICATIONS OF THE MOUNTAIN STATES, INC.

T1.5 Service For ACCUNET T1.5 Services' Customers, an interruption allowance in lieu of that specified in 2.4.6.F.1. above will be made for each reported interruption, in accordance with the table below. If more than one interruption is reported on a channel (including a local channel obtained from AT&T Schedule 11) in a given month, each subsequent interruption is considered independently in calculating total credits for that channel on the following month's bill. However, the cumulative credit allowances may not exceed 100 percent, per channel, in a given month. Credit may not be carried over to subsequent months. The Customer's recurring charges for the channel and associated rate elements in the month that the interruption occurs will be the basis for calculation of the credit allowance for that month. Discounts due to pricing plans will be applied prior to the application of credit allowances.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION 3.3 SERVICE COMPONENTS A private line service connects two or more points which may be AT&T central offices, points of connection, Customer premises, or combinations thereof. A private line service may also consist solely of an office function. 3.3.1 INTEROFFICE CHANNEL An IOC is a channel between two AT&T Central Offices, points of connection, or a combination thereof. An IOC may be provided between LATAs or within a LATA. 3.3.2 CENTRAL OFFICE CONNECTION A Central Office connection provides the physical interconnection, at the same AT&T Central Office, between an IOC, an office function(s), from a Local Channel(s) obtained from Tariff 11 or other access. One central office connection applies for each combination of two of the above elements connected. Examples of the types of connections are: - an IOC to: a Local Channel or other access, an office function - a Local Channel to: another Local Channel or other access, an office function - an office function to: another office function - other access to: an office function When access is connected to an AT&T service and the Customer wishes AT&T to perform the functions of access design, ordering, installation, coordination, pre-service testing and service turn- up, trouble sectionalization and restoration coordination, the Access Coordination Function, furnished under Tariff 11, provides those functions. When the Access Coordination Function is ordered, AT&T will design the service based upon standard engineering considerations which may not produce a minimum price configuration. When other access is connected to an AT&T service and the Customer wishes AT&T to perform only the function of physical connection of the other access to a service component at an AT&T Central Office, a central office connection only is employed. In such cases AT&T makes or implies no warranty that the assembly will operate properly or that transmission will be satisfactory.

INTEROFFICE CHANNEL MILEAGE MEASUREMENT 4.1 GENERAL The rate mileage for an Interoffice Channel, except noted herein, is the airline distance measured between two AT&T central offices. To determine the rate mileage for an Interoffice Channel first determine the appropriate AT&T central office as follows: 4.1.1 DETERMINING AT&T CENTRAL OFFICE The appropriate AT&T central office used to price a private line service is determined by (1) the LATA(s) in which the private line service is desired, (2) the category of private line service to be provided, and (3) the designated AT&T central offices when certain office functions are involved. A. DETERMINING THE AT&T CENTRAL OFFICES WITHIN A LATA The Customer may specify a particular AT&T central office within a LATA (i.e., Customer specified routing). In such cases, the Interoffice Channel will be physically routed and priced to the AT&T central office specified by the Customer. If the Customer does not make such a specification, AT&T will determine the AT&T central office(s) for a LATA, using the telephone number which normally serves the Customer's premises and the type of service to be provided as follows: 1. In Section 28 of AT&T Tariff F.C.C. No. 10, look up the area code and first three digits of the telephone number and find its LATA number listing. 2. In Sections 120 to 981 of AT&T Tariff F.C.C. No. 10, look up the LATA number and find the AT&T central offices within the LATA. Determine the AT&T central offices within the LATA which provide the service category required and the V&H coordinates for those AT&T central offices. 3. The AT&T central offices used to determine the mileage for an IOC will be the one which is nearest to the Customer's premises, determined as set forth in Section 4 of Tariff 11. If there is only one AT&T central office in a LATA for a category of private line service, no choice is necessary. 4. Once all of the appropriate AT&T central offices have been determined, calculate the air line distance between the AT&T central office (see Calculation of Airline Mileage, Section 4.1.2. following). The result will be the IOC rate mileage(s). Idaho Public Utilities Commission Office of the Secretary ACCEPTED FOR FILING March 31, 2003 Boise, Idaho AT&T COMMUNICATIONS OF THE MOUNTAIN STATES, INC.

No. 10. 4.1.2 CALCULATION OF AIRLINE MILEAGE Airline mileage between V&H coordinates is calculated as set forth in AT&T Tariff F.C.C. No. 10. Following is an example of how mileage is calculated in accordance with those regulations. A. EXAMPLE MILEAGE CALCULATION After determining the V&H coordinates of the AT&T central offices on a private line service as described in 4.1.1 preceding, calculate the mileage between the V&H coordinates as follows: 1. V and H: Boise, ID (BOISIDMA) (V)07094 (H)07866 Coeur D'Alene, ID (CRALIDXX)(V)06224 (H)08085 Idaho Public Utilities Commission Office of the Secretary ACCEPTED FOR FILING March 31, 2003 Boise, Idaho AT&T COMMUNICATIONS OF THE MOUNTAIN STATES, INC.

INTEROFFICE CHANNEL MILEAGE MEASUREMENT 4.1 GENERAL (Cont'd) 4.1.2 CALCULATION OF AIRLINE MILEAGE (Cont'd) A. EXAMPLE MILEAGE CALCULATION (Cont'd) 2. Obtain the difference between the V coordinates. Then obtain the difference between the H coordinates. (The difference is always obtained by subtracting the smaller coordinate from the larger). V H 07094 08085 -06224 - 07866 Difference 870 219 3. Square each difference (870)2 = 756900 (219)2 = 47961 4. Add the squares of the two differences. 756900 + 47961 = 804861 5. Divide the sum of the squares by 10. (Round any fraction obtained to the next higher whole number). 804861 /10 = 80486.1 Rounded = 80487 6. Take the square root of the result obtained in 5. The resultant is the airline miles of the IOC. (Fractional miles are rounded to the next higher whole number.) Square root of 80487 is 283.70 IOC airline mileage (Rounded) = 284 miles Idaho Public Utilities Commission Office of the Secretary ACCEPTED FOR FILING March 31, 2003 Boise, Idaho AT&T COMMUNICATIONS OF THE MOUNTAIN STATES, INC.

INTEROFFICE CHANNEL MILEAGE MEASUREMENT 4.2 TWO-POINT MILEAGE MEASUREMENT The rate mileage for the IOC on a two-point private line service is the airline distance measured between two AT&T central offices. 4.3 MULTIPOINT MILEAGE MEASUREMENTS The rate mileage for the IOC(s) on a private line service with three or more AT&T central offices is the sum of the individual airline mileages measured between each pair of AT&T central offices which produces the lowest mileage charge when all of the AT&T central offices are connected together. Example: The combination of mileages BOISE to POCATELLO and POCATELLO to IDAHO FALLS produces the lowest total mileage charge. Therefore, the private line service would be priced in that manner. The charge for the airline mileage between each pair of AT&T central offices is calculated separately and then summed. The actual routing of the private line service may vary from the priced configuration. Exceptions to this method of measurement may apply in those cases when the Customer specifies the sequence in which the IOC are connected (see Exceptions to Interoffice Channel Mileage Measurements, 4.4. following).

This section describes those exceptions. 4.4.1 CUSTOMER SPECIFIES THE IOC ROUTING OF A MULTIPOINT SERVICE This exception applies to multipoint services where the AT&T central offices are connected together in the sequence specified by the Customer. The total rate mileage is the combination of individual two-point airline distances measured between the AT&T central offices based on the sequence requested by the Customer. Example: A Customer specified a BOISE - POCATELLO - IDAHO FALLS multipoint service to be routed POCATELLO to BOISE and BOISE to IDAHO FALLS: ----- Shortest Distance ??? Customer Specified The service would be physically routed in the sequence requested by the Customer and would be priced according to that routing.

ACCUNET® SPECTRUM OF DIGITAL SERVICES 9.2 SERVICE COMPONENTS 9.2.1 INTEROFFICE CHANNEL (IOC) IOCs are available between AT&T Central Offices. A. RATES The monthly charge for an IOC includes a fixed rate and a mileage sensitive rate. (See Calculation of Charges, following.) Rates are as specified in the Price List. B. CALCULATION OF CHARGES To calculate the monthly recurring charges for an IOC, first determine the airline mileage between AT&T Central Offices (see Calculation of Airline Mileage, Section 4.1.2 preceding). Using the appropriate IOC rate for the service ordered, multiply the total airline miles by the mileage rate. To this figure add the fixed rate for the service. The sum of the mileage rate and the fixed rate is the total monthly charge for the IOC. Example: A Customer orders four ASDS 56/64 kbps channels between AT&T Central Offices that are 107 miles apart. 107 x the per mile rate for a 56/64 kbps channel ($0.34) x 4 $145.52 Add the Fixed Rate ($290.00) x 4 $1,160.00 Total Monthly IOC Charge $1,305.52 9.2.2 CENTRAL OFFICE CONNECTION A central office connection provides the function at an AT&T Central Office of connecting ASDS with office functions and Local Channels obtained from the Private Line Local Channel Services Tariff 11.

ACCUNET® SPECTRUM OF DIGITAL SERVICES 9.2 SERVICE COMPONENTS (Cont'd) 9.2.3 CHANNEL OPTIONS Channel options are features added to a channel to change or augment its transmission characteristics. The channel options available on ASDS are signaling capability, conditioning, customer requested echo control and special routing. A. SIGNALING CAPABILITY Signaling is the process by which one location alerts another location on the same channel or network that it wishes to communicate. Signaling capability permits signals to be transmitted over a service but does not include the capability to initiate or receive those signals. Information regarding interface codes and protocol codes can be found in Technical Publications - PUB 43202 and PUB 62210 (see Technical Publication Information, Preface). The types of signaling arrangements available are as follows: 1. Loop Start Loop Signaling Loop Start Loop Signaling is used for off-premises stations, trunk to station tie lines, and other services which use switching equipment at one end and other terminal equipment (e.g., in a handset) at the other end. This signaling arrangement is designed to pass an open loop (idle condition) or closed loop (seized condition) from the station to the switching equipment. It will transmit dial pulse or multifrequency pulsing signals from the station to the switching equipment, and dial tone and 20 Hertz ringing from the switching equipment to the station. 2. Ground Start Loop Signaling Ground Start Loop Signaling is used for services which use central office switching equipment on the open end and a PBX on the closed end to provide a PBX to central office trunk. In the operation of this arrangement, the closed end provides a closed loop and momentary ground for the ring conductor as a seizure. The open end provides a ground on the tip and battery on the ring as a seizure. This arrangement will transmit dial tone and 20 Hertz ringing from the open end to the closed end, and will transmit dial pulses or multifrequency pulsing address signals from the closed end to the open end.

E&M Signaling Interface The E&M Signaling Interface consists of two leads, the E lead and the M lead. The E lead generally receives supervision and pulsing from the distant interface. The M lead generally transmits supervision and pulsing toward the distant interface. This signaling arrangement is used for registered or grandfathered switching equipment tie trunks. 4. Two-Point Automatic Ringdown Signaling Arrangements Loop Closure Interface In this signaling arrangement, the calling station activates 20 Hertz ringing by providing a tip to ring conductor short as an off-hook signal. The 20 Hertz ringing operates a bell or relay at the distant station. Loop Closure interface is used for handset, key set, switchboard and console terminations. 5. Manual Signaling Arrangements for Two-Point or Multipoint Services 20 Hertz Interface In this signaling arrangement, the calling station transmits 20 Hertz ringing activated by the operation of a key or a button. The 20 Hertz ringing activates a bell or relay at the distant station. In the multipoint application, all stations receive the ring from the calling location. 6. Manual Signaling Arrangement with Code Selection for Multipoint Services This signaling arrangement is similar to the Manual Signaling Arrangement for Two-Point Services except that the calling station can select a single distant station or group of stations by keying one of nine predetermined codes. Only the station or stations called will respond to the ringing current.

Loop Reverse Battery This signaling arrangement changes the signaling state when the battery and ground on the tip and ring are reversed. This arrangement is typically used on PBX and Centrex tie trunks. 8. Signal Range Extension Signal Range Extension is required when a private line service (arranged for loop start dial signaling) is used as an off- premises station. There are three types: - Type A is furnished for use with Class A PBX (or similar) station ports capable of operation over loops with resistance in the range of 0-199 ohms. - Type B is furnished for use with Class B PBX (or similar) station ports capable of operation over loops with resistance in the range of 200-899 ohms. - Type C is furnished for use with Class C PBX (or similar) station ports capable of operation over loops with resistance in the range of 900 ohms or more. Rates are as specified in the Price List. B. CONDITIONING Conditioning provides more specific transmission characteristics for ASDS connected to voice grade access or to appropriate office functions. The following types of conditioning apply to end-to- end services using voice grade access. The conditioning parameters stated are based on the assumption that the access will meet the conditioning parameters set forth in the Local Exchange Companies' access service tariffs.

TRANSFER ARRANGEMENTS Transfer arrangements permit a Customer to transfer one channel to another or one service to another. They also enable a service to be used for alternate purposes, non-simultaneously, e.g., for voice or data transmission. Transfer Arrangements are restricted to ASDS applications utilizing Analog Voice Grade Private Line access. Transfer arrangements are provided at AT&T central offices. They may be key-activated or controlled by the 1 X N Control Arrangements as specified in Section 12.2.1 preceding. Key activated arrangements require a key and a control channel. The control channel and keys are provided by the Customer. Each channel connected to a transfer arrangement requires an office connection. 1. Private Line Service Transfer Arrangement This arrangement enables the Customer to interconnect two private line services in two different modes of operation non- simultaneously. The two private line services must share a common transfer arrangement and must be compatible operationally. The services may be two-point or multipoint. This arrangement may be used to connect more than two services in tandem, but AT&T will not support a tandem connection of services using more than three transfer arrangements and four or more services. In a typical application, the IOCs of two private line services are connected, creating one private line service or, alternately, the two services function independently. The Local Channel or other access connected to the IOC(s) may remain connected or be disconnected at the Customer's option. One control channel is required for a key-activated arrangement.
