Common use of Cable Clause in Contracts

Cable. Pathnet is required to provide proper cabling, based on circuit type (VF, DS0, xDSL, DS1, DS3, etc.) to ensure adequate shielding. GTE cable standards (which are set forth in the CSP) are required to reduce the possibility of interference. Pathnet is responsible for providing fire retardant riser cable that meets GTE standards. GTE is responsible for placing Pathnet's fire retardant riser cable from the cable vault to the collocation space. GTE is responsible for installing Pathnet provided fiber optic cable in the cable space or conduit from the first manhole outside of the wire center or access tandem into the wire center or access tandem. This may be shared conduit with dedicated inner duct. Where Pathnet is providing underground fiber optic cable in the first manhole outside of the wire center or access tandem, it must be of sufficient length as specified by GTE to be pulled through the wire center or access tandem to Pathnet’s collocation space. Due to physical and technical constraints, removal of cable will be at GTE's option. GTE will make every effort to contact Pathnet in the event Pathnet's equipment disrupts the network. If GTE is unable to make contact with Pathnet, GTE shall temporarily disconnect Pathnet's service, as provided in Section 4.7. GTE will notify Pathnet as soon as possible after any disconnects of Pathnet's equipment.
