7.0 INSTRUCTIONS FOR PRICING

The following section provides detailed procedures for applying Sprint’s prices. Each

service category is described in detail to allow agency personnel to calculate the costs of

services accurately and easily. These instructions will be updated and provided throughout

the life of the contract as information becomes out of date as a result of contract

modifications that add or expand services.

7.1 General Principles

The pricing tables are organized into service categories and service sub-categories as

follows:

1. Circuit Switched Service (CSS)

2. Switched Data Service (SDS)

3. Dedicated Transmission Service (DTS)

4. Value Added Service (VAS)

5. General

Within these service categories, service sub-categories and service types exist. The SDS

service category is split into two general service sub-categories, Network Layer Switched

Data Service (NLDS) and Link Layer Switched Data Service (LLDS) to distinguish network

layer and link layer price structures. The following table illustrates the service categories

and sub-categories utilized for pricing.

Prices for CSS, SDS, DTS and VAS services and features provide geographic coverage for

domestic and non-domestic locations as shown in each of the price tables. All prices are

shown and billed in United States (U.S.) currency. Non-domestic services provided as fixed

prices will not be subject to adjustments for currency fluctuations. Non-domestic services

where the non-domestic portion is provided by a foreign carrier on a pass-through basis will

be subject to adjustments for currency fluctuations as the bill for the non-domestic portion is

rendered. X Access for service at non-domestic locations, except as otherwise included in

transport pricing is provided on a pass through basis. The price tables associated with the

“General” service category are for services that are not specific to a service category or apply

to all service categories, e.g. dedicated access price tables apply to all service types.

All prices on a row of a price table carry a “start” date, which is when the prices on that row

become effective. The prices remain in effect through their listed price “stop” date or until

the prices are changed by contract modification. When prices are revised by contract

modification, the newly inserted rows will contain and become effective by their listed start

dates. The pricing rows that are being replaced will carry a price “replaced” date, i.e., the

date the contract modification became effective.

Each of the service categories listed above are further divided into price sub-components. In

general, each service category includes the following sub-components:

Access

Transport

UNI/AAF/Transport De-multiplexing

Features

The total basic service price for a connection will consist of various price sub-components,

with the number and type of sub-component being dependent on the mix of conditions

associated with each connection. The sub-components of a basic service price will vary by

service type and are described in more detail in the individual service category (CSS, SDS,





Effective Date: January 06, 2007DTS, VAS and General) pricing sections. The specific ways in which the service prices

shall be computed are defined in the sections addressing each service category.

7.1.1 Access

Access is defined as the facility-based service arrangements that provide connections

between on-net or off-net locations and their associated points of connection with Sprint’s

POPs. There are two types of access for FTS2001, On-net access and Off-net access. The

type of access that is required is dependent on the location. The following are definitions of

on-net and off-net locations.

On-net locations are locations that have pre-subscribed to one or more services

provided by Sprint on the FTS2001 contract. However, an on-net location must

subscribe to a specific FTS2001 service before receiving that service at that

location. Service to on-net locations may be implemented using either dedicated

or circuit switched access. Domestic on-net access prices depend on the

NPANXX of the customer location and the specific access type used to provide

the connection.

Off-net locations do not subscribe to any services provided by Sprint on the

FTS2001 contract. Service to and from off-net locations is required only if

specified in the individual service description.

Domestic On-net access prices depend on the NPA/NXX or, in selected cases, the building as

identified by the Service Delivery Point (SDP) Identification (ID) Base Code* of the

customer location and the specific access type used to provide the connection. The access

price determined by the SDP ID base code will not be higher than the access price

determined by the NPA/NXX. For any specific access type, all NPA/NXXs served from the

same wire center will have the same access prices. Access prices may change as a result of

wire center changes, additions, deletions, or redefinitions. Access prices for any PSTN

locations or SDPs served from a given wire center will not be increased due to NPA/NXX





Effective Date: January 06, 2007changes, additions, deletions, or redefinitions. Any proposed increase in access prices

resulting from such changes will be subject to a fair and reasonable analysis and approval by

the Government. Sprint will give a minimum of six months notice of such changes,

emergency conditions excepted.

*For evaluation purposes, Sprint will use the list of SDPs provided with the Aggregate Cost

Engine (See RFP section J.8 and L.38.4). For evaluation purposes no other SDPs have

individually priced access. After award, Sprint will replace the provided SDP identification

codes with the appropriate SDP ID Base Codes as soon as these become available.

For on-net access, the pricing information addresses both dedicated and switched access.

Off-net pricing information addresses switched access only. If an individual price is

provided for SDP ID base code, all SDPs with that SDP ID base code will use the individual

SDP ID base code price.

For circuit-switched access, two different sub-components of access pricing apply: usage-

based charges for access, and access feature pricing. UNI charges do not apply for circuit

switched access. The local loop requirements are the responsibility of the user. X. Circuit

switched access on-net and off-net pricing as shown in Tables B.2.2-1 and B.2.2-2, apply to

all domestic service categories that require circuit-switched access.

Pricing for non-domestic dedicated access will be provided on a pass-through basis from the

foreign carrier.

7.1.2 Transport

The transport pricing tables are defined in the individual service sections for CSS, SDS and

DTS. Transport does not apply to the Video Transmission Service, which is a value-added

service. VTS is an application-layer service that uses underlying service(s) for access and

transport.

Each NPANXX is assigned to a designated POP in Table B.8.10-2. Domestic transport is

priced on a mileage basis as the distance between the designated POPs for on-net and off-net





Effective Date: January 06, 2007locations. The price for transport between a domestic location and a non-domestic location or

between a non-domestic location and another non-domestic location is computed on a

country/jurisdiction-to-country/jurisdiction basis. Domestic locations are grouped into five

separately identified regional zones, e.g., United States CONUS, Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto

Rico and Pacific Region including Guam and Northern Marianas Islands. Each region is

treated as a separate country/jurisdiction for pricing purposes.

7.1.3 UNIs

Price tables for UNIs are further defined within the individual service category pricing

sections. UNIs which apply to the use of dedicated access are specified for the service types

that may be connected by means of dedicated access. A UNI charge is applied per SDP;

however, a UNI charge does not apply where the SDP is located at Sprint’s POP. X.

7.1.4 AAFs/Transport Demultiplexing

AAFs may apply when dedicated access is utilized. AAF charges are not specific to an

individual service type but apply to all service categories. They AAFs are further defined in

Section 7.6.1, Dedicated Access.

7.1.5 Features

Features may apply to both access and transport and VAS basic service categories. Features

are defined as a separately priced integral capability of, or an additional enhancement to, a

basic service. Price tables for features are described within the individual service pricing

sections.

7.1.6 Service Initiation and Installation Charges

The service and general pricing elements sections provide specifications and pricing

information regarding service initiation or installation of access, UNIs and features. No

initiation charges or installation charges are applicable for the transition of services provided





Effective Date: January 06, 2007under the current Federal Telecommunications System 2000 (FTS2000) contract for current

Sprint customers or Sprint’s first-tier subcontractors, provided that Sprint incurs no or

minimal costs for the transition. Sprint reserves the right to waive any and all SIC charges

associated with transition of all customers from the current FTS2000 contract.

7.1.7 Locations/Points of Presence

A Point of Presence (POP) is the physical location where Sprint’s transport services and

Sprint’s access services are interconnected and where such interconnections are identified

and managed for operational and billing purposes in the provision of FTS2001 service. A

POP is the demarcation point between access services and Sprint’s transport services. POPs

are the reference points for pricing transport services, many of which are mileage dependent.

Each customer location is associated with a POP based on its geographic location. The

serving NPA/NXX of the location is used as the index to determine the appropriate POP.

Each POP is separately described by its physical location, as required by the individual table

(Tables B.8.10-1, B.8.10-3 and B.8.10-6).

For domestic locations and POPs, all distance measurements are performed using Vertical

and Horizontal (V&H) coordinates. The V&H coordinates associated with a NPANXX of

the serving wire center will be derived from the Bellcore Local Exchange Routing Guide

(LERG) or its successor. After award, Sprint will update and maintain throughout the life of

the contract the cross reference of NPANXXs to wire centers and their associated V&H

coordinates. The updated cross-reference will contain all valid NPANXXs and will conform

to the specifications and format of the ACE2001 data file. In tables and other documents

prepared for the Government, distances will be reported in miles.

All service types, as defined in Table B.1.2-1, that are terminated within the same NPANXX

will be served from the same designated connecting domestic or non-domestic POP for those

service types offered within that NPANXX.





Effective Date: January 06, 2007Domestic POPs - Each on-net or off-net NPANXX has a designated POP. The NPANXX to

POP relationships are contained in Table B-8-10-2. A complete list of Sprint’s domestic

POPs is provided in Table B.8.10-1. X. In the event that a POP is added or deleted, the

government will be given a minimum of 6 months notice of such change, emergency

conditions excepted. Changes in NPANXX to POP relationships due to either NPANXX

definitions or POP changes will not increase the access price levels for services unless

authorized by the government. Increases in transport pricing resulting from such change

will be subject to fair and reasonable analysis and approvals by the Government. X. Non-

domestic POPs for NANP locations and their associated transport pricing are subject to

domestic pricing provisions if they are included in the domestic POP table. VTS service

centers are associated with designated connecting POPs that are otherwise defined for the

pricing of underlying services transport so that the service transport used as the underlying

transmission medium for VTS service can be measured and billed, or be otherwise defined.

Non-Domestic POPs – Sprint’s non-domestic POPs are defined in Table B.8.10-3. These

POPs are provided for informational purposes and only for countries that Sprint offers on an

end-to-end full channel basis. X.

7.2 Circuit Switched Service

CSS provides connectivity on a dial-up basis between Government users, from Government

users to the public at large, and from the public to essential Government services. These

services include the traditional switched voice and toll free services, 900 service and Circuit

Switched Data Service (CSDS).

The service categories defined for CSS are as follows:

Switched Voice Service

Toll Free Service

900 Service






CSS pricing is based on the use of three general pricing components: (1) originating access,

(2) network transport, and (3) terminating access. CSS features and UNIs are priced

separately. Each sub-category is discussed in the following sections.

7.2.1 CSS Access

Domestic Access

A CSS call is priced using one or more components depending on whether the call in on-net

to on-net, on-net to off-net, off-net to on-net or off-net to off-net, the call is domestic or non-

domestic, the call is carried over circuit-switched or dedicated access at either end of the

connection and whether the call utilizes one or more CSS access features. All non-domestic

CSS calls that originate from or terminate at a domestic point will be priced using domestic

access pricing at the domestic end of a call.





Effective Date: January 06, 2007Where dedicated access facilities are used to connect the SDP to Sprint’s designated

connecting POP for connection to CSS transport; the dedicated access prices in Table

B.8.1.1-1 or Table 8.1.1-3 will apply in lieu of the circuit switched basic access service

prices. Reference Section 7.6.1 for a description of dedicated access pricing. Circuit

switched domestic on-net access are NPANXX specific; subject to the restriction stated in

Section B.1.2.1 that all NPA/NXX served from the same wire center have the same access

price. Domestic off-net circuit-switched access prices are postalized and vary only by time

of day. The prices for domestic circuit-switched access are per-call based. All circuit-

switched access call prices will be billed in 6 second increments. A minimum required

number of six second billing increments will not exceed the values shown in the following

table:

Minimum Billing Increments for Usage-Based Billing on Circuit Switched Service Calls

From To Minimum

Increments Per Call

Domestic (on-net or off-net) Domestic (on-net or off-net) One

Domestic (on-net or off-net) Non-domestic on-net Three

Domestic (on-net or off-net) Non-domestic off-net Three

Non-domestic on-net Domestic (on-net or off-net) Three

Non-domestic on-net Non-domestic off-net Three

Non-domestic on-net Non-domestic on-net Five

Non-domestic off-net Domestic (on-net or off-net) Five

Non-domestic off-net Non-Domestic on-net Five





Effective Date: January 06, 2007The price per six second increment for multiples of DS0 equivalent bandwidth selected on a

per call basis within an ISDN or CSS access arrangement will be for specified multiples

(Tables B.2.2-1a and B.2.2-2a). Charges for a domestic call that spans more than one time

period will be split, with the appropriate time period rate at the originating location applied to

each portion of the call.

The steps required to price a CSS call are outlined below:

Originating or Terminating Access – Calls can originate or terminate on-net or off-net.

Calls terminating to on-net locations served by the other FTS2001 network will be completed

by the Public Switched Network and priced as off-net calls. The manner in which the calls

originate/terminate along with the access facility at the SDP dictates which series of rate

tables will be used for pricing. The appropriate steps are provided below:

(1) Determine the appropriate access pricing table based on the access arrangement. The

pricing tables applicable to each type of access arrangement are outlined below:

(3) If the access arrangement is on-net, determine the NPANXX of the

originating/terminating location.

(4) Locate the appropriate price row in the appropriate B-Table based on the following:

On-net Switched Access – NPANXX of originating or terminating location, access

type, price effective dates.

Off-net Switched Access – Access type, price effective dates.





Effective Date: January 06, 2007On-net Dedicated Access – NPANXX or SPD ID Base Code of originating or

terminating location, access type, price effective dates.

(5) Calculate the originating/terminating access price:

Switched Access Price = (Peak Period Rate Per 6 Second * Adjusted

Peak Minutes) + (Off-Peak Period Rate

* Adjusted Off-Peak Minutes)

Adjusted Peak Minutes = Peak call minutes * 10, rounded up to the nearest

integer

Adjusted Off-Peak Minutes = Off-peak call minutes * 10, rounded up to the

nearest integer

Dedicated Access Monthly Price = Monthly-recurring charge from Price Table

B.8.1.1-1 or B.8.1.1-3

Dedicated Access Non-Recurring Price = Service Initiation Charge from Price

Table B.8.1.1-2

Non-Domestic Access

On-Net to On-Net Calls - Prices for non-domestic on-net originating or terminating access

will be provided on a pass-through basis from the foreign carrier.

On-Net to Off-Net Calls – The cost of terminating access at the non-domestic off-net

location is included in the transport price.

Off-Net to On-Net Calls – The cost of originating access at the non-domestic off-net

location is included in the transport price.

Charges for a call to, from, or between non-domestic locations that spans more than one time

period shall have the initial time period rate applied to all portions of the call.





Effective Date: January 06, 20077.2.2 CSS Transport

CSS transport represents the cost for transporting a call over the Sprint network from the

designated POP of the originating location to the designated POP of the terminating location.

CSS transport pricing information is contained in Table B.2.3-1 for domestic transport and

B.2.3-3, B.2.3-4 and B.2.3-6 for non-domestic transport. Table B.2.3-1 is used for the

domestic transport portion of a CSS and is not dependent of the originating or terminating

access arrangement. Non-Domestic calls; however, use different price tables according to

whether the call originates/terminates from an on-net or off-net location.

Fixed prices will be provided from domestic regions to countries where the contractor will

terminate on-net calls. For countries where the contractor offers on-net switched services on

a full channel basis, fixed prices shall be provided to domestic regions from those countries.

For countries where on-net switched service if offered but not on a full channel basis, call

originating in the non-domestic country will be priced on a pass-through basis from the

foreign carrier.

All CSS transport prices will be billed in 6 second increments. A minimum number of

billing increments per call for transport is set to the levels defined in the following table:





Effective Date: January 06, 2007Minimum Billing Increments for Usage-Based Billing on Circuit Switched Service Calls

From To Minimum

Increments Per Call

Domestic (on-net or off-net) Domestic (on-net or off-net) One

Domestic (on-net or off-net) Non-domestic on-net Three

Domestic (on-net or off-net) Non-domestic off-net Three

Non-domestic on-net Domestic (on-net or off-net) Three

Non-domestic on-net Non-domestic on-net Five

Non-domestic on-net Non-domestic off-net Three

Non-domestic off-net Domestic (on-net or off-net) Five

Non-domestic off-net Non-domestic on-net Five

The price per six second increment for multiples of DS0 equivalent bandwidth selected on a

per call basis will be provided per DS0 bandwidth multiple, as specified in Table B.1.2-1.

The steps and corresponding rate tables used in pricing domestic and non-domestic transport

are as follows:

Domestic CSS Transport :

(1) Determine the NPANXX of the originating and terminating locations.

(2) Locate the originating and terminating NPANXX in the NPANXX to POP relationship

Table, B.8.10-2. Obtain the POP id of the designated originating and terminating POPs.

(3) Obtain the Vertical and Horizontal (V&H) coordinates of the designated originating POP

from Table B.8.10-1. The POP id obtained in Step (2) is used to locate the designated

originating POP.





Effective Date: January 06, 2007(4) Obtain the Vertical and Horizontal (V&H) coordinates of the designated terminating POP

from Table B.8.10-1. The POP id obtained in Step (2) is used to locate the designated

terminating POP.

(5) Obtain the difference between the “V” coordinates and the difference between the “H”

coordinates. Note: The difference is always obtained by subtracting the smaller

coordinate from the larger coordinate.

(6) Square each difference obtained in Step (5).

(7) Add the squares of the “V” difference and the “H” difference obtained in Step (6).

(8) Divide the sum of the squares obtained in Step (7) by 10. Round to the next higher

whole number if any fraction is obtained.

(9) Obtain the square root of the result obtained in Step (8). This is the distance in miles

between the two designated POPs. (Fractional miles are considered as whole miles, i.e.

round up).

For example:

The distance in miles between Sprint’s POPs in Kansas City, MO, POP ID 2020 and

Sprint’s POP in Washington, DC, POP ID 3221.

V Coordinate H Coordinate

Kansas City, MO 7027 4202

Washington, DC 5621 1583

Difference 1406 2619

Squared 1,976,836 + 6,859,161 =

8,835,997






8,835,997 = 883,599.7

10

Square root of 883,600 = 940 Miles

(10) Obtain the Service Type ID for the desired service type. The following table outlines the

available service types:

Service Type Service Type

ID No.

Switched Voice Service 0162

Toll Free Service 0134

900 Service 0136

Circuit Switched Data Service - DS0 0137

Circuit Switched Data Service - DS0x2 0138



Circuit Switched Data Service - DS1 0160

(11) From Table B.2.3-1, find the rate corresponding to the appropriate service type

based on the distance in miles calculated in Step (9) and price effective dates.

(12) Calculate the network transport portion of the call:

Network Transport Price = Peak Period Rate Per 6 Second * Adjusted Peak Minutes

+ Off-Peak Period Rate * Adjusted Off-Peak Minutes

Adjusted Peak Minutes = Peak call minutes * 10, rounded up to the nearest integer

Adjusted Off-Peak Minutes = Off-peak call minutes * 10, rounded up to the nearest

integer





Effective Date: January 06, 2007Non-Domestic CSS Transport – is dependent on the access arrangement for the originating

and terminating locations, i.e. On-net or Off-net. All domestic locations are considered On-

net for pricing purposes. Non-domestic calls are classified as outbound, inbound, or non-

domestic-to-non-domestic and are made to, from or between on-net and/or off-net locations.

Outbound refers to calls made from a domestic location to a non-domestic location, inbound

refers to calls made from a non-domestic location to a domestic location, and non-domestic-

to-non-domestic refers to calls made from one non-domestic location to another non-

domestic location.

The following table summarizes the appropriate price table for non-domestic network

transport.

+ Off-Peak Period Rate * Adjusted Off-Peak Minutes

Adjusted Peak Minutes = Peak call minutes * 10, rounded up to the nearest integer

Adjusted Off-Peak Minutes = Off-peak call minutes * 10, rounded up to the nearest

integer

Note: Offpeak pricing does not apply to Table B.2.3-6.

7.2.3 CSS UNIs

In addition to the normal call charges for a CSS call, charges may apply for dedicated access

UNIs for locations utilizing a dedicated access arrangement. CSS UNI pricing information is

contained in Table B.2.2-6. UNI charges are charged on a monthly-recurring and a non-





Effective Date: January 06, 2007recurring basis. The type of UNI is dependent on the payload of the access circuit ordered

by the Government. The following table outlines the available UNIs for CSS.

7.3 Switched Data Service

SDS pricing is based on the use of two general pricing components: (originating and

terminating) access, and transport. SDS features and UNIs are priced separately. Each sub-

category is discussed in the following sections.

Volume discounts are also available by service type based on total monthly billable revenue.

The transport component consists of prices for basic transport service (except IPS) ports, and

for transport features.

The following tables detail the cities that local dial-in is available.

Switched Data Service (SDS) provides both Network Layer services such as PSS and IPS

and Link Layer services such as FRS and ATMS. The following is a brief description of the

services available under the FTS2001 contract.

PSS - This service, based on the X.25 protocol, is the traditional solution to the problem of

consolidating multiple networks using different protocols. It provides reliable end-to-end

connectivity at moderate transmission speeds. PSS is a packet-switched, connection-

oriented, data transmission service at data rates up to DS0.

IPS - IPS supports connectionless service between users (i.e., IP hosts) for execution of

applications based on protocols, such as File Transfer Protocol (FTP), SMTP, HyperText

Transfer Protocol (HTTP), and connection to remote hosts (TELNET). This service provides

the government with the capability for a government-wide intranet, and for access to

extranets and to the global Internet.

FRS - FRS provides a frame-switched, connection-oriented, data transmission service at data

rates up to DS1. FRS provides reliable, high speed connectivity between user locations at

guaranteed performance levels. The flexibility and reliability of the service make it an

attractive alternative to private line networks.

ATMS - ATMS supports the transmission and aggregation of a broad range of user

information, including voice, data, and video via circuit-mode and packet-mode





Effective Date: January 06, 2007transmission. This connection-oriented service provides the highest bandwidth available in

the SDS family and maintains performance for each class of traffic using the service.

7.3.1 SDS Access

Access component (originating or terminating) will consist of monthly and non-recurring

prices for dedicated access, Table B.8.1.1-1 and Table B.8.1.1-3, , for PSS, FRS, IPS, and

ATMS. Where dedicated access facilities are used to connect the SDP to Sprint’s designated

connecting POP; the dedicated access prices in Table B.8.1.1-1 or B.8.1.1-3 shall apply.

Reference Section 7.6.1 of this narrative for a description of dedicated access pricing.

Pricing sub-components for UNIs also apply when dedicated access is utilized for SDS.

For non-local calls, normal CSS originating access and transport charges apply but

terminating access charges do not apply. For local calls no FTS2001 CSS charges apply.

The steps required to price a SDS basic access service are outlined below:

Originating or Terminating Access – The price is for the connection from its originating or

terminating point to the Sprint’s connecting POP that is designated for the origination point

or terminating point. Service can originate or terminate on-net or off-net. The manner in

which the service originates/terminates along with the access facility at the SDP dictates

which series of rate table will be used for pricing. The appropriate steps are provided below:

(1) Determine the appropriate access pricing table based on the access arrangement. The

pricing tables applicable to each type of access arrangement are outlined below:

Access Arrangement Pricing Table

On-net Dedicated Table B.8.1.1-1, Table B.8.1.1-3, Table B.8.1.1-2

(2) Determine the desired Access Type. The access Type will vary based on access

arrangement, i.e. on-net dedicated. The following table outlines the valid access types

based on access arrangement:

7.3.2 SDS Transport

SDS Transport prices are dependent on service type as defined in Table B.1.2-1, i.e. PSS,

IPS, FRS, ATMS. SDS basic service transport pricing is described below for each service

type:

Domestic Transport:

The price for transport is the connection between the designated connecting POPs. In the

case of CONUS domestic transport, the price is insensitive to distance or geographic

location.

PSS – PSS transport is priced in kilobytes and may vary based on peak vs. off-peak time

periods for domestic usage.

IPS – Transport pricing does not apply for IPS.

FRS – FRS transport prices are monthly recurring charges for Permanent Virtual Circuits

(PVC’s) dependent on the Committed Information rate (CIR). PVC pricing is bi-directional.

ATMS – ATMS transport pricing is based on the ATMS Adaptation Layer (AAL) and layer

service category used (e.g., Variable Bit Rate-non real time [VBR-nrt] ], Variable Bit Rate-

real time [VBR-rt], or Constant Bit Rate [CBR]) and certain defined quality of service

attributes for the layer service category used (e.g., the Sustained Cell Rate [SCR]). PVC

pricing for ATMS is bi-directional.

Link Layer Data Service Domestic Transport for both LAN and SNA Class of Service. X

Non-Domestic Transport

The price for transport is the connection between the designated connecting

countries/jurisdictions. The price is based on the originating and terminating

countries/jurisdictions.

PSS – Non-domestic transport is also priced in kilobytes but there is no distinction between

peak and off-peak pricing. Fixed prices are provided for countries where PSS is





Effective Date: January 06, 2007commercially available on a full channel basis. There are no countries where service is

commercially available, but not on full channel basis.

IPS – Transport pricing does not apply for IPS.

FRS – FRS transport prices are monthly recurring charges for Permanent Virtual Circuits

(PVC’s) dependent on the Committed Information rate (CIR), country pair, and port speeds

at each end of the PVC.

Fixed prices are provided for countries where FRS is commercially available. Pricing for half

channel is not applicable to this service.

The following table outlines port and PVC availability as of August 1998. The availability of

ports and PVCs in specific geographic locations is updated frequently based on upgrades in

our Global Frame Relay network.






X

Prices are given for PVCs assuming that the appropriate port speed is available in the

specified country in Table B.3.3-7a.

The steps and corresponding rate tables used in pricing domestic and non-domestic SDS

transport are as follows:

(1) Determine the applicable service sub-category for the desired service type based on Table

B.1.2-1. For example, PSS and IPS are Network Layer and FRS and ATMS are Link

Layer.

(2) Locate the appropriate Service Type ID for the desired service either domestic or non-

domestic. The service type ID based on the following table:

(3) Locate the appropriate B-table for the desired service type for either domestic or non-

domestic service.





Effective Date: January 06, 2007(4) If pricing non-domestic service, locate the appropriate row based on originating country,

terminating country, transport type id, price start date and price stop date.

(5) If pricing domestic service, locate the appropriate row based on transport type id, price

start date and price stop date.

(6) Calculate the transport price based on the following (Refer to Section 7.3.6 for Volume

Discount calculation):

Peak Usage = Number of Peak kilobytes * Peak Usage Rate * Applicable Service

Type Discount

Off-Peak Usage = Number of Off-peak kilobytes * Offpeak Usage Rate *

Applicable Service Type Discount

Peak Kilobytes = Bytes divided by 1,000, rounded up to the nearest integer

Off-Peak Kilobytes = Off-peak bytes divided by 1,000, rounded up to the nearest

integer

Total Monthly Recurring Price = Monthly recurring Price * Number of PVCs *

Applicable Service Type Discount

Sprint will exceed the basic requirements by offering FRS data rates in T1 to DS3 in T1

increments. Pricing will be based on the mandatory price elements for T1 service times a T1

equivalent factor.

7.3.3 SDS Ports

A separate transport port price is applied for all SDS service types; the transport port price is

the only transport charge applicable to IPS. SDS ports may be either usage based when

accessed via switched access or monthly recurring in the case of ports accessed via dedicated

access arrangements. Dial-in calls will incur usage charges for the appropriate dial-in port.

Dial-in capability will be provided for domestic PSS, FRS, and IPS. Dial-in locations will be

considered network terminating locations for call rating purposes. For non-local calls, normal

CSS originating access and transport charges apply, but terminating access charges do not





Effective Date: January 06, 2007apply. For local calls, no FTS2001 CSS charges apply. In all cases, usage charges for the

appropriate dial-in port shall apply. SDS domestic port types are defined in Table B.3.3-1.a

and 3.3-1a OPT below:

Please refer to the table in Section 7.3.2 for current FRS port availability. Prices for FRS

ports in Table b.3.3-2.a are provided assuming that the port speed is available in the specified

country.

The steps employed to calculate the price of a SDS port are as follows:

(a) Determine the desired port type item no. from Table B.3.3-1.a and B.3.3-1a OPT

for domestic ports or B.3.3-2a and B.3.3-2a OPT. for non-domestic ports. Port

types vary by service, switched vs. dedicated access and speed. For FRS and





Effective Date: January 06, 2007ATMS port prices for POPs located in domestic service regions outside the

Continental U.S. are located in Table 3.3-2.a. X X Where commercially available,

country codes for the appropriate off-shore regions are used. X

(1) Locate the appropriate row based on port type, price start date and price stop date.

(2) Calculate the port price as follow. (Refer to Section 7.3.6 for Volume Discount

calculation):

SDS Dedicated Access Port Price = Monthly-recurring price from Price Table B.3.3-1,

Table B.3.3-1 OPT, Table B.3.3-2 or Table B.3.3-2 OPT* number of ports * applicable

volume discount

SDS Switched Access Port Price = 6-second increment price from Price Table B.3.3-1 ,

Table B.3.3-1 OPT, Table B.3.3-2, or Table B.3.3-2 OPT * Adjusted Minutes *

applicable volume discount

Adjusted Minutes = Call minutes * 10, rounded up to the nearest integer

7.3.4 SDS UNIs

In addition to the charges for a SDS dedicated access, charges apply for dedicated access

UNIs for locations utilizing a dedicated access arrangement. UNI charges are charged on a

monthly-recurring and a non-recurring basis. The type of unit is dependent on the payload

of the access circuit ordered by the government and the protocol of the service delivered.

Where DS0 is the payload shown in Table 3.2-7.a and 3.2-7.a OPT, the UNI prices shown

are for a payload of 56 kb/s. Table 3.2-7.a and 3.2-7.a OPT outlines the available UNIs for

SDS.

7.3.6 SDS Volume Discount

Revenue-based volume discounts are provided for SDS services, i.e. PSS, IP, FRS and

ATMS. Discounts are applied based on total monthly undiscounted revenue by service type.

Volume bands are defined as the minimum/maximum ranges of monthly revenue (starting

with $0) that must be achieved to receive each volume discount level. Discounts from Table

B.3.3-8 will be taken before any other applicable discounts. To compute the effective or net

price of SDS services the steps utilized are as follows:

(1) Locate the appropriate discount table, i.e. B.3.3.8 for domestic service or B.3.3.9 for non-

domestic service.

(2) Determine the discount percentage that corresponds to the appropriate volume band. The

percentage is based on the total domestic or non-domestic billable monthly revenue for

SDS transport, ports, UNIs, and transport features for each individual service, i.e. ATMS,

IPS, FRS, and PSS.

(3) Calculate the net price for SDS transport, UNIs, features and ports as follows:

Domestic or Non-domestic Transport Price * (1-Service type volume discount) +

Domestic or Non-domestic UNI Price * (1- Service type volume discount) +

Domestic or Non-domestic Transport Feature Price * (1- service type volume

discount) +

Domestic or Non-domestic Port Price * (1- Service type volume discount) =

Total Discounted Domestic or non-domestic Price by Service
