1086 Shared Speed Calling

Shared Speed Calling will permit an ESP's clients to access a speed calling list
and to call an ESP by dialing only one (or two) digit(s) instead of seven or ten
digits.  The ESP controls the speed calling list and determines which telephone
numbers that the clients will be able to access via shared speed calling as well
as the abbreviated code assigned to each number.  The ESP must order the service
from the BOC before an ESP client can have access to the shared speed calling
list.  This is due to a technological requirement of the service design that 
requires that each ESP's client's line be associated in the switch software with
the ESP-established list.  

This service differs from Speed Calling in that it allows multiple customers 
(ESP clients) to easily and conveniently access their ESPs without the need for
each ESP client to individually subscribe to Speed Calling on their line.  Speed
Calling is unique to individual customer lines and the telephone numbers 
associated with each abbreviated code on the list are determined by the 
individual subscriber to the service.  As with Speed Calling, Shared Speed 
Calling is available using either one or two digit abbreviated codes.  One digit
allows one to eight abbreviated codes while two digit allows one to thirty 
abbreviated codes.

FEATURE OPERATION:
1. To call any of the directory numbers assigned to a Shared Speed Call list the
   ESP or their clients perform the following operations:
   a. Listen for dial tone.
   b. Dial the one or two digit Shared Speed Call code assigned to the desired
      directory number or destination.  After a four-second pause, the call is
      processed.  (Callers from Touch-Tone telephones can avoid the four-second
      pause by dialing # after the Speed Call code.)

2. To change any numbers or to add a number to the Shared Speed Call list, the
   following operations are performed BY THE ESP from their line:
   a. Listen for dial tone.
   b. Dial the applicable Shared Speed Call change code (typically three or four
      digits).
   c. After receipt of second dial tone, dial the Shared Speed Call code that is
      changing or being added and then dial the new directory number associated
      with the Shared Speed Call code.  (If a fast busy tone is encountered the
      action must be repeated because the change did not occur.)

TECHNOLOGICAL AND FEATURE INTERACTION CONSIDERATIONS:
1. Only the ESP can control (i.e., change or add to) the list.  The ESP must 
   have an access line in the Central Office switch where the Shared Speed Call
   list is established.  All clients must be in this same Central Office switch.

2. This feature is available to POTS subscribers in the following central office
   switches:

Switch Type			1A ESS	5ESS
Earliest Generic Release	1AE8A	5E2(2)

3. The capability may be limited to certain POTS classes of service.  
   It is generally available to Centrex subscribers in all types of Central
   office switches offering Centrex service.

4. The maximum number of digits in the telephone number assigned to the Shared
   Speed Call code is 15 in the 1A ESS and 32 in the 5ESS.

5. Multiline subscribers can have Shared Speed Calling on each line if desired.

6. Shared Speed Calling can be used in conjunction with Three-Way Calling or
   Three-Way Call Transfer if the subscriber wishes to add to an established
   call someone who is on their Shared Speed Call list.

7. Subscribers with Shared Speed Calling (one-digit) can also have Speed Calling
   (two-digit) or Speed Calling (thirty number) on the same line.  Subscribers 
   with Shared Speed Calling (two-digit) can also have Shared Speed Calling 
   (one-digit) OR Speed Calling (eight number) on the same line.
