REGULATORY SERVICES FOR ISPs

Unicorn Communications can help Internet Service Providers (ISPs) form a competitive local exchange carrier (CLEC) affiliate. There are numerous business reasons to become an ISP, including:

• Recognition of reciprocal compensation from interconnecting LECs for traffic terminated on the CLEC network.
• Cost-savings realized by self-providing access services. An ISP with a CLEC affiliate can achieve significant cost savings by purchasing access from a LEC. CLECs may purchase access at resale rates, by purchasing unbundled network elements, or through facilities-based interconnection.
• Additional revenue realized by providing dedicated and dial-in access lines to customers.
• Movement toward becoming a full-service communications company with a range of long distance, local, and Internet service offerings.

Unicorn Communications is adept at helping ISPs obtain CLEC status in domestic and emerging international countries.
