		As the RBOCs meet the requirements of Section 271 (c) (2) (B) of the 1996 telecommunications act, they are in a position to aggressively compete in the LD data services market.
		RBOCs entering the LD data services have a choice between two types of multi-service edge devices: WAN switches, based on an ATM control plane, or service edge routers, based on an IP-control plane.
		As a result, RBOCs that want to offer higher speed data services to customers may find that their WAN switches are incapable of growing with customer demand.

		But despite their state-regulated monopolies, the RBOCs were unhappy with the line-of-business restrictions, and persistently pushed courts, regulators, and elected officials for authority to enter competitive markets.
		RBOCs (and some state regulators) propose that local access competitors should pay the same excessive terminating charge as long distance carriers, or at least pay termination charges that compensate the RBOCs for the cost of capital investments.
		The RBOCs respond that state regulation entitles them to recover the average, historical costs of their existing networks, and that it is especially inappropriate to divine the marginal costs of some hypothetical best-practice technology.

	Insight Research - The RBOCs and Long Distance 1997—2002 Market Research Report (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Differences in RBOC strategies include the share of their business in toll, the volume of potential long distance originating in their regions, and the distribution of it in terms of intraLATA and intrastate geography.
		The RBOC dilemma is that they are not ready for the profit stress that a real price war with the IXCs would require; although the SBC-Pacific Telesis and Bell Atlantic-NYNEX mergers came about, in part, to better prepare for that possibility.
		RBOCs' strategies differ in the degree to which they value retaining what they have as a means to slow the onset of local competition, versus seeking new revenue from long distance.

		An RBOC can enter the long distance market in its region when it chooses to take the steps necessary to meet the section 271 checklist and the public interest standard under the Telecom Act.
		An RBOC is a precluded competitor in long distance, but it has in its own hands the capability to lift the terms of preclusion.
		This experience and other evidence suggests that one could reasonably expect that the in-region RBOC will garner in a fairly short period of time roughly 20-30% of the long distance market when it chooses to do what is necessary in order to enter that market.

		A spokesman for SBC says no one is forcing people to buy their broadband access from his company; but, in a number of cases it's the RBOC way or the highway.
		Recall, now, how hard the RBOCs have worked and how much money they've spent in the mostly successful attempt to deny competitors access to the networks that they built during the decades when they (or their predecessor AT&T) were regulated monopolies.
		To use the lack of competition as leverage to force consumers to pay for a service that they don't want in order to get one they do was called "tying" in the Microsoft anti-trust case (which the Feds actually won).

		For example, it is estimated that in Texas SBC Communications Inc. (www.sbc.com) has converted 35 percent of the state's access lines to its own long-distance service after less than two years.
		The customer segment being penetrated by the RBOCs is not the subject of active retention efforts by the IXCs, so the rapid growth in numbers of long-distance subscribers by the RBOCs does not provide any indication that they have learned how to compete.
		The firm also found that because the RBOCs are having success only with low-usage customers, sale of the long-distnace units of the IXCs may be accelerated and the asking price increased.

		When the RBOC does have an opportunity for reciprocal entry into the long distance market, contingent upon its willingness to offer a certain portion of its network, it may find it optimal to lease its capacity to competitors.
		Confronted with the absence of incentives on the part of the RBOC to lease its capacity to competitors, the LDCs end up making significant investments in their own networks, especially if they expect that such large investments will have favorable consequences at the stage when access fees are negotiated.
		When the RBOC does have an opportunity for reciprocal entry into the long distance market, contingent upon its willingness to offer a certain portion of its network, it may find it optimal to lease its capacity to competitors, provided that the extent of competition in the long distance market is sufficiently moderate.
