Routine Network Modifications - UNE Dedicated Transport Clause Samples
The "Routine Network Modifications - UNE Dedicated Transport" clause defines the obligations and procedures for making standard, non-extraordinary changes to the telecommunications network infrastructure specifically related to Unbundled Network Element (UNE) dedicated transport facilities.
