3.14.2 Verizon is conducting a mechanized survey of existing Loop facilities,on
a Central Office by Central Office basis,to identify those Loops that
meet the applicable technical characteristics established by Verizon for
compatibility with ADSL,HDSL,IDSL,SDSL and BRI ISDN signals.
The results of this survey will be stored in a mechanized database and
made available to OneEighty as the process is completed in each
Central Office.OneEighty must utilize this mechanized loop
qualification database,where available,in advance of submitting a
valid electronic transmittal service order for an ADSL,HDSL,IDSL,
SDSL or BRI ISDN Loop.Charges for mechanized loop qualification
information are set forth in the Pricing Attachment.
3.14.3 If the Loop is not listed in the mechanized database described in Section
3.14.2,OneEighty must request a manual loop qualification prior to
submitting a valid electronic service order for an ADSL,HDSL,SDSL,
IDSL,or BRI ISDN Loop.The rates for manual loop qualification are
set forth in the Pricing Attachment.In general,Verizon will complete a
manual loop qualification request within three Business Days,although
Verizon may require additional time due to poor record conditions,
spikes in demand,or other unforeseen events.
3.14.4 If a query to the mechanized loop qualification database or manual loop
qualification indicates that a Loop does not qualify (e.g.,because it
does not meet the applicable technical parameters set forth in the Loop
descriptions above),OneEighty may request an Engineering Query,as
described in Section 3.14.6,to determine whether the result is due to
characteristics of the loop itself (e.g.,specific number and location of
bridged taps,the specific number of load coils,or the gauge of the
cable).
3.14.5 If OneEighty submits a service order for an ADSL,HDSL,SDSL,IDSL,
or BRI ISDN Loop that has not been prequalified,Verizon will query
the service order back to OneEighty for qualification and will not accept
such service order until the Loop has been prequalified on a
mechanized or manual basis.If OneEighty submits a service order for
an ADSL,HDSL,SDSL,IDSL,or BRI ISDN Loop that is,in fact,not
compatible with such services in its existing condition,Verizon will
respond back to OneEighty with a "Nonqualified"indicator and with
information showing whether the non-qualified result is due to the
presence of load coils,presence of digital loop carrier,or loop length
(including bridged tap).
3.14.6 Where OneEighty has followed the prequalification procedure described
above and has determined that a Loop is not compatible with ADSL,
HDSL,SDSL,IDSL,or BRI ISDN service in its existing condition,it
may either request an Engineering Query to determine whether
conditioning may make the Loop compatible with the applicable
service;or if OneEighty is already aware of the conditioning required
(e.g.,where OneEighty has previously requested a qualification and
has obtained loop characteristics),OneEighty may submit a service
order for a Digital Designed Loop.Verizon will undertake to condition
or extend the Loop in accordance with this Section 3.14 upon receipt of
OneEighty's valid,accurate and pre-qualified service order for a Digital
Designed Loop.
3.15 The Parties will make reasonable efforts to coordinate their respective roles in
order to minimize provisioning problems.In general,where conditioning or loop
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 85
extensions are requested by OneEighty,an interval of eighteen (18)Business
Days will be required by Verizon to complete the loop analysis and the necessary
construction work involved in conditioning and/or extending the loop as follows:
3.15.1 Three (3)Business Days will be requiredfollowing receipt of OneEighty's
valid,accurate and pre-qualified service order for a Digital Designed
Loop to analyze the loop and related plant records and to create an
Engineering Work Order.
3.15.2 Upon completion of an Engineering Work Order,Verizon will initiate the
construction order to perform the changes/modifications to the Loop
requested by OneEighty.Conditioning activities are,in most cases,
able to be accomplished within fifteen (15)Business Days.
Unforeseen conditions may add to this interval.
After the engineering and conditioning tasks have been completed,the standard
Loop provisioning and installation process will be initiated,subject to Verizon's
standard provisioning intervals.
3.16 If OneEighty requires a change in scheduling,it must contact Verizon to issue a
supplement to the original service order.If OneEighty cancels the request for
conditioning after a loop analysis has been completed but prior to the
commencement of constructionwork,OneEighty shall compensate Verizonfor
an Engineering Work Order charge as set forth in the Pricing Attachment.If
OneEighty cancels the requestfor conditioning after the loop analysis has been
completed and after construction work has started or is complete,OneEighty
shall compensate Verizon for an Engineering Work Order charge as well as the
charges associated with the conditioning tasks performed as set forth in the
Pricing Attachment.
3.17 Conversion of Live Telephone Exchange Service to Analog 2W Loops.
3.17.1 The following coordination procedures shall apply to "live"cutovers of
Verizon Customers who are converting their Telephone Exchange
Services to OneEighty Telephone Exchange Services provisionedover
Analog 2W unbundled Local Loops ("Analog 2W Loops)to be provided
by Verizon to OneEighty:
3.17.1.1 Coordinated cutover charges shall apply to conversions of
live Telephone Exchange Services to Analog 2W Loops.
When an outside dispatch is required to perform a
conversion,additional charges may apply.If OneEighty
does not request a coordinated cutover,Verizon will
process OneEighty's order as a new installation subject to
applicable standard provisioning intervals.
3.17.1.2 OneEighty shall request Analog 2W Loops for coordinated
cutover from Verizon by delivering to Verizon a valid
electronic Local Service Request ("LSR").Verizon agrees
to accept from OneEighty the date and time for the
conversion designated on the LSR ("Scheduled Conversion
Time"),provided that such designation is within the regularly
scheduled operating hours of the Verizon RegionalCLEC
Control Center ("RCCC")and subject to the availability of
Verizon's work force.In the event that Verizon's work force
is not available,OneEighty and Verizon shall mutuallyagree
on a New Conversion Time,as defined below.OneEighty
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 86
shall designate the Scheduled Conversion Time subject to
Verizon standard provisioning intervals as stated in the
Verizon CLEC Handbook,as may be revised from time to
time.Within three (3)Business Days of Verizon's receipt of
such valid LSR,or as otherwise required by Applicable Law,
Verizon shall provide OneEighty the scheduled due date for
conversion of the Analog 2W Loops covered by such LSR.
3.17.1.3 OneEighty shall provide dial tone at the OneEighty
Collocation site at least forty-eight (48)hours prior to the
Scheduled Conversion Time.
3.17.1.4 Either Party may contact the other Party to negotiate a new
Scheduled Conversion Time (the "New Conversion Time");
provided,however,that each Party shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to providefour (4)business hours'
advance notice to the other Party of its request for a New
Conversion Time.Any Scheduled Conversion Time or New
Conversion Time may not be rescheduled more than one
(1)time in a Business Day,and any two New Conversion
Times for a particular Analog 2W Loop shall differ by at
least eight (8)hours,unless otherwise agreed to by the
Parties.
3.17.1.5 If the New Conversion Time is more than one (1)business
hour from the original Scheduled Conversion Time or from
the previous New Conversion Time,the Party requesting
such New Conversion Time shall be subject to the following:
3.17.1.5.1 If Verizon requeststo reschedule outside of the
one (1)hour time frame above,the Analog 2W
Loops Service Order Charge for the original
Scheduled Conversion Time or the previous
New Conversion Time shall be waived upon
request from OneEighty;and
3.17.1.5.2 If OneEighty requests to reschedule outsidethe
one (1)hour time frame above,OneEighty shall
be charged an additional Analog 2W Loops
Service Order Charge for reschedulingthe
conversion to the New Conversion Time.
3.17.1.6 If OneEighty is not ready to accept service at the Scheduled
Conversion Time or at a New Conversion Time,as
applicable,an additional Service Order Charge shall apply.
If Verizon is not available or ready to perform the
conversion within thirty (30)minutes of the Scheduled
Conversion Time or New Conversion Time,as applicable,
Verizon and OneEighty will rescheduleand,upon request
from OneEighty,Verizon will waive the Analog 2W Loop
Service Order Charge for the original Scheduled
Conversion Time.
3.17.1.7 The standard time interval expectedfrom disconnection of a
live Telephone Exchange Service to the connection of the
Analog 2W Loops to OneEighty is fifteen (15)minutes per
Analog 2W Loop for all orders consisting of twenty (20)
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 87
Analog 2W Loops or less.Orders involving more than
twenty (20)Loops will require a negotiated interval.
3.17.1.8 Conversions involving LNP will be completed according to
North American Numbering Council ("NANC")standards,
via the regional Number Portability Administration Center
("NPAC").
3.17.1.9 If OneEighty requires Analog 2W Loop conversions outside
of the regularly scheduled Verizon RCCC operating hours,
such conversions shall be separately negotiated.Additional
charges (e.g.overtime labor charges)may apply for desired
dates and times outside of regularly scheduled RCCC
operating hours.
3.18 Verizon shall provide OneEighty access to its Loops at each of Verizon's Wire
Centersfor Loops terminating in that Wire Center.In addition,if OneEighty
orders one or more Loops provisioned via Integrated Digital Loop Carrier or
Remote Switching technology deployed as a Loop concentrator,Verizon shall,
where available,move the requested Loop(s)to a spare physical Loop,if one is
existing and available,at no additional charge to OneEighty.If,however,no
spare physical Loop is available,Verizon shall within three (3)Business Days of
OneEighty's request notify OneEighty of the lack of availablefacilities.
OneEighty may then at its discretion make a Network Element Bona Fide
Request pursuant to Section 14.3 to Verizon to provide the unbundled Local
Loop through the demultiplexing of the integrated digitized Loop(s).OneEighty
may also make a Network Element Bona Fide Request pursuant to Section 14.3
for access to Unbundled Local Loops at the Loop concentration site point.
Notwithstandinganything to the contrary in this Agreement,standard provisioning
intervals shall not apply to Loops provided under this Section 3.18.
4.Line Sharing
4.1 "Line Sharing"is an arrangement by which Verizon facilitates OneEighty's
provision of ADSL (in accordance with T1.413),Splitterless ADSL (in accordance
with T1.419),RADSL (in accordance with TR #59),MultipleVirtual Line (MVL)(a
proprietary technology),or any other xDSL technology that is presumedto be
acceptablefor shared line deployment in accordance with FCC rules,to a
particularCustomer location over an existing copper Loop that is being used
simultaneously by Verizon to provide analog circuit-switched voice grade service
to that Customer by making available to OneEighty,solely for OneEighty's own
use,the frequency range above the voice band on the same copper Loop
required by OneEighty to provide such services.This Section 4 addresses line
sharing over loops that are entirely copper loops.
4.2 Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 1,Verizon shall provide Line
Sharingto OneEighty for OneEighty's provision of ADSL (in accordance with
T1.413),Splitterless ADSL (in accordance with T1.419),RADSL (in accordance
with TR #59),MVL (a proprietary technology),or any other xDSL technology that
is presumed to be acceptable for shared line deployment in accordancewith
FCC rules,in accordance with this Section 4 and the rates and charges provided
in the Pricing Attachment.Verizon shall provide Line Sharing to OneEighty in
accordancewith,but only to the extent required by,Applicable Law.In order for
a Loop to be eligible for Line Sharing,the following conditions must be satisfied
for the duration of the Line Sharing arrangement:(i)the Loop must consist of a
copper loop compatible with an ×DSL service that is presumed to be acceptable
for shared-line deployment in accordance with FCC rules;(ii)Verizon must be
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 88
providing simultaneous circuit-switched analog voice grade service to the
Customer served by the Loop in question;(lii)the Verizon Customer's dial tone
must originate from a Verizon End Office Switch in the Wire Center where the
Line Sharing arrangement is being requested;and (iv)the xDSL technology to be
deployed by OneEighty on that Loop must not significantly degrade the
performance of other services provided on that Loop.
4.3 Verizon shall make Line Sharing available to OneEighty at the rates and charges
set forth in the Pricing Attachment.In addition to the recurring and nonrecurring
charges shown in the Pricing Attachment for Line Sharing itself,the following
rates shown in the Pricing Attachment and in Verizon's applicable Tariffs are
among those that may apply to a Line Sharing arrangement:(i)prequalification
charges to determine whether a Loop is xDSL compatible (i.e.,compatible with
an xDSL service that is presumedto be acceptable for shared-line deployment in
accordance with FCC rules);(ii)engineering query charges,engineeringwork
order charges,or Loop conditioning (Digital Designed Loop)charges;(iii)
charges associated with Collocation activities requested by OneEighty;and (iv)
misdirected dispatch charges,charges for installation or repair,manual
intervention surcharges,trouble isolation charges,and pair swap/line and station
transfer charges.
4.4 The following ordering procedures shall apply to Line Sharing:
4.4.1 To determine whether a Loop qualifies for Line Sharing,the Loop must
first be prequalified to determine if it is xDSL compatible.OneEighty
must utilize the Loop qualification processes described in the terms
applicable to xDSL and Digital Designed Loops to make this
determination.
4.4.2 OneEighty shall place orders for Line Sharing by delivering to Verizon a
valid electronic transmittal service order or other mutually agreed upon
type of service order.Such service order shall be provided in
accordance with industryformat and specifications or such format and
specifications as may be agreed to by the Parties.
4.4.3 If the Loop is prequalified by OneEighty through the Loop prequalification
database,and if a positive response is received and followed by
receipt of OneEighty's valid,accurate and pre-qualified service order
for Line Sharing,Verizon will return an LSR confirmation within twenty-
four (24)hours (weekends and holidays excluded)for LSRs with less
than six (6)loops and within 72 hours (weekendsand holidays
excluded)for LSRs with six (6)or more loops.
4.4.4 If the Loop requires qualification manually or through an Engineering
Query,three (3)additional Business Days will generally be required to
obtain Loop qualification results before an order confirmation can be
returned following receipt of OneEighty's valid,accurate request.
Verizon may require additional time to complete the Engineering Query
where there are poor record conditions,spikes in demand,or other
unforeseen events.
4.4.5 If conditioning is required to make a Loop capable of supporting Line
Sharing and OneEighty orders such conditioning,then Verizon shall
provide such conditioning in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement pertaining to Digital Designed Loops;or if this Agreement
does not contain provisions pertaining to Digital Designed Loops,then
in accordance with Verizon s generally available rates,terms and
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 89
conditions applicable to Digital Design Loops;provided,however,thatVerizonshallnotbeobligatedtoprovideLoopconditioningifVerizonestablishes,in the manner required by Applicable Law,that such
conditioning is likely to degrade significantly the voice-grade sentice
being provided to Verizon's Customers over such Loops.
4.4.6 The standard Loop provisioning and installation process will be initiatedfortheLineSharingarrangementonlyoncetherequestedengineering
and conditioning tasks have been completed on the Loop.Schedulingchangesandchargesassociatedwithordercancellationsafter
conditioning work has been initiated are addressed in the termspertainingtoDigitalDesignedLoops,as referenced in Section 4.4.5,above.The standard provisioning intervalfor the Line SharingarrangementshallbeassetoutintheVerizonProductInterval Guide;provided that the standard provisioning intervalfor the Line Sharingarrangementshallnotexceedtheshortestofthefollowingintervals:
(a)six (6)Business Days;(b)the standard provisioning interval for the
Line Sharing arrangement that is stated in an applicable Verizon Tariff;
or,(c)the standard provisioning interval for the Line SharingarrangementthatisrequiredbyApplicableLaw.The standard
provisioning interval for the Line Sharing arrangement shall commence
only once any requested engineering and conditioning tasks have
been completed.Line Sharing arrangements that require pair swaps
or line and station transfers in order to free-up facilities may have aprovisioningintervalthatislongerthanthestandardprovisioningintervalfortheLineSharingarrangement.In no event shall the Line
Sharing interval offered to OneEighty be longer than the intervalofferedtoanysimilarlysituatedAffiliateofVerizon.
4.4.7 OneEighty must provide all required Collocation,CFA,Special BillNumber(SBN)and NC/NCI information when a Line Sharing
Arrangement is ordered.Collocation augments required,either at the
Point of Termination (POT)Bay,Collocation node,or for splitter
placement,must be ordered using standard collocation applications
and procedures,unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties or specified
in this Agreement.
4.4.8 The Parties recognize that Line Sharing is an offering that requires both
Parties to make reasonable efforts to coordinate their respective roles
in order to minimize provisioning problems and facility issues.
OneEighty will provide reasonable,timely,and accurate forecasts of its
Line Sharing requirements,including splitter placement elections and
ordering preferences.These forecasts are in addition to projections
provided for other stand-alone unbundled Loop types.
4.5 To the extent required by Applicable Law,OneEighty shall provide Verizon with
information regarding the type of xDSL technology that it deploys on each shared
Loop.Where any proposed change in technology is planned on a shared Loop,OneEighty must provide this information to Verizon in order for Verizon to update
Loop records and anticipate effects that the change may have on the voice gradeserviceandotherLoopsinthesameoradjacentbindergroups.
4.6 As described more fully in Verizon Technical Reference 72575,the xDSLtechnologyusedbyOneEightyforLineShareArrangementsshalloperate within
the Power Spectral Density (PSD)limits set forth in Ti.413-1998 (ADSL),T1.419-2000 (Splitterless ADSL),or TRS9-1999 (RADSL),and MVL (a
proprietary technology)shall operate within the 0 to 4 kHz PSD limits of T1.413-
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 90
1998 and within the transmit PSD limits of T1.601-1998for frequencies above 4kHz,provided that the MVL PSD associated with audible frequencies above 4kHzshallbesufficientlyattenuatedtoprecludesignificantlydegradingvoiceservices.OneEighty's deployment of additional Advanced Services shall besubjecttotheapplicableFCCRules.
4.7 OneEighty may only access the high frequency portion of a Loop in a LineSharingarrangementthroughanestablishedCollocationarrangementattheVerizonServingWireCenterthatcontainstheEndOfficeSwitchthroughwhichvoicegradeserviceisprovidedtoVerizon's Customer.OneEighty is responsibleforproviding,through one of the splitter options described below,a splitter at thatWireCenterthatcomplieswithANSIspecificationT1.413,employs DirectCurrent(DC)blocking capacitors or equivalent technology to assist in isolating
high bandwidth trouble resolution and maintenance to the high frequency portion
of the frequency spectrum,and operates so that the analog voice "dial tone"stays active when the splitter card is removed for testing or maintenance.OneEighty is also responsible for providing its own Digital Subscriber LineAccessMultiplexer(DSLAM)equipment in the Collocation arrangement and anynecessaryCustomerProvidedEquipment(CPE)for the xDSL service it intends
to provide (including CPE splitters,filters and/or other equipment necessaryfortheendusertoreceiveseparatevoiceanddataservicesacrossthesharedLoop).
Two splitter configurations are available.In both configurations,the splitter must
be provided by OneEighty and must satisfy the same NEBS requirementsthatVerizonimposesonitsownsplitterequipmentorthesplitterequipmentofanyVerizonAffiliate.OneEighty must designate which splitter option it is choosing
on the Collocation application or augment.Regardless of the option selected,the splitter arrangements must be installed before OneEighty submits an orderforLineSharing.
Splitter Option A (Splitter Option 1):Splitter in OneEightyCollocationArea
In this configuration,the OneEighty-provided splitter (ANSI Ti.413 or MVLcompliant)is provided,installed and maintained by OneEighty in its ownCollocationspacewithintheCustomer's serving End Office.The Verizon-provided dial tone is routed through the splitter in the OneEighty Collocation
area.Any rearrangements will be the responsibility of OneEighty.
Splitter Option C (Splitter Option 2):Splitter in Verizon Area
In this configuration,Verizon inventories and maintains a OneEighty-providedsplitter(ANSI Ti.413 or MVL compliant)in Verizon space within the Customer'sservingEndOffice.The splitters will be installed shelf-at-a-time.
In those serving End Offices where Verizon employs the use of a POT Bay forinterconnectionofOneEighty's Collocation arrangement with Verizon's network,the splitter will be installed (mounted)in a relay rack betweenthe POT Bay and
the MDF.The demarcation point is at the splitter end of the cable connecting thePOTBayandthesplitter.Installation of the splitter will be performed by Verizon
or,at OneEighty's election,by a Verizon-approved vendor designated byOneEighty.
In those serving End Offices where Verizon does not employ a POT Bay for
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 91
interconnection of OneEighty's Collocation arrangement with Verizon's network,
the OneEighty provided splitter will be installed (mounted)in a relay rack
betweenthe OneEighty Collocation arrangement and the MDF.The demarcation
point is at the splitter end of the cable connecting the OneEighty Collocation
arrangemént and the splitter.Installation of the splitter will be performed by
Verizon,or,at OneEighty's election,by a Verizon-approved vendor designated
by OneEighty.
In either scenario,Verizon will control the splitter and will direct any required
activity.Where a POT Bay is employed,Verizon will also perform all POT Bay
work required in this configuration.Verizon will provide a splitter inventory to
OneEighty upon completion of the required work.
4.7.1 Where a new splitter is to be installed as part of an initial Collocation
implementation,the splitter installation may be ordered as part of the
initial Collocation application.Associated Collocation charges
(application and engineering fees)apply.OneEighty must submit a
new Collocation application,with the application fee,to Verizon
detailing its request.Except as otherwise required by Applicable Law,
standard Collocation intervals will apply.
4.7.2 Where a new splitter is to be installed as part of an existing Collocation
arrangement,or where the existing Collocation arrangement is to be
augmented (e.g.,with additional terminations at the POT Bay or
OneEighty's collocation arrangement to support Line Sharing),the
splitter installation or augment may be ordered via an application for
Collocation augment.Associated Collocation charges (application and
engineering fees)apply.OneEighty must submit the applicationfor
Collocation augment,with the application fee,to Verizon.Unless a
longer interval is stated in Verizon's applicable Tariff,an interval of
seventy-six (76)Business Days shall apply.
4.8 OneEightywill have the following options for testing shared Loops:
4.8.1 In serving End Offices where Verizon employs a POT Bay for
interconnection of OneEighty Collocation arrangement with Verizon's
network,the following options shall be available to OneEighty.
4.8.1.1 Under Splitter Option A,OneEighty may conduct its own
physical tests of the shared Loopfrom OneEighty's
collocation area.If it chooses to do so,OneEighty may
supply and install a test head to facilitate such physical
tests,provided that:(a)the test head satisfies the same
NEBS requirements that Verizon imposes on its own test
head equipment or the test head equipment of any Verizon
Affiliate;and (b)the test head does not interrupt the voice
circuit to any greater degree than a conventional MLT test.
Specifically,the OneEighty-provided test equipment may
not interrupt an in-in-progressvoice connection and must
automatically restore any circuits tested in intervals
comparable to MLT.This optional OneEighty-providedtest
head will be installed in OneEighty's Collocaton area
between the "line"port of the splitter and the POT Bay in
order to conduct remote physical tests of the shared Loop.
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 92
4.8.1.2 Under Splitter Option C,upon request by OneEighty,eitherVerizonor,at OneEighty's election,a Verizon-approvedvendorselectedbyOneEightywillinstallaOneEighty-provided test head to enable OneEighty to conduct remote
physical tests of the shared Loop.This optional OneEighty-provided test head will be installed at a point between the
"line"port of the splitter and the Verizon-provided test head
that is used by Verizon to conduct its own Loop testing.The OneEighty-provided test head must satisfy the sameNEBSrequirementsthatVerizonimposesonitsowntest
head equipment or the test head equipment of any VerizonAffiliate,and may not interrupt the voice circuit to anygreaterdegreethanaconventionalMLTtest.Specifically,
the OneEighty-provided test equipment may not interrupt anin-progress voice connection and must automatically restore
any circuits tested in intervals comparable to MLT.Verizon
will inventory,control and maintainthe OneEighty-provided
test head,and will direct all required activity.
4.8.1.3 Under either Splitter Option,if Verizon has installed its own
test head,Verizon will conduct tests of the shared Loop
using a Verizon-provided test head,and,upon request,willprovidethesetestresultstoOneEightyduringnormaltroubleisolationproceduresinaccordancewithreasonable
procedures.
4.8.1.4 Under either Splitter Option,upon request by OneEighty,Verizon will make MLT access available to OneEighty viaRETASaftertheserviceorderhasbeencompleted.
OneEighty will utilize the circuit number to initiate a test.
4.8.2 In those serving End Offices where Verizon has not employed a POT
Bay for interconnection of OneEighty's Collocation arrangement withVerizon's network,OneEighty will not be permitted to supply its own
test head.Instead,Verizon will make a testing system available toOneEightythroughuseoftheon-line computer interface test system atwww.verizon.com/wise.
4.8.3 The Parties will continue to work cooperatively on testing procedures.To this end,in situations where OneEighty has attempted to use one or
more of the foregoing testing options but is still unable to resolve the
error or trouble on the shared Loop,Verizon and OneEighty will eachdispatchatechniciantoanagreed-upon point to conduct a joint meet
test to identify and resolve the error or trouble.Verizon may assess achargeforamisdirecteddispatchonlyiftheerrorortroubleisdeterminedtobeonethatOneEightyshouldreasonablyhavebeenabletoisolateanddiagnosethroughoneofthetestingoptionsavailabletoOneEightyabove.The Parties will mutually agree upon
the specific procedures for conducting joint meet tests.
4.8.4 Verizon and OneEighty each have a responsibility to educate theCustomerregardingwhichserviceprovidershouldbecalledforproblemswiththeirrespectiveserviceofferings.Verizon will retainprimaryresponsibilityforvoicebandtroubletickets,including repairinganalogvoicegradeservicesandthephysicallinebetweentheNIDat
the Customer premise and the point of demarcation in the Central
Office.OneEighty will be responsible for repairing services it offers
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 93
over the Line Sharing arrangement.Each Party will be responsiblefor
maintaining its own equipment.If a splitter or test head that OneEighty
has provided to Verizon malfunctions,OneEighty shall provide a
replacement splitter or test head to Verizon.Before either Party
lnitiates any activity on a shared Loop that may cause a disruption of
the service of the other Party,that Party shall first make a good faith
effort to notify the other Party of the possibility of a service disruption.
Verizon and OneEighty will work together to address Customer
initiated repair requests and to prevent adverse impacts to the
Customer.
4.8.5 When Verizon provides Inside Wire maintenance services to the
Customer,Verizon will only be responsiblefor testing and repairing the
Inside Wire for voice-grade services.Verizon will not test,dispatch a
technician,repair,or upgrade inside Wire to clear trouble calls
associated with OneEighty's Advanced Services.Verizon will not repair
any CPE provided by OneEighty.Before a trouble ticket is issued to
Verizon,OneEighty shall validate whether the Customer is
experiencing a trouble that arises from OneEighty's service.If the
problem reported is isolated to the analog voice-grade service provided
by Verizon,a trouble ticket may be issued to Verizon.
4.8.6 In the case of a trouble reported by the Customer on its voice-grade
service,if Verizon determines the reported trouble arises from
OneEighty's equipment,splitter problems,or OneEighty'sactivities,
Verizon will:
4.8.6.1 Notify OneEighty and request that OneEighty immediately
test the trouble on OneEighty's service.
4.8.6.2 If the Customer's voice grade service is so degraded that
the Customer cannot originate or receivevoice grade calls,
and OneEighty has not cleared its trouble within a
reasonable time frame,Verizon may take unilateral steps to
temporarily restore the Customer's voice grade service if
Verizon determines in good faith that the cause of the voice
interruption is OneEighty's service.
4.8.6.3 Upon completion of the steps in 4.8.6.1 and 4.8.6.2,above,
Verizon may temporarily remove the OneEighty-provided
splitter from the Customer's Loop and switch port if Verizon
determines in good faith that the cause of the voice
interruption is OneEighty's service.
4.8.6.4 Upon notification from OneEighty that the malfunction in
OneEighty's service has been cleared,Verizon will restore
OneEighty's service by restoring the splitter on the
Customer's Loop.
4.8.6.5 Upon completion of the above steps,OneEighty will be
charged a Trouble Isolation Charge (TIC)to recover
Verizon's costs of isolating and temporarily removingthe
malfunctioning OneEighty service from the Customer's line
if the cause of the voice interruption was OneEighty's
service.
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 94
4.8.6.6 Verizon shall not be liable to OneEighty,the Customer,or
any other person,for damages of any kind for disruptions to
OneEighty's service that are the result of the above steps
taken in good faith to restore the end user's voice-grade
POTS service,and OneEighty shall indemnify Verizon from
any Claims that result from such steps.
5.Line Splitting
CLECs may provide integrated voice and data services over the same Loop by engaging
in "Line Splitting"as set forth in paragraph 18 of the FCC's Line Sharing Reconsideration
Order (CC Docket Nos.98-147,96-98),released January 19,2001.Any Line Splitting
between two CLECs shall be accomplished by prior negotiated arrangement between
those CLECs.To achieve a Line Splitting capability,CLECs may utilize supporting
Verizon OSS to order and combine in a Line Splitting configuration an unbundled xDSL
capable Loop terminated to a collocated splitter and DSLAM equipment provided by a
participating CLEC,unbundled switching combined with shared transport,collocator-to-
collocator connections,and available cross-connects,under the terms and conditions set
forth in their interconnection Agreement(s).The participating CLECs shall provideany
splitters used in a Line Splitting configuration.CLECs seeking to migrate existing UNE
platform configurations to a Line Splitting configuration using the same Network Elements
utilized in the pre-existing platform arrangement,or seeking to migrate a Line Sharing
arrangement to a Line Splitting configuration using the existing Loop,a Verizon Local
Switching Network Element,and the existing central office wiring configuration,may do
so consistent with such implementation schedules,terms,conditions and guidelines as
are agreed upon for such migrations in the ongoing DSL Collaborative in the State of
New York,NY PSC Case 00-C-0127,allowing for local jurisdictional and OSS
differences.
6.Sub-Loop
6.1 Sub-Loop -Distribution (USLA).
Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 1 and upon request by OneEighty,

limited to,Verizon's applicable Tariffs)and the requirements of Applicable Law,
Collocationfor the purpose of facilitating OneEighty's interconnectionwith facilities orservicesofVerizonoraccesstoUnbundledNetworkElementsofVerizon;provided,that
notwithstandingany other provision of this Agreement,Verizon shall be obligatedtoprovideCollocationtoOneEightyonlytotheextentrequiredbyApplicableLawand may
decline to provide Collocation to OneEighty to the extent that provision of Collocation is
not required by Applicable Law.Subject to the foregoing,Verizon shall provide
Collocation to OneEighty in accordance with the rates,terms and conditions set forth in
Verizon's Collocation tariff,and Verizon shall do so regardless of whether or not such
rates,terms and conditions are effective.
Because the Commission rejected Verizon's Collocation Tariff Advice No.00-05 in Order
No.28490 on August 29,2000,Verizon shall provide Collocation according to the
following terms and conditions in the State of Idaho on an interim basis only until such
time as the Commission's decision is reversed and Verizon's Collocation Tariff Advice
No.00-05 is permitted to go into effect or until such time as Verizon files another
Collocation Tariff in Idaho.At such time as the Commission's decision is reversed and
Verizon's Collocation Tariff Advice No.00-05 is permitted to go into effect or at such time
as there is a Verizon Collocation tariff on file with the Commission,and subject to the
foregoing,the following terms and conditions will be rendered ineffectual,and Verizon
shall provide Collocation to OneEighty in accordance with the terms and conditions set
forth in Verizon's Collocation tariff,and Verizon shall do so regardless of whether or not
such terms and conditions are effective.
Section 1 of this Collocation Attachment ("Attachment"),in conjunction with the rest of
this Agreement,set forth the terms and a conditions under which Verizon shall provide
collocation services to OneEighty.Collocation provides for access to Verizon's
"Premises",for the purpose of interconnection and/or access to Unbundled Network
Elements (UNEs).Verizon's Premises include Verizon's central offices,serving Wire
Centers,and all other buildings or similar structures owned,leased,or otherwise
controlled by Verizon that house Verizon's network facilities.Collocation at Verizon's
Wire Centers and access tandems shall be accomplished through caged,cageless,
virtual or microwave service offerings,as described below,except if not practical for
technical reasons or due to space limitations.In such event,Verizon shall provide
adjacent collocation or other methods of collocation,subject to space availability and
technical feasibility.As required by Applicable Law,Verizon shall also offer rates,terms
and conditions for collocation services that are not expressly addressed in this
Attachment or other Verizon tariffs on an individual case basis,and in doing so,shall
comply with all applicable federal or state requirements.
1.1 Types of Collocation.
1.1.1 Sinqle Caqed.A single caged arrangement is a form of
caged collocation,which allows a single CLEC to lease caged floor
space to house its equipment within Verizon Premises.
1.1.2 Shared Caqed.A shared caged arrangement is a newly constructed
caged collocation arrangement that is jointly applied for and occupied
by two or more CLECs within a Verizon Premise.When two or more
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 111
CLECs request establishment and jointly apply for a new caged
collocation arrangement to be used as a shared caged arrangement,
one of the participating CLECs must agree to be the host CLEC (HC)
and the other(s)to be the guest CLEC (GC).The HC and GC(s)are
solely responsible for determining whether to share a shared caged
collocation arrangement and if so,upon what terms and conditions.The HC and GC(s)must each be interconnectedto Verizon for the
exchange of traffic with Verizon and/or to access unbundled networkelements.Verizon will not issue separate billing for any of the rate
elements associated with the shared caged collocation arrangement
between the HC and the GC(s),but Verizon will provide the HC with
information on the proportionate share of the NRCs for each CLEC in
the shared arrangement.The HC will be responsible for ordering and
payment of all collocation applicable services ordered by the HC and
GC(s).The HC and GC will be responsiblefor ordering their own
unbundled network elements from Verizon.Verizon will separately bill
the HC and/or GC(s)for unbundled network elements ordered.The
HC and GC(s)are Verizon's customers and have all the rights and
obligations applicable hereunder to CLECs purchasing collocation-
related services,including,without limitation,the obligation to pay allapplicablecharges,whether or not the HC is reimbursed for all or any
portion of such charges by the guest(s)All terms and conditions for
caged collocation as described in this Attachment will apply to shared
caged collocation requirements.
1.1.3 Subleased Caqed.Vacant space available in a CLEC's caged
collocation arrangement may be made available to a third party(s)for
the purpose of interconnectionand/or for access to UNEs in Verizon
Premises via the subleasing collocation arrangement.The CLEC
subleases the floor space to the third party(s)pursuant to terms and
conditions agreed to by the CLEC and the third party(s)involved.The
CLEC and third party(s)must each be interconnectedto Verizon for
the exchange of traffic with Verizon and/or to access unbundled
network elements.The CLEC is solely responsible for determiningwhethertosubleaseasharedcagedcollocationarrangementandif so,
upon what terms and conditions.Verizon will not issue separate billing
for any of the rate elements associated with the subleased caged
collocation arrangement between the CLEC and the third party(s).The
CLEC will be responsible for ordering and payment of all collocation
applicable services ordered by the CLEC and the third party(s).Each
CLEC and third party will be responsible for ordering their own
unbundled network elementsfrom Verizon.Verizon will separately bill
the CLEC and third party/parties for unbundled network elements
ordered.The CLEC and third party(s)are Verizon's customers and
have all the rights and obligations applicable hereunder to CLECs
purchasing collocation-related services,including,without limitation,
the obligation to pay all applicable charges,whether or not the CLEC is
reimbursed for all or any portion of such charges by the third party(s).
All terms and conditions for caged collocation as described in this
Attachment will apply to subleased caged collocation requirements.
1.1.4 Caqeless.Cageless collocation is a form of collocation in which CLECs
can place their equipment in Verizon Premises.A cageless collocation
arrangement allows a CLEC,using Verizon approved vendors,to
install equipment in single bay increments in an area designated by
Verizon.The equipment location will be designated by Verizon and will
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 112
vary based on individual Verizon Premise configurations.CLEC
equipment will not share the same equipment bays with Verizon
equipment.
1.1.5 Adlacent.An adjacent collocation arrangement permits a CLEC to
construct or procure a structure on Verizon propertyfor collocation for
the purposes of interconnection and/or access to UNEs in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.Adjacent collocation
is only an option when the following conditions are met:(1)space is
legitimately exhausted in Verizon's Premisefor caged and cageless
collocation;and (2)it is technically feasible to construct or procure a
hut or similar structure on Verizon property that adheres to local
building code,zoning requirements,and Verizon building standards.
OneEighty is responsible for complying with all zoning requirements,
any federal,state or local regulations,ordinances and laws,and
obtaining all associated permits.Verizon may,where required,
participate in the zoning approval and permit acquisitions.OneEighty
may not take any action in establishing an adjacent structure that will
force Verizon to violate any zoning requirements or any federal,state,
or local regulations,ordinances,or laws.
Any construction by OneEighty on Verizon property must comply with
Verizon's technical specifications as they relate to environmental
safety and grounding requirements.Verizon will make available power
and physical collocation services to OneEighty in the same non-
discriminatory manner as it provides itself for its own remote
equipment buildings (REBs).
1.1.6 Virtual.Under virtual collocation,Verizon installs and maintains
OneEighty provided equipment which is dedicated to the exclusive use
of the OneEighty in a collocation arrangement.Additional-details on
Virtual Collocation are set forth in Section 1.9.
1.1.7 Microwave.Physical collocation of microwave transmission facilities will
be permitted on a first-come,first-served basis except where such
collocation is not practical for technical reasons or because of space
limitations.Microwave collocation provides for the interconnection of
OneEighty or Verizon provided facilities,equipment and support
structures located in,on or above the exterior walls and roof of Verizon
premises.Additional details on Microwave Collocation are set forth in
Section 1.10.

installation of equipment in a cage,bay or cabinet,
OneEighty and Verizon must conduct a joint inspection of
the designated collocation space.Verizon shall notify
OneEighty of the date the collocation arrangement is ready
for the joint inspection.OneEighty has ten (10)Business
Days to meet Verizon at the site of the collocation
arrangement.Upon acceptance of the arrangement by
OneEighty,billing will be initiated,access cards will be
issued and OneEighty may begin installation of equipment.
If OneEighty does not attend the joint inspection within the
specified ten (10)Business Days,Verizon will initiate billing
for all monthly and nonrecurring charges.
1.3.1.3 Unconditioned space conversion timeframes fall outside the
normal intervals and are negotiated on an individual case
basis based on negotiations with the site preparation
vendor(s).Verizon will use its best efforts to minimize the
additional time required to condition collocation space,and
will inform OneEighty of the time estimates as soon as
possible.
1.3.2 Forecastinq and Use of Data.
1.3.2.1 Verizon will request Caged and Cageless forecasts from
OneEighty on a semi-annual basis,with each forecast
covering a two-year period.OneEighty will be requiredto
update the near-term (6-month)forecasted application
dates.Information requested will include central office,
month applications are expected to be sent,requested in-
service month,preference for Caged or Cageless
collocation,and square footage required.
1.3.2.2 Unforecasted demand will be given a lesser priority than
forecasted demand.Verizon will make every attempt to
meet standard intervals for unforecasted requests.
However,if unanticipated requests push demand beyond
Verizon's capacity limits,Verizon will negotiate longer
intervals as required (and within reason).In general,if
forecasts are received less than two (2)months prior to the
application date,the interval start day may be postponed as
follows:
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 117
1.3.2.2.1 No forecast:Interval Start Date commences two
(2)months after application date.
1.3.2.2.2 Forecast received one month prior to application
date:Interval Start Date commences two (2)
months after application date.
1.3.2.2.3 Forecast receivedtwo (2)months prior to
application date:Interval Start Date commences
one month after application date.
Any such interval adjustments will be discussed with
OneEighty at the time the application is received.
1.3.3 Collocation Capacity.
1.3.3.1 Verizon's estimate of its present capacity (i.e.,no more than
an increase of 15%over the average number of
applications received for the preceding three months in a
particular geographic area)is based on current staffing and
current vendor arrangements.If the forecasts indicate
spikes in demand,Verizon will attempt to smooth the
demand via negotiations with the forecasting CLECs.If
Verizon and OneEighty fail to agree to smooth demand,
Verizon will determine if additional expenditures would be
required to satisfy the spikes in demand and will work with
the Commission Staff to determine whether such additional
expenditure is warranted and to evaluate cost recovery
options.
1.3.3.2 If Verizon augments its workforce based on forecasts,
Verizon reserves the right to hold CLECs accountable for
the accuracy of their forecasts.
1.3.4 Vendor Capacity.Verizon will continuously seek to improve vendor
performance for all premises work,including collocation.Since the
vendors require notice in order to meet increases in demand,Verizon
will share OneEighty actual and forecasted demand with appropriate
vendors,as required,subject to the appropriate confidentiality
safeguards.Verizon will seek assistance from the CLECs to resolve
vendor inability to meet demands.
1.3.5 Responsibility for Vendor Delays.No party shall be excused from their
obligations due to the acts or omissions of a Party's subcontractors,
material,men,suppliers or other third persons providing such products
or services to such Party unless such acts or omissions are the
product of a Force Majeure Event,or unless such delay or failure and
the consequences thereof are beyond the reasonable control and
without the fault or negligence of the Party claiming excusabledelay or
failure to perform.
1.3.6 Space Preparation.
1.3.6.1 Caqe Construction.For caged collocation,OneEighty may
construct the cage with a standard enclosure if they are a
Verizon approved contractor or OneEighty may subcontract
this work to a Verizon approved contractor.
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 118
1.3.6.2 Site Selection/Power.Verizon shall designate the space
within its Premise where OneEighty shall collocate its
equipment.Verizon will assign collocation space to
OneEighty in a just,reasonable,and nondiscriminatory
manner.Verizon will allow OneEighty requesting caged or
cageless collocation to submit space preferences on theApplicationFormpriortoassigningcagedandcageless
collocation space to OneEighty.Verizon will assign caged
and cageless space in accordance with the following
standards:(1)OneEighty's collocation costs cannot be
materially increased by the assignment;(2)OneEighty's
occupation and use of Verizon's premises cannot be
materially delayed by the assignment;(3)The assignment
cannot impair the quality of service or impose other
limitations on the service OneEighty wishes to offer;and (4)
The assignment cannot reduce unreasonably the total
space available for caged and cageless collocation,or
precludeunreasonably,caged and cageless collocation
within Verizon's premises.
Verizon may assign caged and cageless collocation to
space separate from space housing Verizon's equipment,
provided that each of the following conditions is met:(1)
Either legitimate security concerns,or operational
constraints unrelated to Verizon's or any of its affiliates'or
subsidiaries competitive concerns,warrant such separation;
(2)Any caged and cageless collocation space assigned to
an affiliate or subsidiary of Verizon is separated from space
housingVerizon's equipment;(3)The separated space will
be available in the same time frame as,or a shorter time
frame than,non-separated space;(4)The cost of the
separated space to OneEighty will not be materially higher
than the cost of non-separated space;and (5)The
separated space is comparable,from a technical and
engineering standpoint,to non-separated space.
Where applicable,Verizon shall provide,at the rates set
forth in Appendix A described in Section 1.5.1,48V DC
power with generator and/or battery back-up,heat,air
conditioning and other environmental support to
OneEighty's equipment in the same standards and
parameters required for Verizon equipment within that
Verizon Premise.OneEighty may install AC convenience
outlets and overhead lighting if OneEighty is a Verizon
approved contractor,or this work may be subcontracted to a
Verizon approved contractor.
1.3.6.3 DC Power.Verizon will provide DC power to the collocation
arrangement as specified by OneEighty in its Collocation
application.The OneEighty will specify the load on each
feed and the size of the fuse to be placed on each feed.
Charges for DC power will be applied based on the total
number of load amps ordered on each feed.
For example,if OneEighty orders a total of 40 load amps of
DC power and an A and B feed,OneEighty could order20
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 119
load amps on the A fced and 20 load amps on the B feed.Verizon will pcrmit OneEighty to order a fuse size up to 2.5
times the load amps ordered provided that applicable law
permits this practice.Thus,OneEighty could order that
each feed be fused at 50 amps if OneEighty wants one feed
to carry the entire load in the event the other feed fails.
Accordingly,OneEighty will be charged on the basis of the
total number of load amps ordered,i.e.,40 amps,and not
based on the total number of amps available for the fuse
size ordered.
1.3.6.4 OneEighty is responsible for engineering the power
consumption in its Collocation arrangements and therefore
must consider any special circumstances in determining thefusedcapacityofeachfeed.Verizon will engineer the
power feeds to the Collocation arrangement in accordance
with industry standards based upon requirements ordered
by OneEighty in its Collocation application.Any subsequentorderstoincreaseDCpowerloadataCollocation
arrangement must be submitted on a Collocation
application.
1.3.6.5 Verizon reserves the right to perform random inspectionsto
verify the actual power load being drawn by a Collocation
arrangement.At any time,without written notice,Verizon
may measure the DC power drawn at an arrangement by
monitoring the power distribution point.In those instanceswhereVerizonneedsaccesstotheCollocation
arrangement to make these measurements,Verizon will
schedule a joint meeting with OneEighty.
1.3.6.6 If the inspection reveals that the power being drawn does
not exceed the total number of load amps ordered,no
further action will apply.
1.3.6.7 If the inspection reveals that the power being drawn is
greater than 100%and up to 110%of the total number of
load amps ordered,Verizon will provide OneEighty with
written notification by certified U.S.Mail to the persondesignatedbyOneEightytoreceivesuchnoticethatmore
power is being drawn than was ordered.Within five (5)
Business Days of the date of notification,OneEighty must
reducethe power being drawn to match its ordered load orreviseitspowerrequirementtoaccommodatetheadditional
power being drawn.Failure to reduce the power beingdrawnorsubmitarevisedapplicationwithinthefive(5)
Business Days will result in an increase in the amount of
power being billed to 110%of the power ordered in the
application on file.
1.3.6.8 If the inspection reveals that the power being drawn is
greater than 110%of the total number of load amps
ordered,that arrangement is subject to the following
treatment:
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 120
1.3.6.8.1 Verizon will provide OneEighty with written
notification by certified U.S.Mail to the person
designated by OneEighty to receive such notice
that it has exceeded its ordered power.
1.3.6.8.2 Additional Labor charges,as set forth in
Appendix A,apply for the cost associated with
performingthis inspection.
1.3.6.8.3 Verizon will bill OneEighty for the full fused
capacity for each of the next six (6)bill periods
following the inspection.
1.3.6.8.4 After six (6)months of full fused capacity billing,
and upon receipt of an application to revisethe
power required at that arrangement,Verizon will
adjust the billing to reflect OneEighty's revised
power requirement.In the event that a revised
application is not submitted,billing at full fused
capacity will continue until a revised application
is received.
1.3.6.8.5 Within fifteen (15)Business Days of the date of
notification,OneEighty must submit a non-
scheduled attestation of the power being drawn
at each of its remaining Collocation
arrangements.Failure to submit this non-
scheduled attestation will result in the
application of Additional Labor charges set forth
in Appendix A for any subsequent DC power
inspections Verizon performs prior to receipt of
the next scheduled attestation.Scheduled
attestations are described in Section 1.3.6.9
following.
1.3.6.9 Annually,OneEighty must submit a written statement
signed by a responsible officer of OneEighty,which attests
that it is not exceeding the total load of power as ordered in
its Collocation applications.This attestation,which must be
received by Verizon no later than the last day of June,shall
individually list all of OneEighty's completed Collocation
arrangements provided by Verizon in all of its operating
territories.If OneEighty fails to submit this written statement
by the last day in June,Verizon will notify OneEighty in
writing that it has thirty (30 days)to submit its power
attestation.Failureto submit the required statement within
the 30 day notice period will result in the billing of DC power
at each Collocation arrangement to be increased to the total
number of amps fused.
1.3.6.10 Whenever Verizon is required to perform work on an
Collocation arrangement as a result of OneEighty's order for
a reduction in power requirements (e.g.,change in fuse
size),Verizon will assess a nonrecurring charge for the
additional labor.The nonrecurring charge applies for the
first half hour (or fraction thereof)and for each additional
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 121
half hour (or fraction thereof)per technician,per occurrence
as shown in Appendix A.
1.3.6.11 If OneEighty orders a change in the power configuration
requiring new -48 volt DC power feeds to the Collocation
arrangement,Verizon will require an Engineering/Major
Augment Fee with an application,as set forth in Appendix
A,subject to the terms and conditions described in Section
1.2.5.In addition,if OneEighty's order for a reduction in DC
power triggers the deployment of power cabling to adifferentpowerdistributionpoint,the Engineering/Major
Augment Fee as set forth in Appendix A applies.Verizon
will work cooperatively with OneEighty to configure the new
power distribution cables and disconnect the old ones.
1.3.7 Equipment and Facilities.
1.3.7.1 Purchase of Equipment.OneEighty will be responsiblefor
supply,purchase,delivery,installation and maintenanceof
its equipment and equipment bay(s)in the collocationarea.
Verizon is not responsible for the design,engineering,or
performance of OneEighty's equipment and provided
facilities for collocation.Upon installation of all transmission
and power cables for collocation services,OneEighty
relinquishes all rights,title and ownership of transmission
(excludingfiber entrance facility cable)and power cables to
Verizon.
1.3.7.2 Permissible Equipment.Verizon shall permit the collocation
and use of any equipment necessary for interconnectionor
access to unbundled network elements in accordancewith
the following standards:(1)Equipment is necessaryfor
interconnection if an inability to deploy that equipment
would,as a practical,economic,or operational matter,
preclude OneEightyfrom obtaining interconnectionwith
Verizon at a level equal in quality to that which Verizon
obtains within its own network or Verizon provides to any of
its affiliates,subsidiaries,or other parties;and (2)
Equipment is necessaryfor access to an unbundled
network element if an inability to deploy that equipment
would,as a practical,economic,or operational matter,
preclude OneEighty from obtaining nondiscriminatory
access to that unbundled network element,includingany of
its features,functions,or capabilities.
Multi-functional equipment shall be deemed necessary for
interconnection or access to an unbundled network element
if and only if the primary purpose and function of the
equipment,as OneEighty seeks to deploy it,meets either or
both of the standards set forth in the preceding paragraph.
For a piece of equipment to be utilized primarily to obtain
equal in quality interconnection or nondiscriminatoryaccess
to one or more unbundled network elements,there also
must be a logical nexus between the additional functions the
equipment would perform and the telecommunication
services OneEighty seeks to provide to its customers by
means of the interconnection or unbundled network
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 122
element.The collocation of those functions of the
equipment that,as stand-alone functions,do not meet either
of the standards set forth in the preceding paragraph must
not cause the equipment to significantly increase the burden
on Verizon's property.
Whenever Verizon objects to collocation of equipment by
OneEighty for purposes within the scope of Section
251(c)(6)of the Act,Verizon shall prove to the state
commission that the equipment is not necessary for
interconnection or access to unbundled network elements
under the standards set forth above.
OneEighty may place in its caged collocation space
ancillary equipment such as cross connect frames,and
metal storage cabinets.Metal storage cabinets must meet
Verizon Premise environmental standards.

performance and reliability standards as Verizon imposes
on its own equipment as defined in Verizon's RNSA-NEB-
95-0003,Revision 10 or higher.
In addition,OneEighty may install equipment that has been
deployed by Verizon for five (5)years or more with a proven
safety record.
Verizon reserves the right to remove facilities and
equipment from its list of approved products if such
products,facilities,and equipment are determined to be no
longer compliant with NEBS standards or Electromagnetic
Compatibility and Electrical Safety Generic Criteria for
Network Telecommunications Equipment (GR-1089-CORE).
Verizon will provide 90 days'notice of the change unless it
is due to an emergency that renders notice impossible.

shared conduit with dedicated inner duct.If OneEighty
provides its own fiber optic facility,then OneEighty shall be
responsible for bringing its fiber optic cable to the Verizon
Premise manhole.OneEighty must leave sufficient cable
length for Verizon to be able to fully extend such cable
through to OneEighty's collocation space.
1.3.7.5 Manhole/Splicinq Restrictions.Verizon reserves the right to
prohibit all equipment and facilities,other than fiber optic
cable,in its manholes.OneEighty will not be permitted to
splice fiber optic cable in the first manhole outside of the
Verizon Premise.Where OneEighty is providing
underground fiber optic cable in Manhole #1,it must be of
sufficient length as specified by Verizon to be pulled through
the Verizon Premise to OneEighty's collocation space.
Verizon is responsible for installing a cable splice,if
necessary,where OneEighty provided fiber optic cable
meets Verizon standards within the Verizon Premise cable
vault or designated splicing chamber.Verizon will provide
space and racking for the placement of an approved
secured fire retardant splice enclosure.
1.3.7.6 Access Points and Restrictions.Points of interconnection
and demarcation between OneEighty'sfacilities and
Verizon's facilities will be designated by Verizon.This
point(s)will be a direct connection(s)to OneEighty's
network.Verizon shall havethe right to require OneEighty
to terminate collocation facilities onto a Point of Termination

completion of the installation work.OneEighty may also
utilize a staging trailer,which can be located on the exterior
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 124
premises of Verizon Premise.Verizon may assess
OneEighty a market value lease rate for the area occupied
by the trailer.
1.3.7.8 Testinq.Upon installation of OneEighty's equipment,and
with prior notice,Verizon will schedule time to work with
OneEighty during the turn-up phase of the equipmentto
ensure properfunctionality between OneEighty's equipment
and the connections to Verizon equipment.The time period
for this to occur will correspondto Verizon's maintenance
window installation requirements.It is solely the
responsibility of OneEighty to provide their own monitor and
test points,if required,for connection directly to its terminal
equipment.
1.3.7.9 Interconnection Between Collocated Spaces.Dedicated
Transit Service (DTS),which allows for interconnection
between OneEighty and anotherCLEC,provides a dedicated
electrical or optical path between collocation arrangements
(caged,cageless,and virtual)of the same or of two ddferent
CLECs within the same Verizon premises,using Verizon
provideddistribution facilities.DTS is availablefor DSO,DS1,
DS3,and dark fibercross connects,In addition,Verizon will
also provideother technically feasible cross-connection
arrangements,including lit fiber,on an Individual Case Basis
(ICB)as requested by OneEighty and agreed to by Verizon.
Verizon will offerDTS to OneEighty as long as such access is
technically feasible.
DTS is only availablewhen both collocation arrangements
(either caged,cageless,and/or virtual)being interconnected are

equipment is used for interconnection with Verizon and/or for
access to the Verizon's unbundlednetwork elements.Verizon
shall providesuch DTS connections from OneEighty's
collocation arrangementto anothercollocation arrangementof
OneEighty within the same Verizon premises,or to a
collocation arrangementof anotherCLEC in the same Verizon
premises.DTS is providedat the same transmission level from
OneEightyto anotherCLEC.
The DTS arrangementrequires OneEighty to providecable
assignment information for itself as well as for the other CLEC.
Verizon will not make cable assignments for DTS.OneEighty
is responsible for all DTS ordering,bill payment,disconnect
orders and maintenance transactions and is the customer of
record.When initiating a DTS request,OneEighty must
submit an Access Service Request (ASR)and a letter of
agency from the CLEC it is connecting to that authorizes the
DTS connection and facility assignment.DTS is providedon a
negotiated interval with OneEighty.
1.3.7.10 Optical Facility Terminations.If OneEighty requests access
to unbundled dark fiber and unbundled optical interoffice
facilities,OneEighty may apply for a fiber optic patchcord
connection(s)between Verizon's fiber distribution panel
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 125

computerized tracking systems,identification swipe cards,
keyed access and/or logs,as deemed appropriate by
Verizon.
Verizon may require OneEighty employees and contractors
to use a central or separate entrance to Verizon's premises,
provided,however,that where Verizon requires that
OneEighty employees or contractors access collocated
equipment only through a separate entrance,employees
and contractors of Verizon's affiliates and subsidiaries will
be subject to the same restriction.
Verizon may construct or require the construction of a
separate entrance to access caged and cageless
collocation space,provided that each of the following
conditions is met:(i)Construction of a separate entrance is
technically feasible;(ii)Either legitimate security concerns,
or operational constraints unrelated to the incumbent's or
any of its affiliates'or subsidiaries competitive concerns,
warrant such separation;(iii)Construction of a separate
entrance will not artificially delay collocation provisioning;
OneEighty ID Comp v2.3.doc 127
and (iv)Construction of a separate entrance will not
materially increase OneEighty's collocation costs.
1.3.10.3 Access Cards/ldentification.Access cards or keys will be
provided to no more than a reasonable number of
individuals for OneEighty for each Verizon Premisefor the
purpose of installation,maintenance and repair of

days of the date at which a Verizon Premise runs out of caged and
cageless collocation space.This information will be listed at the
following public Internet URL:http://www.qte.com/requlatory.Where
Verizon has denied caged and cageless collocation requests at a
Verizon Premise due to space limitations or other technical reasons,
Verizon shall:(a)submit to the state commission,subject to any
protective order as the state may deem necessary,detailed floor plans
or diagrams of the Verizon Premise which show what space,if any,
Verizon or any of its affiliates has reserved for future use;and describe
in detail,the specific future uses for which the space has been
