Common use of Joint Testing Clause in Contracts

Joint Testing. 8.1.1.12.1 Qwest’s Joint Testing Process ("Joint Testing") at the Interconnection Collocation Distribution Frame (ICDF) allows a CLEC to request Qwest to participate in Joint Testing of CLEC terminations at the ICDF once CLEC’s equipment has been placed in CLEC’s Collocation. The ICDF may be located at various points in the Qwest Wire Center including, but not limited to, a stand alone intermediate frame, Main Distribution Frame (MDF), fiber distribution panel (FDP), and existing Digital Cross Connect (DSX) frames. CLEC shall have access to all such points in the Qwest Wire Center where CLEC cabling terminates. 8.1.1.12.2 If Joint Testing shows that Qwest has incorrectly installed any Collocation facilities such that CLEC cannot use the Collocation to order services and facilities, Qwest shall promptly correct the error(s). If any corrections require ordering of materials, Qwest and CLEC will coordinate the ordering of materials. When the materials are received and the corrections made, the Parties will jointly retest until resolution. If terminations identified for testing show a greater than 2% error rate, and it is determined that the errors are Qwest errors, CLEC will not be charged for the Joint Test and any such retesting.
