Transport, Channelization and Dark Fiber Clause Samples

The "Transport, Channelization and Dark Fiber" clause defines the terms and conditions under which telecommunications infrastructure, such as fiber optic cables and related transmission capacity, is provided, managed, or accessed between parties. This clause typically outlines responsibilities for the installation, maintenance, and use of transport facilities, specifies how channelization (the division of fiber capacity into separate channels for different users or services) is handled, and addresses the leasing or use of dark fiber (unused fiber optic strands). Its core function is to allocate rights and obligations regarding the physical and logical use of network infrastructure, ensuring both parties understand their roles and reducing the risk of disputes over access, maintenance, or capacity usage.

Transport, Channelization and Dark Fiber. 6.1 Transport AMENDMENT EXHIBIT 1 6.1.1 BellSouth shall provide nondiscriminatory access, in accordance with FCC Rules 51.311, 51.319, and Section 251(c)(3) of the Act to interoffice transmission facilities described in this Section 6 on an unbundled basis to Seven Bridges for the provision of a qualifying service, as set forth herein. 6.1.1.1 Dedicated Transport is defined as BellSouth’s interoffice transmission facilities, dedicated to a particular customer or carrier that Seven Bridges uses for transmission between wire centers or switches owned by BellSouth and within the same LATA. 6.1.1.2 Dark Fiber Transport, defined as BellSouth’s optical transmission facilities without attached signal regeneration, multiplexing, aggregation or other electronics, between wire centers or switches owned by BellSouth and within the same LATA; 6.1.1.3 Common (Shared) Transport, defined as transmission facilities shared by more than one carrier, including BellSouth, between end office switches, between end office switches and tandem switches, and between tandem switches, in BellSouth’s network. Where BellSouth Network Elements are connected by intraoffice wiring, such wiring is provided as part of the Network Element and is not Common (Shared) Transport. 6.1.1.3.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, BellSouth will only provide unbundled access to Common (Shared) Transport to the extent BellSouth is required to provide and is providing unbundled Local Circuit Switching to Seven Bridges. 6.1.2 BellSouth shall: 6.1.2.1 Provide Seven Bridges exclusive use of Dedicated Transport to a particular customer or carrier, or shared use of the features, functions, and capabilities of interoffice transmission facilities shared by more than one customer or carrier; 6.1.2.2 Provide all technically feasible features, functions, and capabilities of the transport facility; 6.1.2.3 Permit, to the extent technically feasible, Seven Bridges to connect such interoffice facilities to equipment designated by Seven Bridges, including but not limited to, Seven Bridges’s collocated facilities; and 6.1.2.4 Permit, to the extent technically feasible, Seven Bridges to obtain the functionality provided by BellSouth’s digital cross-connect systems. 6.1.3 Technical Requirements of Common (Shared) Transport 6.1.3.1 Common (Shared) Transport provided on DS1, DS3, and STS-1 circuits shall at a minimum meet the performance, availability, jitter, and delay requirements AMENDMENT EXHIBIT 1 ...

Related to Transport, Channelization and Dark Fiber

  • Dark Fiber Transport Dark Fiber Transport is defined as Dedicated Transport that consists of unactivated optical interoffice transmission facilities without attached signal regeneration, multiplexing, aggregation or other electronics. Except as set forth in Section 6.9.1 below, BellSouth shall not be required to provide access to Dark Fiber Transport Entrance Facilities pursuant to this Agreement.

  • Transport Services Upon the conclusion of such multilateral negotiations, the Parties shall conduct a review for the purpose of discussing appropriate amendments to this Agreement so as to incorporate the results of such multilateral negotiations.

  • Transporting Students 1. Employees shall not transport students except in accordance with School Board rules. The Board shall adopt a school board policy outlining the teacher’s and the Board’s responsibilities and liabilities. Said policy shall be included in all school handbooks beginning with the 2004-05 school year. 2. Teachers will not be required to transport pupils to and from activities which take place away from the school grounds.

  • SHIPPING AND AIR TRANSPORT 1. Profits of an enterprise of a Contracting State from the operation of ships or aircraft in international traffic shall be taxable only in that State. 2. The provisions of paragraph 1 shall also apply to profits from the participation in a pool, a joint business or an international operating agency.

  • Loop Provisioning Involving Integrated Digital Loop Carriers 2.6.1 Where Freedom has requested an Unbundled Loop and BellSouth uses IDLC systems to provide the local service to the End User and BellSouth has a suitable alternate facility available, BellSouth will make such alternative facilities available to Freedom. If a suitable alternative facility is not available, then to the extent it is technically feasible, BellSouth will implement one of the following alternative arrangements for Freedom (e.g. hairpinning): 1. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to any spare copper that exists to the customer premises. 2. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to an existing DLC that is not integrated. 3. If capacity exists, provide "side-door" porting through the switch. 4. If capacity exists, provide "Digital Access Cross Connect System (DACS)- door" porting (if the IDLC routes through a DACS prior to integration into the switch). 2.6.2 Arrangements 3 and 4 above require the use of a designed circuit. Therefore, non- designed Loops such as the SL1 voice grade and UCL-ND may not be ordered in these cases. 2.6.3 If no alternate facility is available, and upon request from Freedom, and if agreed to by both Parties, BellSouth may utilize its Special Construction (SC) process to determine the additional costs required to provision facilities. Freedom will then have the option of paying the one-time SC rates to place the Loop.
