Jitter
Jitter is the delay that occurs between 2 packets or Ethernet frames that are traversing the network.
Jitter is calculated as the delay variance ofthe packets transported across the network or the delta
of delay between two consecutive packets. It is measured between two endpoints, and will consist
of measuring the time between a set of packets. Jitter is measured by averaging sample
measurements taken during a 30 day period between network terminating equipment to which the
customer ports are attached when the Optical Metro network is available.
Latency
Latency is the amount of time necessary for a typical frame to traverse the network. Latency is
calculated as the measurement of time taken for a customer frame to go from one end of the network
(origination point) to the other end (termination point). The measurement will consist of measuring
the time it takes to "ping" or travel from the origination to termination ports for the connection in
question. Latency is measured by averaging sample measurements taken during a 30 day period
between network terminating equipment to which the customer ports are attached when the Optical
Metro network is available.

Packet Deliverv Rate (PDR)
Packet Delivery Rate (PDR) is a measurement of the actual amount of useful and non-redundant
information that is transmitted or processed from end-to-end across the network. It is a function
of bandwidth, error performance, congestion and other factors. PDR is expressed as a percentage
of Ethernet frames offered to the network that successfully traverse the network, end-to-end
within the CIR, and within a 30 day period. PDR is calculated as the total number of effective
Ethernet frames, per port, that successfully traverse the network divided by the total number of
effective Ethernet frames, per port, offered to the network within a 30 day period. Those frames
that violate the maximum range will be excluded from the calculation. PDR is measured by
averaging sample measurements taken during a 30 day period from network terminating
equipment to network terminating equipment to which the customer ports are attached when the
OPTICAL METRO network is available.
Optical Metro Descriptions
Optical Metro Service is an optically switched data service which allows for versatile scalability
and flexibility over an Ethernet network provided by the Company. Optical Metro Service allows
businesses to interconnect two or more customer locations within a Metropolitan Area Network
(MAN) as if they were segments on the same LAN using packet-based switching technologies.
Connections at the customer premises are made using Native Ethernet interfaces and traverse the
MAN over fiber facilities. Optical Metro Service provides dedicated bandwidth from 5 Mbps up
to 1 Gbps.
Customers connect to Optical Metro Service via one of the following standard connections, as
requested by the customer:
- 10/1 00 Base T (100 Mbps)
- Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Base SX, 1000 Base LXlLH or 1000 Base zXr)
Customers may connect any two or more locations together, as long as they are in the same

connections available in the following configurations:
- Point-to-point
- Point-to-multipoint, or
- Multipoint -to-multipoint
Optical Metro Service includes the connection from the customer s premise to the Ethernet
network, a port on the Ethernet network, a Committed Information Rate (CIR), and Ethernet
Virtual Connections (EVe's). Ethernet Virtual Connections (EVC's) are logical connections that
establish a logical path for customer traffic between two customer locations. A portion of the
CIR is assigned to each EVC to establish how much bandwidth each path should have.
CIR is inclusive of allowances for overhead within the Ethernet network. If a customer orders
Gbps of CIR on a single port, the Company reserves the right to use up to 10% of the bandwidth
for traffic management
2.1 Service Configurations
A. Basic: The Optical Metro Basic service configuration provides the customer a
switched, logical point-to-point or point-to-multipoint connection between customer
locations, using a physical connection to the network, and virtual connections through
the Optical Metro network.

A. Silver: The applications best suited for this Grade of Service are general data
applications with more tolerance for delay and/or those that are lower in priority. This Grade of
Service is the appropriate selection for general data traffic since it tolerates bursting and
time-varying traffic. The service parameters associated with this Grade of Service are Packet
Delivery Rate (PDR) and Latency. Packet Delivery Rate is at least 99.5% of total traffic from
source Network Terminating Equipment (NTE) to the destination NTE to which the customer
port is attached. Latency is limited to a delay across a connection of no more than 27 ms (54 ms
roundtrip) one-way end-to-end within the Company s network for packets 1500 bytes or less.
B. Gold: This Grade of Service supports applications that require minimal loss and low
latency variation Gitter). Data in this Grade of Service will be provisioned in a priority queue
indicating that it is delay sensitive. The service parameters associated with this Grade of Service
are Packet Delivery Rate (PDR), Latency and Jitter. Packet Delivery Rate is at least 99.9% of
total traffic from source Network Terminating Equipment (NTE) to the destination NTE to which
the customer port is attached. Latency is limited to a delay across a connection of no more than
18 ms (36 ms roundtrip) one-way end-to-end within the Company s network for packets 1500
bytes or less. Jitter is limited to less than 12 ms one-way end-to-end within the Company

Any type of Customer Network Management functionality is not included in SLAs.
For Basic Plus multipoint-to-multipoint service, the Company will use controls to limit
the amount of multicast and broadcast traffic to protect the Optical Metro network against traffic
storms. The maximum throughput of multicast traffic will be set at 1 Mbps per customer port
while the maximum throughput of broadcast traffic will be set at 200 packets per second per port.
Packets dropped by traffic controls will be excluded from SLA calculations. The Company
recommends that customers enable controls for multicast, broadcast and unknown unicast traffic
within the customer network(s).
Data exiting the network through the customer ports are excluded from SLA calculations
to the extent that it exceeds the CIR for those ports.

10 The responsibility of the Company shall be limited to furnishing the Optical Metro
network. Subject to this responsibility, the Company shall not be responsible for the through
transmission of signals generated by CPE or for the quality of, or defects in, such transmission or
the rejection of signal by CPE. The Company shall not be responsible for installation, operation
maintenance or adapting Optical Metro to the technological requirements of specific CPE. In
addition, the Company shall not be responsible to the customer if changes in any of the
equipment, operations or procedures of the Company used in the provisioning of Optical Metro
render any facilities provided by the customer obsolete; or require modification or alteration of
such equipment or system; or otherwise affect its use or performance, provided the Company has
met all applicable information disclosure requirements otherwise required by law.
11 Customers will be permitted to move from a 10/1 00 Base T to a Gigabit Ethernet
interface option (staying within the Basic or Basic Plus Connection, or moving from the Basic to
the Basic Plus Connection), however the Nonrecurring Charge associated with the new Gigabit
Ethernet Connection will apply. However, should a customer simply wish to move from Basic to
Basic Plus (without any change to the interface option; for example, retaining the 10/1 00 Base T
interface), only the Service Order Change Charge will apply. See Rates and Charges following.
5.3 Optical Connection
The Optical Connection provides for the physical connection between the customer s premise and
the serving wire center. This is comprised of a transport component, interface component and a
port connection component Several interface protocols are available: 10/1 00 Base T and Gigabit
Ethernet (1000 Base SX, 1000 Base LX/LH or 1000 Base ZX).
5.3.Committed Information Rate (CIR)
CIR provides a committed level of transmission (or bandwidth) to the Connection. The customer
can select a CIR from 5 Mbps to 1 Gbps per connection. The CIR is shared among one or more
Ethernet Virtual Connections (EVCs), which provide a logical point-to-point connection between
two customer locations.
In addition, there are three optional rate elements which may apply to OPT -MAN, depending
on the customer s configuration: Repeater, Ethernet Virtual Connections (EVe) and Additional

5.3.Repeater
For those customers who are located outside normal transmission parameters, or who are served by
a Serving Wire Center that is not equipped for OPTE-MAN Service, service can be provided using
a repeater. An engineering study will be completed to ensure transmission parameters can be met
using a repeater, and the Company will determine when Repeaters are necessary. Additional charges
will apply. Provisioning of OPTICAL METRO Service is subjectto the availability and operational
limitations of the equipment and associated facilities.
5.3.3 Ethernet Virtual Connections (EVe)
An Ethernet Virtual Connection is a logical point-to-point connection between two customer
locations, and goes from the customer demarcation point at one location through the OPT-EMAN
network to terminate at the demarcation point at the second customer location. When multiple EVCs
are provisioned, the customer must designate the portion of the CIR assigned to each EVC. EVCs
can be set in 1 Mbps increments from 5 Mbps to 1000 Mbps. If a customer purchases the Silver
Grade of Service for CIR, the initial EVC will be prioritized as Silver. Additional EVCs can be
prioritized as either Silver or Bronze. However, if a customer purchases the Bronze Grade of Service
for CIR, additional EVCs cannot be prioritized as Silver, but only as Bronze.
5.3.4 Additional MAC Addresses
If a customer connects to the OPTICAL METRO network using a bridge or switch for Layer 2
connectivity, only 50 MAC addresses can be used per Layer 2 device, per port. Any additional
addresses will be assessed an additional charge, with a limit of 100 MAC addresses total per port.

Term Pricing Plan
5.3
5.4
The Term Pricing Plan provides for one, two, three or five year rate stabilization. Decreases
in Term monthly recurring tariff rates will be passed on to customers who participate in a
Term Pricing Plan.
Should the Company increase its rates during the Term Pricing Plan period, the customer
would continue to pay the rates in effect at the time the customer elected to establish service
under the Term Pricing Plan.
The customer may choose to terminate an existing TPP before the end ofthe 12 , or
60 month period and negotiate a new 12 , or 60 month TPP only when the new TPP
period is longer than the remaining period currently in effect The new TPP must be based
upon the rates that are currently in effect and available to all customers.
The customer must provide the Company with a written notice of intent to renew a TPP no
later than 90 days prior to its expiration. If the customer elects not to renew the TPP, or does
not notify the Company of the customer s intent to renew the TPP, the service will
automatically be billed under the tariffed monthly extension rates in effect at the time that
TPP expires. Subsequently, customers under the tariffed monthly extension rates may
convert their existing service to either a 12 , or 60 month TPP. Nonrecurring charges
will be waived at the time of conversion.

Diversity Options
Optical Metro Gigabit Service offers three Route Diversity options. They are Local Channel
Diversity, Inter-Wire Center Diversity, and Alternate Wire Center Diversity. Each is described
more fully in paragraph 6, following. End to end diversity can be achieved by coupling alternate
wire center diversity with inter-wire center diversity.
Protection Options
Optical Metro Gigabit Service offers the following Protection Options: Equipment Only
Protection, Equipment Plus Fiber Path Protection, Inter-Wire Center Path Protection, and Power
Protection. Protection Options provide additional levels offer liability to Optical Metro Gigabit
Service.
All basic service configurations provide a full duplex service, as a two-way simultaneous
transmission, There is one basic type of Optical Metro Gigabit Service configuration:
Node-to-Node Service (two-point) Service. Optical Metro Gigabit services from a customer data
hub location to multiple points, or multiple Optical Metro Gigabit services between two customer
data hub locations are merely aggregated Node-to-Node services,
A Node-to-Node configuration connects two customer designated premises either inter- or
intra-wire center.
Diversity Options
Route diversity options are available where facilities exist. If appropriate facilities do not exist
Special Construction charges may apply. End-to-end diversity can be achieved by coupling
Alternative Wire Center Diversity with Inter-Wire Center Diversity. Diversity Options are only

Local Channel Diversity (LCD)
Local Channel Diversity provides for a transmission path between a designated customer
premise and the standard serving wire center (SWC) that is diverse from the
normal/standard transmission path. Local Channel Diversity requires two eligible
services purchased by (or for the benefit of) the same customer. The Company will
determine which services are eligible based on technical or operational limitations. With
this arrangement, one or more local distribution channels will be provisioned over a
standard route and one or more local distribution channels will be provisioned over a
diverse route. Local channel diversity does not provide for full diversity; it only allows
for diversity from the splice point closest to the customer s property line to the SWc. If a
customer desires full diversity, arrangements must be made for the construction of dual
entrance facilities into the customer s premises, at the customer s expense.
Inter- Wire Center Diversity OWCD)
Inter-Wire Center Diversity arrangements presume that each end of a Optical Metro
Gigabit local distribution channel is served out of a different serving wire center (SWC).
This arrangement provides a transmission path for the Optical Metro Gigabit local
distribution channels between the customer s designated SWC and the serving wire
center at the distant end of the circuit, over a transmission path that is separate from the
standard transmission path between the two wire centers. Interoffice mileage will be
calculated between the intermediate serving wire
centers along the circuit path of the diversely routed Optical Metro Gigabit Service.
Inter-Wire Center Diversity requires
two eligible services purchased by (or for the benefit of) the same customer. The
Company will determine
which services are eligible based on technical or operational limitations.
In this scenario, the customer mayor may not already have a Optical Metro Gigabit local
distribution channel operating over the normal (or standard) inter-office route. Inter-wire
center diversity does not provide for full diversity; it only offers interoffice diversity. If a
customer desires full diversity, Alternate Wire Center Diversity must be coupled with
Inter-Wire Center Diversity. Additionally, arrangements must be made for the
construction of dual entrance facilities at the customer s premises, at the customer
expense.

Alternate Wire Center Diversity (A WCD)
Alternate Wire Center Diversity is for the local loop only. It provides a local channel transmission
path for Optical Metro Gigabit service between the customer s designated premises and a wire
center that is not the nonnal (or standard) serving wire center. The Company will choose the
alternate wire center closest to the customer s designated premises that is capable of providing
Optical Metro Gigabit Service over the alternate route. Alternate Wire
Center Diversity does not require the purchase of two Optical Metro Gigabit Services by (or for
the benefit of) the same customer, nor does it require the customer to have an existing Optical
Metro Gigabit circuit operating over the nonnal (or
standard) route to the nonnal (or standard) serving wire center. With this arrangement, one or more
local distribution channels will be provisioned over the alternate route. If a customer desires
full diversity, arrangements must be made for the construction of dual entrance facilities into the
customer s premises, at the customer s expense.
Protection Options
In addition to charges for the various Protection Options, nonnal charges for the Local Distribution
Channel and Interoffice Channel Mileage will apply. Protection Options provide additional levels
of reliability to Optical Metro Gigabit Service. There are multiple options for Protection at each
end of a two point circuit. The options at each end do not need to be the same, but both ends must
include some fonn of Protection, for any to be offered. A Optical Metro Gigabit circuit cannot
include Protection at only one end.
Optical Metro Gigabit offers the following Protection Options:
Equipment Onlv Protection (EOP)
Equipment Only Protection offers a network design where one Optical Metro Gigabit signal will
be routed down two different fiber pairs that co-exist in the same cable and conduit structure, and
tenninate at the customer s premise in the same device (but into separate and distinct modules),
Protection switching will occur between the two modules if necessary. Should one fiber pair or
network element become defective, service will be maintained through 50 millisecond protection
switching within the network tenninating equipment (NT E) at the customer s demarcation point. If
both fiber pairs are cut, an Out Of Service condition will result. This fonn of protection can only
be ordered per loop (per end) for each circuit the customer wishes to protect.
Equipment Plus Fiber Path Protection
Equipment Plus Fiber Path Protection offers varying degrees of path protection for each

Alternate Wire Center Path Protection fA WCPP)
One Optical Metro Gigabit (1 Gbps) signal will be routed over one fiber pair of the
protected circuit from the customer s premise to the normal serving wire center, and a
duplicate Optical Metro Gigabit (1 Gbps) signal will be routed over a diversely routed
fiber pair to the Alternate Wire Center selected by the Company. If any location between
the fiber paths is closer than 10 feet, the location or locations will be disclosed to the
customer. The customer will determine whether to accept the engineered path, or agree
to pay Special Construction Charges to have a completely diverse route constructed in
those instances where there is not a minimum separation of 10 feet between paths. The
customer can also select Equipment Only Protection for an inter-office segment where
facilities are not available. This option can be selected for one or both terminating ends.
If an equipment failure or fiber cable cut occurs in a segment of the circuit that has this
form of protection, the circuit will be switched to the alternate path in 50 milliseconds or
less. If a customer desires full path diversity, arrangements must be made for
constructing dual entrance facilities into the customer s premise, at the customer
expense.

Inter- Wire Center Path Protection (TWCPP)
Each fiber pair is routed through different Central Offices between the two serving wire
centers, or between the standard serving wire center and an alternate serving wire center.
Inter-Wire Center Protection begins at the first manhole out of the Central Office. If only
the two serving wire centers are involved, the two fiber pairs will be routed down two
fiber paths that are separated by at least 10 feet If any location between the fiber paths is
closer than 10 feet, the location or locations wi 11 be discI osed to the customer. The
customer wi 11 determine whether to accept the engineered path, or agree to pay Special
Construction Charges to have a completely diverse route constructed. The customer wi
receive Equipment Only Protection for an inter-office segment where facilities are not
available. If an equipment failure or fiber cable cut occurs on one of the interoffice
routes, the circuit will be switched to the alternate path in 50 milliseconds or less.
Interoffice mileage wi 11 be calculated between the intermediate serving wire centers
along the circuit paths of both protected fiber pairs.
Power Protection (PP)
Power Protection provides customers with battery back-up for up to eight (8) hours to
maintain Optical Metro Gigabit equipment in case of an AC power failure. Power
Protection is provided on a per rack or cabinet basis, and customers in a multi-tenant
building will require separate equipment and bays dedicated to each customer.
Power Protection is not available for installations using a wall mounted cabinet. The
Company will determine the appropriate number of service element charges to apply
based on how the customer s circuit(s) is (are) designed.

Waiver of Non-Recurring Charges
Upon three (3) business days notice to the DPUC, the Company may periodically offer
promotional campaigns. As a condition of the waiver, the customer shall be required to
commit to a minimum service period than the period, which period may vary depending
on the extent of the waiver and competitive conditions. If the customer changes or
discontinues this service prior to the end of the contracted period, the customer will be
liable for the present worth of the remaining monthly charges.
Moves
A customer may move one Local Distribution Channel of a Optical Metro Gigabit Service
during their TPP term to another premises in the same LATA and keep the Term Plan in
force (without assessment of Early Termination Liability), provided no lapse in billing
occurs,
Moves of one Channel Termination to a premises in a different serving office (SWC) may
result in a change in the monthly charges.
Standard non-recurring charges as appropriate are applicable. If appropriate
facilities are not available at the new location, Special Construction charges may apply. If
the customer moves both ends ofthe service concurrently the customer will be liable for
Termination Liability charges as this is considered a complete disconnection ofthe
service.
Customers will be permitted to move one end of a Optical Metro Gigabit Service to
another location, without incurring Termination Charges, given the following conditions
are met:
The customer must issue a disconnect order for the existing location and place a new
service order for Optical Metro Gigabit Service at the new location. Termination Charges
for the existing location will be waived. Standard nonrecurring charges to install Optical
Metro Gigabit Service as a new circuit will apply.
Negotiated down time will apply, as the new circuit will need to be designed and
installed.
The tern of the new contract must be equal to or greater than the remaining time left on
the existing Optical Metro Gigabit contract.
The existing Optical Metro Gigabit Service must have been in service for a minimum
period of 12 months for a 2year contract, 15 months for a 3-year contract or 18 months
for a 5-year contract. Existing Optical Metro Gigabit Service with I-year contracts will
not be eligible for this Moves option.

DS 1 Private Line (DS 1) is a channel for the transmission of nominal 1.544 Mbps, isochronous serial data.
The actual bit rate and framing format is a function of the channel interface selected by the customer. DS 1
Service has the equivalent capacity of 24 Voice Grade services or 24 DSO services. DS 1 channels are
provisioned, 1) between customer and designated Premises, 2) between a customer designated Premises and
a Company POP (where DSI Multiplexing is performed), 3) between a customer designated premises and
an DS3 Multiplexing is performed), and 4) as a Service-to-Service Through Connect Arrangement with
another DS 1 circuit. Fractional DS 1 Private Line is not available. When a single DS 1 is ordered to be
terminated at a customer s designated Carrier s all-digital POP which requires a minimum digital interface
level of Mbps, Company will provide the required interface to the Carrier where facilities are available. For
this connection, Company will require the Carrier to procure a minimum of a DS3-level Private Line
entrance facility (or channel termination) from their POP to the Company POP,
DS3 Service
DS3 Private Line (DS3) is a channel for the transmission of nominal 44.736 Mbps, isochronous serial data.
DS3 circuits are provisioned, l)between customer designated premises, 2) between a customer designated
premises and a Company POP (where DS3 Multiplexing is performed), 3) between a customer designated
premises and 4) as a Service-to-Service Through Connect Arrangement with another DS3 circuit.
OC-N Service
Optical SONET Services are provided in accordance with ANSI Standard Tl.I05. OC-3 Service operates
at 155.520 Mbps and is configured with 3 separate STS-l signaling paths. OC-3C Service operates at
155.520 Mbps and is configured with 1 STS-3C signaling path (or 3 concatenated STS-l signaling paths).
