Common use of Unbundled Network Terminating Wire (UNTW) Clause in Contracts

Unbundled Network Terminating Wire (UNTW). 2.8.3.1 UNTW is twisted copper wiring or any future type of facility other than copper that BellSouth deploys and has not been proven to be unfeasible to unbundle, that extends from BellSouth’s garden terminal on the side of a building or telecommunication equipment room or wiring closet that is typically located on each floor of a multi-story building to the point of demarcation at the end user’s location. UNTW is the “last” part of the loop on the BellSouth network side of the demarcation point. 2.8.3.2 This element will be provided in Multi-Dwelling Units (MDUs) and/or Multi- Tenants Units (MTUs) where either Party owns or controls wiring all the way to the End User’s premises. Neither Party will provide this element in locations where the property owner provides its own wiring to the End User’s premises, where a third party owns the wiring to the End User’s premises. 2.8.3.2.1 BellSouth will install the IAT within sixty (60) days from the submission of the SI or as mutually agreed to by the parties. BellSouth shall install the IAT in properties identified by TCG in a SI process. 2.8.3.2.2 In garden apartment or campus MDU environments, the IAT shall be installed adjacent to BellSouth’s garden terminal unless TCG and BellSouth mutually agree otherwise. Each IAT installed in garden apartments or campus MDU environments will provide access to all UNTW pairs connected to the BellSouth garden terminal with which it is associated. 2.8.3.2.3 In high-rise environments IATs will be installed in the wiring closet adjacent to BellSouth’s distribution and riser cable terminals unless TCG and BellSouth mutually agree otherwise. Each IAT installed in a wiring closet will provide access to UNTW pairs at rates set forth in Exhibit A. 2.8.3.2.4 Once the IATs are installed, TCG’s employees will have access to the IAT without the necessity of coordinating such efforts with BellSouth’s employees or agents. 2.8.3.2.5 BellSouth's provision of IATs shall fulfill BellSouth's obligation to provide a SPOI. 2.8.3.2.6 Upon request by BellSouth, TCG will engage in negotiations with BellSouth for the purpose of defining mutually agreeable terms, conditions and charges that grant BellSouth access to retail customers in MDUs where TCG owns the network terminating wire available to serve the retail customer. The terms and conditions set forth in Subsections 2.8.3.3.11 – 2.8.3.3.14 of this Section shall be incorporated in any agreement negotiated between BellSouth and TCG for BellSouth’s access to TCG’s NTW. If the Parties are unable to reach agreement as to such terms, conditions and charges within sixty (60) days following BellSouth’s request, then either Party, at its option, shall petition the Commission for resolution of the disputed terms.
