Provider role(s): Voice service provider
STIR/SHAKEN implementation: Role Implementation
Voice service provider Partial
Overall Partial
Exemption rules: NSC is eligible for the continuing extension of the STIR/SHAKEN implementation deadline as a small voice service provider (§64.6304 (a)(2) that has non-IP portions within its network §64.6304(d). NSC provides local service to fewer than 100,000 voice subscriber lines. A portion of customers are served on the non-IP portions of NSC’s network which relies on technology that cannot initiate, maintain, carry, process, and terminate SIP calls. Consistent with §64.6303(a)(1), NSC is ready to upgrade its entire network to allow for the initiation, maintenance, and termination of SIP calls and fully implement the STIR/SHAKEN framework. However, the NSC non-IP network is connected to carriers that do not support IP connectivity; therefore, NSC cannot upgrade those Non-IP portions of its network to IP connectivity. Additionally, to meet the non-IP network criteria for the continuing STIR SHAKEN extension (§ 64.6303 (a)(2)), Ninestar is a member of NTCA. NTCA participates on the ATIS PTSC Non-IP Call Authentication Task Force working group which developed the (ATIS Solutions) non-IP call authentication solutions. NTCA is serving as NineStar’s third-party representative on the ATIS PTSC Non-IP Call Authentication Task Force working group.
