Dark Fiber IOF definition

Dark Fiber IOF means two continuous fiber optic strands (a pair) that are located within a fiber optic cable sheath between either (a) two BA central offices or (b) a BA central office and a NEXTLINK central office, but, in either case, that are not connected to any equipment used or that can be used to transmit and receive telecommunications traffic. A strand shall not be deemed to be continuous if a new splice or other means of connection must be installed in order to provide fiber continuity between two locations. When NEXTLINK submits an order for a Dark Fiber Loop or a Dark Fiber IOF, such fiber may not conform to industry transmission standards, either the ones in effect when BA installed such fiber or the ones in effect at the time of such order. Notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Amendment or in the Interconnection Agreement, BA shall provide NEXTLINK with access to Dark Fiber Loops and Dark Fiber IOF in accordance with, but only to the extent required by, Applicable Law.
