Cox Communications will pay Qwest Communications about $2.2 million and could be further fined by the Arizona Corporation Commission after Cox's alleged unauthorized use of Qwest customer landline connections at apartment complexes in Arizona.

A final decision on the fine will be reached at a hearing in late July.
