Common Channel Interoffice Signaling No. 7 |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Common Channel Signaling (CCS) No. 7 or CCIS7 is a CCS system based on CCITT |
No. 7. CCIS7/CCS7 on the DMS switch consists of two parts: the Message |
Transfer Part (MTP) and the Interim Telephone user Part. They are compatible |
with DMS-100, DMS-200, DMS-100/200, and DMS-100/DMS-100/200 with TOPS. |
CCIS7 can't tell the difference between banded and direct signaling. CCIS7 |
uses Destination/Origination Point Codes (DPC/OPC) to route back to the |
switch. |
CCIS7 can handle Automatic Calling Card Service (ACCS), Enhanced INWATS, Local |
Area Signaling Services, and Direct Service Dialing Capabilities. |
Equal Access |
~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
The DMS-200 Access Tandem (AT) gives a traffic concentration and distribution |
function for interLATA traffic originating and a distribution function for |
interLATA traffic origination or terminating inside a Local Access and |
Transport Area (LATA). This gives the interLATA Carrier (IC) access to more |
that one end office inside the LATA. It can handle InterLATA Carrier access |
codes (10xxx), 10xxx and 950-yxxx dialing, Automatic Number Identification |
(ANI) on all calls, answer supervision, equal access Automatic Message |
Accounting (AMA) for both originating and terminating calls, and operator |
service signaling. |
The DMS-100 EA gives direct and tandem switched access service inside the LATA |
for originating and terminating to interLATA Carriers. It is available in the |
following three ways: |
Equal Access End Office (EAEO) |
------------------------------ |
DMS-100 Equal Access End Office (EAEO) gives a direct interconnection to |
interLATA Carriers' (IC) and international Carriers' (INC) Points of Presence |
(POP) inside the LATA. |
Access Tandem with Equal Access End Office |
------------------------------------------ |
The DMS-200 Access Tandem (AT) when used with equal access end office (EAEO) |
lets trunk tandem interconnect to ICs/INCs POP inside the LATA. |
The connection of the Equal Access End Office (EAEO) to an IC/INC through the |
DMS-200 Access Tandem (AT) uses what is called two-stage overlap output |
pulsing which makes the time it takes to set up a call quicker. The AT uses |
the digits OZZ + XXX out pulsed in the first stage to identify the IC/INC |
dialed and to pick out outgoing trunk. Then a connection is established from |
the IC/INC to the EAEO through the AT. The second stage digits consist of ANI |
and the called numbers are passed through the DMS-200 AT at the IC/INC. |
An AMA terminating record in AT&T format is produced by the DMS-200 for all |
the EAEOs. A per call terminating AMA record is made for calls that get to |
the stage where the trunk from the IC/INC has been seized and a "wink" has |
been returned by the DMS-200 AT. |
Access Tandem with a Non-Equal Access End Office |
------------------------------------------------ |
DMS-200 AT using a non-equal access end office gives trunk tandem connection |
to an IC/INC POP within the LATA. To set up a call, connection of Feature |
Group B (FGB) or Feature Group C (FGC) End Office to an IC/INC through the |
DMS-200 AT uses the standard Bell Central Automatic Message Accounting (CAMA) |
signaling. The Access Tandem uses the XXX digits of the access code 950-YXXX |
out pulsed from the FGB end office to identify the IC/INC and to connect to an |
outgoing trunk. |
Mechanized Calling Card Service (MCCS) |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
The fraudulent use of calling cards, third number and collect calls and the |
increasing movement to automate current operator services has directly led to |
the implantation of the Mechanized Calling Card Service (MCCS) to DMS-200/TOPS |
and to the remote and host Operator Centralization (OC). |
MCCS uses CCIS to relay queries and responses to and from the DMS-200/TOPS. |
Operator handled calling card calls and the direct entry by subscribers of |
Calling Cards by DTMF (Touch-Tone) telephones are given special provisions by |
the MCCS. Both the operator handling and the direct entry of calling card |
calls are decreasing the size of the operators. |
Billed Number Screening (BNS) gives an enhancement to the operator-handled |
collect and third-number billing by using CCIS to screen a number at the |
billing validation data base for billing restrictions (i.e. the third number |
is a fortress). This feature naturally will reduce fraudulent use of the |
collect call feature. |
Common Channel Interoffice Signaling-Direct Signaling (CCIS-DS), which is |
the feature that the MCCS is designed around, is used to transmit messages to |
and from many possible Billing Validation Centers (BVCs). Messages |
transmitted to the BVC about MCCS include the billing number and the Personal |
Identification Number (PIN). In BNS the messages have the special billing |
number (collect or third number). The return messages from the BVC include |
validity (of the number), billing restrictions (if any), and the Revenue |
Accounting Office (RAO) code. |
