[asterisk-users] Becoming a CLEC

[eherr]

But what is the correct physical setup of a CLEC.

Do you get rack space at a carrier hotel and equipment in there?

Do you get rack space at the local ILEC CO?; which is Verizon here.

What are the types of voice platforms used by CLECs?

Thanks,
--E

There are clever ways to be a CLEC, and keen reasons for becoming so.  But "cheaper stuff" ain't one of them.
