Thank you everyone. I did some more reading and digging up of my old memories. I now think that this 局 is most often referred to as "central office." When you are talking about the area covered, it can be an "exchange area." So, 自局内 will be "within exchange" or "intra-office" as Narcis says. Any telecom guru to confirm?

Yeah, I know how it goes. :)
Yuki Okada (asker) Jul 5, 2007:
Thanks, Casey. This is coming through an agency, and I can ask a question through the agency. But it seems that they are in hurry and there is not enough time to go back and forth. I will add my note to my translation, unless someone at ProZ comes with a definitive answer!

I did a similar translation one time. The end client usually has a preferred translation (sorry, I don't remember what I was asked to use). Are you in a position to make an inquiry?

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks Narcis, Ruth, Casey and VN. I used to work for a major telecom equipment manufacturer and this brought back some of my old memories of what I was overhearing (this wasn't my own area). "

inside own station

Hi Yuki, I know this sounds very strange, but I got a term base sent to me to use in a translation from Ishida Taiseisha and they had translated "自局" as "own station". Their terminology usually relates to IT, so if yours is about telephone systems, it may not apply. I just wanted to give you what I had in case you could adapt it somehow to suit your need.
