EBC Solution and Exit POCs

http://www.btwholesale.com 38

EBC & exit POCs: Current Process

•EBC currently uses a set of rules in conjunction with a list of exit POCs to derive the charge for:

•BT originated IA/CPS/118DQ

•Transit

http://www.btwholesale.com 39

New Solution: Agreed Exit POC

•No change to charging for BT-terminated traffic or BT-originated NTS

•The new solution will use Exit POCs shown in the routing plan database

•Least cost connectivity path to get to the agreed exit POC

•Changes to EBC algorithms, but not the use of EBC data

http://www.btwholesale.com 40

New Solution - Agreed Exit POCs (AEPs)

•Routing Plan data will directly drive EBC charge bands

•The Routing Plan data shows catchment area, number block and BT switch passing calls to CPs, e.g.

Ipswich, 01473292, Ipswich Unit A

•The routing plan database will show:

•If/when DMA has been raised by the Operator

•Agreed date of change on DMA

• When DMA has been implemented by BT

•The exit POC for a given origin will be that agreed to be in place when the EBC data goes live

http://www.btwholesale.com 41

Use of Agreed Exit POCs, BT-originated

Processing logic for each traffic type originating from a BT DLE:

Is the DLE a POC?YES NO

Use the POC in the Routing

Plan for charging

Select Tandem to use as AEP from Routing Plan

Obtain EBC charge band from DLE to Agreed Exit POC

http://www.btwholesale.com 42

Use of Agreed Exit POCs, transit

Processing logic for transit traffic at each BT tandem:

Is the tandem an Exit POC?

YES NO

Use the POC in the RoutingPlan for charging

Obtain EBC charge band from tandem to Agreed Exit POC

Identify the Agreed Exit POC from the

Routing Plan

Benefits

•Transparency

•CP control

•Predictability

•Simplification

EBC Solution and Timeline

http://www.btwholesale.com 45

EBC Solution - Timeline - DMAs

EBC Matrix ‘Y’ Build Start Date

EBC Matrix ‘Y’ Effective Date

EBC Matrix ‘X’ Effective Date

EBC Matrix ‘X’ Build Start Date

If DMA ‘A’ Agreed Implementation Date is during this period, then changes will be included in Matrix ‘Y’.

DMA ‘A’ may be raised during this period for inclusion in Matrix ‘Y’.

If DMA ‘A’ Agreed Implementation Date is during this period, then changes will NOT be included in Matrix ‘Y’.

EBC Solution and Two New Files

http://www.btwholesale.com 47

New Files – The Drivers

•Alignment with agreed routing

•Charging predictability

•Enabling routing optimisation

•Need for enhancements:

•Shows only existing points of connect

•Retardation of number ranges

•Exchange mapping

•Non-contractual traffic

•Effort

http://www.btwholesale.com 48

Two New Files

•A new file to assist CPs receiving traffic from BT

•A new file to assist CPs delivering traffic to BT

•Standard EBC file format

•Standard naming convention

•Standard header and trailers

•Comma-separated format data records

http://www.btwholesale.com 49

File 1 – Receiving Traffic from BT

•A BT-switch-to-BT-switch matrix, with charge band

•Any traffic type

•Valid call routing scenarios

•E.g. a DLE origin would be shown against the following destinations:

•For BT-originated traffic, the DLE itself and all switches that could be Exit POCs

•For transit traffic, nothing

•Each data record will contain:

•origin exchange NNI, destination exchange NNI, EBC charge band

•Transit / Non-transit charge bands
