In response to an opposition to its motion for confidential treatment of some of the information in its proposal to the FCC, Vonage has submitted a public copy that does not contain any redactions. This copy identifies the specific LATAs in which Vonage will seek to obtain direct access to numbering resources and the number and types of resources to be requested.
Specifically, Vonage will undertake its trials in the Conyers Rate Center in the Atlanta Georgia LATA, the Boston Rate Center in the Eastern Mass LATA, and the Phoenix Rate Center in the Phoenix Arizona LATA. The maximum number of numbers to be ported in each rate center will be 50,000, 37,000, and 33,000, respectively.
This chart indicates the maximum number of directly-accessed numbers Vonage proposes to
assign to end-user customers as new numbers in each Rate Center:
