Fiber-Meet. 3.3.1 If the Parties Interconnect their networks pursuant to a Fiber-Meet, the Parties shall jointly engineer and operate a single Synchronous Optical Network (“SONET”) transmission system. Unless otherwise mutually agreed, this SONET transmission system shall be configured, engineered, installed, and maintained as described in this Article III and agreed to by the Implementation Team.
Fiber-Meet. III.3.1 If the Parties Interconnect their networks pursuant to a Fiber-Meet, the Parties shall jointly engineer and operate a single Synchronous Optical Network (“SONET”) transmission system. Unless otherwise mutually agreed, this SONET transmission system shall be configured as illustrated in Exhibit A, and engineered, installed, and maintained as described in this Article III and in the Plan (as defined in Section 18.2). Each Party agrees to disable the Digital Control Channel (“DCC”) in its equipment that is part of the SONET system and each Party shall be responsible for the monitoring of its own node(s).
Fiber-Meet. 3.8.1 Fiber Meet Interconnection between SBC-AMERITECH and CLEC can occur at any mutually agreeable and technically feasible point between CLEC’s premises and an SBC-AMERITECH Tandem or End Office within each LATA.
Fiber-Meet. 4.3.1 If the Parties Interconnect their networks pursuant to a Fiber-Meet, the Parties shall jointly engineer and operate a single Synchronous Optical Network (“SONET”) transmission system. The Parties will agree upon the specific Optical Line Terminating Multiplexor (“OLTM”) equipment to be utilized at each end of the SONET transmission system.
Fiber-Meet. Notwithstanding Sections 3.2.1, 3.2.2, and 3.2.3 above, if ComSouth elects to establish interconnection with BellSouth pursuant to a Fiber Meet Local Channel, ComSouth and BellSouth shall jointly engineer, operate and maintain a Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) transmission system by which they shall interconnect their transmission and routing of Local Traffic and ISP-Bound Traffic via a Local Channel at either the DS1 or DS3 level. The Parties shall work jointly to determine the specific transmission system. However, ComSouth’s SONET transmission system must be compatible with BellSouth’s equipment, and the Data Communications Channel (DCC) must be turned off.
Fiber-Meet. 1.11.1 "Fiber-Meet" is an interconnection arrangement whereby the Parties physically interconnect their networks via an optical fiber interface (as opposed to an electrical interface) at a mutually agreed upon location, at which one Party's facilities, provisioning, and maintenance responsibility begins and the other Party's responsibility ends (i.e. Point Of Interface).
Fiber-Meet. The Parties agree to establish technical interface specifications for Fiber Meet arrangements that permit the successful interconnection and completion of traffic routed over the facilities that interconnect at the Fiber Meet. The technical specifications will be designed so that each Party may, as far as is technically feasible, independently select the transmission, multiplexing, and fiber terminating equipment to be used on its side of the Fiber Meet, as defined in Section 6.
Fiber-Meet. 1.6.1.Where the Parties interconnect their networks pursuant to a Fiber Meet, the Parties shall jointly engineer and operate this Interconnection as a point to point linear chain SONET transmission system. Only Interconnection trunks shall be provisioned over this facility. Neither Party will be allowed to access the Data Communications Channel (“DCC”) of the other Party’s Fiber Optic Terminal (FOT). The Fiber Meet will be designed so that each Party may, as far as is technically feasible, independently select the transmission, multiplexing, and fiber terminating equipment to be used on its side of the POI(s). The Parties will work cooperatively to achieve equipment and vendor compatibility of the FOT equipment. Requirements for such Interconnection specifications will be defined in joint engineering planning sessions between the Parties. The Parties may share the investment of the fiber as mutually agreed. The Parties will use good faith efforts to develop and agree on these facility arrangements upon the determination by the Parties that such specifications shall be implemented, and in any case, prior to the establishment of any Fiber Meet arrangements between them.
Fiber-Meet. 3.2.1 If ALEC elects to establish a Point of Interconnection with BellSouth pursuant to a Fiber Meet, ALEC and BellSouth shall jointly engineer and operate a Synchronous Optical Network ("SONET") transmission system by which they shall interconnect their transmission and routing of local traffic via a Local Channel facility at either the DS0, DS1, or DS3 level and shall be ordered via an Access Services Request (“ASR”) in the initial phase of this offering. The Parties shall work jointly to determine the specific transmission system. However, ALEC’s SONET transmission must be compatible with BellSouth’s equipment in the serving wire center. The same vendor’s equipment and software version must be used, and the Data Communications Channel (DCC) must be turned off.
Fiber-Meet. 3.4.1 Notwithstanding Section 3.2.1, 3.2.2, and 3.2.3 above, if PBT elects to establish interconnection with BellSouth pursuant to a Fiber Meet Local Channel, PBT and BellSouth shall jointly engineer, operate and maintain a Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) transmission system by which they shall interconnect their transmission and routing of Local Traffic via a Local Channel at either the DS1 or DS3 level. The Parties shall work jointly to determine the specific transmission system. However, PBT’s SONET transmission system must be compatible with BellSouth’s equipment, and the Data Communications Channel (DCC) must be turned off.
