It was one of the United States regional telephone companies that were created as a result of the breakup of AT&T. They are allowed to compete for long distance telephone traffic under certain circumstances. RBOCs are generally in competition for digital data and internet traffic with wireless service providers and cable TV companies. ILEC is short for incumbent local exchange carrier. IT is a telephone company that was providing local service when the Telecommunications Act of 1996 was enacted. They are in contradistinction to CLEC. GTE was the second largest ILEC after “The Baby Bells” but has since been absorbed into Verizon. CLEC stands for competitive local exchange carrier. IT is a telecommunications provider company competing with other, already established carriers. CLECs have evolved from the competitive access providers that began to offer private line and special access services in competition with the ILECs beginning in 1985. MSO is short for multiple-system operator. This is an operator of multiple cable or direct-broadcast satellite television systems. Though in the strictest sense any cable company that serves multiple communities is an...

...NT1310 Week 2 – Unit 2 Assignment 1 Service Provider Types There are five different types of telecommunication types to date. First of which is RBOC – (regional bell operating company) which was a telephone company created as a result of the breakup of AT&T. The seven original regional Bell companies were Ameritech, Bell Atlantic, BellSouth, NYNEX, Pacific Bell, Southwestern Bell, and US WEST. The reason why this was so important was because these companies are what provided local telephone service while AT&T provided the long distance phone service. These are what made up the Local Exchanges or the LEC’s. ILEC or incumbent local exchange carrier was a telephone provider that provided local service prior to the telecommunications act of 1996. These play a major role because these carriers are what own the local loops/exchange and facilities in that area. CLEC’s are the exact same thing except they are the competitor to the ILEC’s but provided their own networking and switches for local service. MSO or Multi system Operator – is owner of multiple cable and satellite television systems. This ties into what an ISP is. An ISP is simply and Internet service provider that provides a mean for accessing the internet. MSO is majorly known for being cable companies, because of this cable companies are providing internet to cable customers (usually as bundles with their plan). They work within each other because they...

...Tomalika Thompson March 28, 2015 NT1310/ Thursday Evening Unit 2 Assignment 1 Service Provider Types RBOCS also known as regional bell operating companies is the term to better define the seven companies spun off from AT&T in 1984. The initial seven were Ameritech, BellSouth, Bell Atlantic, Nynex, Southwestern Bell, Pacific Telesis and US West. RBOCS provides a local loop services to most of the United States by functioning as local exchange carriers, while AT&T was left to provide long distance carrier services and to function as an interior exchange carrier. The Telecommunications Act of 1996 allowed RBOCs and independent LECs to compete with existing IXCs for long-distance carrier business, allowed mergers, and essentially opened up the telecommunications market to all kinds of companies, including cable television companies. Of the seven original RBOCs, only five remain today. ILEC also known as incumbent local exchange carrier is a telephone company that provided local services when the Telecommunications Act 1996 was enacted. ILEC held the regional monopoly on landline service before the market was opened to competitive local exchange carriers, or the corporate successor of such a firm. ILEC has been absorbed into Verizon, an RBOC. In some areas, an independent telephone company is responsible for providing local telephone exchange services in a specified geographic area. CLEC also known as competitive local exchange carrier is a telephone...

...Brenda Deni NT1310: Physical Networking Unit 2 Assignment 1 3/30/2014 Service Provider Types * RBOCS: Regional Bell Operating Company Service * Regional Bell operating company (RBOC) is a term describing one of the U.S. regional telephone companies (or their successors) that were created as a result of the breakup of American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T, known also as the Bell System or "Ma Bell") by a U.S. Federal Court consent decree on December 31, 1983. The seven original regional Bell operating companies were Ameritech, Bell Atlantic, BellSouth, NYNEX, Pacific Bell, Southwestern Bell, and US WEST. It is important in telecommunications because RBOCs are generally in competition for digital data and Internet traffic with wireless service providers and cable TV companies. RBOCs are gradually making available new telephone carrier technologies such as ISDN and DSL. * ILEC: Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier * Is a local telephone company in the United States that was in existence at the time of the breakup of AT&T into the Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOCs), also known as the "Baby Bells." The ILEC is the former Bell System or Independent Telephone Company responsible for providing local telephone exchange services in a specified geographic area. ILECs compete with competitive local exchange carriers (CLEC). When referring to the technical communities ILEC is often used just to mean a telephone provider. * CLEC: Competitive...

...11th, 2014 NT1310 Mr. Amos Unit 9 Exercise 1 Light Source and Components-Definitions 1. Forward Biased LED: A bias voltage that is applied to a pn-junction in the direction that causes a large current flow; used in some semiconductor diode circuits. 2. Incoherent Light: Light in which the electric and magnetic fields of photons are completely random in orientation. Incoherent light is typically emitted from light bulbs and LEDs. 3. Laser: Acronym for light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. The laser produces a coherent source of light with a narrow beam and a narrow spectral bandwidth (about 2cm). Lasers in fiber optics are usually solid-state semiconductor types. Lasers are used to provide the high-powered, tightly controlled light wave lengths necessary for high-speed, long-distance optical fiber transmissions. 4. Output Pattern: A setting that selects the output pattern for comparison outputs. This enables outputs for changes in levels rather than just upper/lower limit comparisons to set value. It can be set according to the control applications. Note: The settings must be as follows for correct zone outputs. 5. Output Power: The useful signal or power delivered by a circuit or device. 6. Modulation Speed: (1) Coding of information onto the carrier frequency. Types of modulation include amplitude modulation (AM), frequency modulation (FM), and phase modulation (PM). (2) When light is emitted...

...important to be aware of what servers are Global Catalog servers, especially if you have more than one domain and even if only one domain, they will be prefered by applications like Exchange server. It is recommended to place the forest roles on one Domain Controller (DC) and the domain roles on another server. If not all Domain Controllers are Global Catalog servers, it is also important to place the infrastructure master on a server that is NOT a Global Catalog server. Recommended Best Practice setup of FSMO roles. Domain Controller #1 Place the two forest roles on this server. * Schema Master * Domain Master Domain Controller #2 Place the domain roles on this server. * RID Master * Infrastructure Master * PDC Emulator If more domains exist in the forest, place the domain roles on a server in theese domains like Domain Controller #2 Global Catalog configuration.
