Common Channel Interoffice Signaling No. 7 |
Common Channel Signaling (CCS) No. 7 or CCIS7 is a CCS system bases 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 rout 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 (INCs) Point 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 and 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. |
A 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 a 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-Tones) telephones are given special provisions by |
the MCCS. Both, the operator handling and the direct entry of calling card |
calls, are decreasing the size 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 Signalling-Direct Signalling (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. |
Auxiliary Operator Services System |
The DMS-200 Auxiliary Operator Services System (AOSS) is used primarily for |
Directory Assistance and the intercept needs that are not included in the TOPS |
package. The AOSS is similar to TOPS and co-exist with TOPS on the DMS-200 |
Toll system. |
