CARY-RTP prefixes in area code 919
NANPA records 11 assigned NXX blocks to rate center CARY-RTP in area code 919, 1.4% of the 781 blocks assigned in the code. A rate center is the billing geography a block is allocated to – NANPA truncates the name to ten characters, so read it as a NANPA label rather than a town. 7 holders hold those blocks, the largest being PAETEC ITEL, LLC (3), CENTURYLINK COMMUNICATIONS LLC - NC (2), BELLSOUTH TELECOMM INC DBA SOUTHERN BELL TEL & TEL (2). 7 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots. The same rate center name also appears in area code 984 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
