Common use of Network Interconnection Architecture Clause in Contracts

Network Interconnection Architecture. Appalachian may interconnect with GTE at any of the minimum technically feasible points required by the FCC. Interconnection at additional points will be reviewed on an individual case basis. Where the Parties mutually agree following a Bona Fide Request to directly interconnect their respective networks, interconnection will be as specified in the following subsections. The "IPs" shall be set forth in Appendix A attached to this Agreement and made a part hereof. Based on the configuration, the installation timeline will vary considerably, however, GTE will work with Appalachian in all circumstances to install "IPs" within 120 calendar days absent extenuating circumstances. Internetwork connection and protocol must be based on industry standards developed consistent with Section 256 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. 4.1.1 Subject to mutual agreement, the Parties may use the following types of network facility interconnection, using such interface media as are (I) appropriate to support the type of interconnection requested and (ii) available at the facility at which interconnection is requested. For each "IP" set forth in Appendix A, the Parties shall specify the type of interconnection used at that "IP." (a) A Mid-Span Fiber Meet within an existing GTE exchange area whereby the Parties mutually agree to jointly plan and engineer their facility "IP" at a designated manhole or junction location. The "IP" is the demarcation between ownership of the fiber transmission facility. Each party is individually responsible for its incurred costs in establishing this arrangement.

The "IPs" shall be set forth in Appendix A B attached to this Agreement and made a part hereof. Based on the configuration, the installation timeline will vary considerably, however, GTE will work with Appalachian Tallgrass in all circumstances to install "IPs" within 120 calendar days absent extenuating circumstances. Internetwork connection and protocol must be based on industry standards developed consistent with Section 256 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. 4.1.1 Subject to mutual agreement, the Parties may use the following types of network facility interconnection, using such interface media as are (I) appropriate to support the type of interconnection requested and (ii) available at the facility at which interconnection is requested. For each "IP" set forth in Appendix AB, the Parties shall specify the type of interconnection used at that "IP." (a) A Mid-Span Fiber Meet within an existing GTE exchange area whereby the Parties mutually agree to jointly plan and engineer their facility "IP" at a designated manhole or junction location. The "IP" is the demarcation between ownership of the fiber transmission facility. Each party is individually responsible for its incurred costs in establishing this arrangement.

Network Interconnection Architecture. Appalachian Horizon may interconnect with GTE at any of the minimum technically feasible points required by the FCC. Interconnection at additional points will be reviewed on an individual case basis.
