Direct Connect (DC Sample Clauses

Direct Connect (DC. BellSouth will permit TelCove to interconnect directly between TelCove’s virtual and/or physical collocation arrangements within the same Premises by utilizing a DC. TelCove must use a BellSouth Certified Supplier to place the DC. The DC shall be provisioned through facilities owned by TelCove. In those cases where TelCove’s virtual and/or physical collocation space is contiguous in the central office, TelCove will have the option of using TelCove’s own technicians to deploy DC’s using either electrical or optical facilities between the collocation spaces and constructing its own dedicated cable support structure. TelCove will deploy such optical or electrical connections directly between its own facilities without being routed through BellSouth equipment. TelCove may not self-provision DC’s on any BellSouth distribution frame, POT, DSX or LGX. 3.11.1 TelCove is responsible for ensuring the integrity of the signal. TelCove-provisioned DC’s shall utilize common cable support structure. There will be a recurring charge per linear foot, and a nonrecurring charge per cable, of the actual common cable support structure used. In the case of two (2) contiguous collocation arrangements, TelCove will have the option of using TelCove’s own technicians to construct its own dedicated support structure. 3.11.2 To request or self-provision DCs, TelCove must submit an Initial Application or Subsequent Application. If no modification to the Collocation Space is requested other than the placement of DC’s, the Co-Carrier Cross Connect/Direct Connect Only Application Fee for DC, as defined in Exhibit B, will apply. If modifications in addition to the placement of DC’s are requested, the Initial Application or Subsequent Application Fee will apply. This nonrecurring fee will be billed by BellSouth on the date that BellSouth provides an Application Response.
