	FindProfit.com Profitmap: Court Approves CLEC's FASTNET Purchase
		CLEC's bid is worth $8.5 million and the assumption of certain liabilities and was approved by the U.S. bankruptcy court of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
		CLEC said it expects to see "the immediate positive impact on its bottom line" from this distressed asset deal.
		While CLEC likely won't retain all of the new revenue and customers provided by this deal, this asset purchase is a good example of how CLEC can use its healthy balance sheet to scoop up distressed telecom assets at attractive prices.

		Important to CLEC telecommunications networking is the availability of unbundled network elements or UNEs (through a collocation arrangement).
		With the local loop, CLECs will be able to connect their switches with the ILEC's switches, thus giving them access to ILEC customers.
		CLEC status is very beneficial, especially for ISPs, who may easily get access to the copper loops and other switching elements necessary to provide xDSL services.

		CLEC use of this strategy raises questions about the extent to which CLECs truly are subject to competition in their provision of access service.
		CLECs have, in the past, set their rates without having to conform to the regulatory standards imposed on ILECs, and this Commission has twice ruled, in essence, that a CLEC’s rate is not per se unreasonable merely because it exceeds the ILEC rate.
		For example, CLECs shall be permitted to set their tariffed rates so that they receive revenues equivalent to those that the ILECs receive through the presubscribed interexchange carrier charge (PICC), to the extent that it survives in the wake of our CALLS Order.

		However, the primary flaw in the CLEC business plans was that they underestimated the obstructionist behavior of the Bell monopolies and did not take into account the billions of extra dollars that was needed to be spent to connect to the local phone networks, or to fulfill orders and installations.
		The CLECs are the mostly small entrepreneurial firms who have attempted to compete for voice and data services (including DSL) based on the laws that were created as part of the Telecom Act of 1996.
		CLECs received higher marks from their customers with respect to customer loyalty, being in touch with customer needs, timely installation of service, and professionalism of customer service staff.

		CLEC will notify NEVADA as promptly as possible upon discovery of resend requirements if a pack or entire dataset must be replaced due to pack rejection, damage in transit, dataset name failure, etc.

	ISP Planet - Fixed Wireless - Business - The Wireless CLEC
		I have yet to find a CLEC that doesn't have an attorney on staff to pick and choose what issues they want to go after and what issues can be dismissed.
		My fear with CLEC status is that after hiring an attorney and spending perhaps $10-15,000, we would be 'addicted' to our attorney thereafter.
		There is a lot to consider when becoming a CLEC to save money; not just the license and paperwork, but the staff and the expenses needed to support such an operation.

	Telecom Decision CRTC 2003-53
		In ARC et al.'s submission, a wireless CLEC should be required to comply fully with the equal access obligations established by Decision 97-8.
		In Order 2000-831, the Commission concluded that a wireless CLEC should provide equal access in respect to MTCs since the long distance charges are caused and payable by the subscriber roaming outside the subscriber's home exchange.
		On the question of whether wireless CLECs should continue to be required to provide information for the ALI database, the parties who commented on this issue acknowledged that there were problems with the accuracy of wireless subscriber records and with the availability of customer data for many wireless subscribers.

	How to become a CLEC
		Before becoming a CLEC it is recommended that you have a good telecom lawyer and a telecom technical consultant.
		If however the CLEC is going after business or residential traffic, it may want to use two-way trunk groups and share the cost with the ILCE, thus lowering the number of switch ports.
		That is a shame, because once the CLEC has a switch it could be used to generate as much revenue as possible.

	CLEC 2000 Report - Market Research Report
		While the number of "CLECs" has been estimated to be as high as several thousand, most of these entities have simply received some form of certification to provide local service.
		Building a CLEC is a costly proposition, especially when a new carrier does not have the money and power of an ILEC behind it.
		As companies build their networks, the buzzword has been "convergence." CLECs have been at the forefront of recognizing that building two distinct voice and data networks can be a costly endeavor.

	clec - carrier access billing system - information about telecom billing
		CLECs (Competitive Local Exchange Carriers) that lease facilities from the incumbent local company and do not own telecom facilities are called UNE-Ps (from Unbundled Network Element Platform).
		Before 1996, the CLECs were at a disadvantage in the construction of tariff rates because they would be putting in all new facilities to provide service to the subscribers.
		The Telecommunications Act of 1996 gave CLECs a big boost by mandating that the ILECs lease their facilities to the CLECs, allowing the CLECs to get into business immediately on a pay-as-you-go basis.

	LEC vs. CLEC
		Avoid the need to run a connection via the CLEC to a regional Bell operating company and then to your ISP.
		Some CLECs have their own copper and/or fiber facilities, while others actually rent the lines from the LEC and resell them to you.
		Consider the CLEC option only if it has its own wiring independent of the LEC, its pricing is less and the reliability/quality of its service is at least equal to the current LEC.

		CLEC - a Whatis.com definition - see also: competitive local exchange carrier
		In the United States, a CLEC (competitive local exchange carrier) is a telephone company that competes with the already established local telephone business by providing its own network and switching.
		The term distinguishes new or potential competitors from established local exchange carriers (LECs) and arises from the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which was intended to promote competition among both long-distance and local phone service providers.

	U.S. Business and Residential CLEC Strategies
		Access to local, long distance, and Internet is a part of the bundle for residential markets, but CLECs need to focus on development and deployment of advanced services such as voice over Internet protocol (VoIP), especially with the phasing out of unbundled network element platform (UNE-P).
		CLECs are expected to enjoy huge demand for their services from the business services sector, which includes commercial enterprises and wholesale segments.
		Several CLECs owe their success in the enterprise segment to their tactic of targeting customers as well as wholesale buyers through their own facilities for fiber, switches, and private networks.

		According to some estimates, a typical CLEC would pay one-time fees of around $60,000 for 100 square feet of space in a baby Bell central office.
		This meant that even before it signed up a single customer, the CLEC was spending around $21 million to get its co-location facility in shape.
		Most CLECs didn’t have a choice, because no would want to do business with small operations like theirs unless they provided service on par with the likes of Verizon and SBC Communications.
