Competitive Local Exchange Carriers (CLECs) are going through an extraordinary evolution. Competition from the Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier, other CLECs, Cable Companies, and VoIP Service Providers is forcing CLECs to adapt by evolving their underlying network. More and more CLECs are using IP technology in new and existing markets.

To stay competitive, more and more CLECs are turning to Bandwidth. Our comprehensive, integrated portfolio includes nationwide network origination and termination services as well as 9-1-1 services to meet regulations established by the State PUCs and the FCC. Unlike Big Telecom, Bandwidth rollouts are characterized by low upfront capital expenditures, and deliver exceptionally competitive rates. For example, Bandwidth offers origination and termination with 100% geographic redundancy and real-time provisioning through an intuitive GUI. Bandwidth delivers the most accurate lVR and live operator directory assistance and white page listing, in addition to CNAM delivery and LIDB updates. Bandwidth’s 9-1-1 products are recognized as the industry’s most reliable, FCC-compliant emergency services offering, with 99% address acceptance and 24/7 staffed call center support.

As CLECs migrate from a traditional TDM network to an IP network, Bandwidth provides a step-by-step migration path through which CLECs will be able to bridge the gap from their static infrastructure to IP-based, nomadic 9-1-1 services. Bandwidth’s ALI services integrate seamlessly with any carrier’s legacy system and provides real-time address validation against multiple data sources, auto-correction, and managed ALI database population. Bandwidth also provides CLECs with a dynamic validation resource. Our complete LEC ALI record management enables CLECs to continue routing calls across their legacy networks.

Bandwidth is the partner of choice for CLECs that face stiff competition in their current markets, are entering new markets and are evolving from a traditional network architecture to a nomadic, IP-based infrastructure.
