ABSTRACT:
A system and method for processing electronic data and voice audio calls providing an interLATA (Local Access Transport Area) fast connect routing scheme that bypasses an interexchange carrier. An interLATA communication circuit is established between a first switch in a first LATA and a second switch in a second LATA. The step of routing a call from the first switch to the second switch is performed. The call is routed to an interexchange carrier if the interexchange carrier is not a subscriber to a fast connect service. The step of bypassing the interexchange carrier is performed if the interexchange carrier is a subscriber to the fast connect service. Upon determining that the interexchange carrier is a subscriber to the fast connect service, the call is directly routed from the first switch located in the first LATA to the second switch located in the second LATA without utilizing interexchange carrier trunks or switches.
