Welcome to the SS7 Point Code Administration Home Page for the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) area. Point codes are 24 bit binary codes which are needed for all signaling points using the SS7 (Signaling System 7, also known as Common Channel Signaling) network. They identify network nodes in order that the SS7 network can route calls properly. Point codes consist of 9 digits. The first three digits represent the network, the second three the cluster, and the third three the member. Large networks start at network 254 and are decrementing. Small networks are assigned from network code 002, and point code blocks are assigned from network code 005.

The SS7 Point Code Administration Guidelines are maintained by T1S1ATIS - PTSC.

Telcordia Technologies d/b/a iconectiv is responsible for the administration and assignment of national SS7 point codes in the United States and other North American Numbering Plan (NANP) countries on behalf of the ATIS - PTSC. For international point codes, please contact Cathy Hsu at the FCC on 202-418-2114 or via email chsu@fcc.gov.
