Loop Feeder. The "Loop Feeder" is the Network Element that provides connectivity between (a) an FDI associated with Loop Distribution and a termination point appropriate for the media in a central office, or (b) a Loop Concentrator/Multiplexer provided in a remote terminal and a termination point appropriate for the media in a central office. ILEC shall provide CLEC physical access to the FDI, and the right to connect the Loop Feeder to the FDI. The physical medium of the Loop Feeder may be copper twisted pair, or single or multi-mode fiber as designated by CLEC. In certain cases, CLEC will require a copper twisted pair loop even in instances where the medium of the Loop Feeder for services that ILEC offers is other than a copper facility. In such cases, CLEC must compensate ILEC for all additional costs related to providing the copper facility.
