Shared Physical Collocation Space Clause Samples

Shared Physical Collocation Space. (a) SBC-AMERITECH will make shared collocation cages available to CLEC. A shared collocation cage is a caged collocation space shared by two (2) or more collocators pursuant to the terms and conditions agreed to and between the collocators. In making shared Cage arrangements available, SBC-AMERITECH may not increase the cost of site preparation or nonrecurring charges above the cost of provisioning such a Cage of similar dimensions and material to a single collocating party. In those instances where SBC-AMERITECH receives applications simultaneously from multiple collocators who desire construction of a cage to be shared, SBC-AMERITECH will prorate the charge for site conditioning and preparation undertaken to construct the Shared Collocation Cage or condition the space, and allocate that charge to each collocator based upon the percentage of total space utilized by each collocator. (b) Except for certain charges identified as related to Shared Cage collocation, each collocator shall be billed separately and shall be able to order and provision separately.

In a sublease-type arrangement, the initial collocator(s) shall charge any such co-collocator no more than the pro-rated share (based upon square footage used exclusively or in common) or SBC- AMERITECH’s charges to the initial collocator(s). If two (2) or more collocators who have interconnection agreements with SBC- AMERITECH utilize a shared collocation cage, SBC-AMERITECH will permit each collocator to order UNEs to and provision service from that shared collocation s...
