Common use of Unbundled Loop Facility Certification Clause in Contracts

Unbundled Loop Facility Certification. 3.1.2.1. Before deploying any service enhancing copper cable technology (e.g., HDSL, ISDN, etc.) over unbundled 2-wire analog voice grade loops provided by GTE, AT&T shall notify GTE of such intentions to enable GTE to assess the loop transport facilities to determine whether there are any existing copper cable loop transport technologies (e.g., analog carrier, etc.) deployed within the same cable sheath that would be interfered with if AT&T deployed the proposed service enhancing copper cable technology. If there are existing copper cable loop transport technologies already deployed within the same cable sheath, or if GTE already has specific planned projects to deploy copper cable loop transport technologies within the next six months for which it can demonstrate a specific commitment by producing detailed engineering plans, GTE will so inform AT&T and AT&T shall not be permitted to deploy such service enhancing copper cable technologies.

Unbundled Loop Facility Certification. 3.1.2.1. 4.6.1 Before deploying any service enhancing copper cable technology (e.g., HDSL, ISDN, etc.) over unbundled 2-wire analog voice grade loops provided by leased from GTE, AT&T Hyperion shall notify GTE of such intentions to enable GTE to assess the loop transport facilities to determine whether there are any existing copper cable loop transport technologies (e.g., analog carrier, etc.) deployed within the same cable sheath that would be interfered with if AT&T Hyperion deployed the proposed service enhancing copper cable technology. If there are existing copper cable loop transport technologies already deployed within the same cable sheath, or if GTE already has specific planned projects existing near term (within 18 months of the date of facility certification) plans to deploy copper cable loop transport technologies within the next six months for which it can demonstrate a specific commitment by producing detailed engineering plansthat would be interfered with as described above, GTE will so inform AT&T Hyperion and AT&T Hyperion shall not be permitted to deploy such service enhancing copper cable technologies. GTE will charge Hyperion the applicable engineering, time and labor costs to perform the certification.
