unbundled network elements for the provision of telecommunications services. AT&T
will permit BHN to interconnect between its virtual or physical collocation
arrangement(s) and that (those) of another collocated telecommunications carrier
within the same “AT&T Premises”. Both BHN’s agreement and the other collocated
telecommunications carrier’s agreement must contain the CCXC rates, terms and
conditions before AT&T will permit the provisioning of CCXCs between the two
collocated carriers. BHN is prohibited from using the Collocation Space for the sole
or primary purpose of cross-connecting to other collocated telecommunications
carriers.
3.5.1 BHN must contract with a AT&T Certified Supplier to place the CCXC. The CCXC
shall be provisioned using facilities owned or leased by BHN. Such cross-connections
to other collocated telecommunications carriers may be made using either electrical or
optical facilities. BHN shall be responsible for providing a letter of authorization
(LOA), with the application, to AT&T from the other collocated telecommunications
carrier to which it will be cross-connecting. The BHN-provisioned CCXC shall utilize
AT&T common cable support structure. There will be a recurring charge per linear
foot, per cable, of common cable support structure used by BHN to provision the
CCXC to the other collocated telecommunications carrier. In those instances where
BHN’s equipment and the equipment of the other collocated telecommunications
carrier are located in contiguous caged Collocation Space, BHN may use its own
technicians to install co-carrier cross connects using either electrical or optical facilities
between the equipment of both collocated telecommunications carriers by constructing
a dedicated cable support structure between the two contiguous cages. BHN shall
deploy such electrical or optical cross-connections directly between its own facilities
and the facilities of another collocated telecommunications carrier without being
routed through AT&T’s equipment. BHN shall not provision CCXC on any AT&T
distribution frame, POT (Point of Termination) Bay, DSX (Digital System Cross-
Connect) or LGX (Light Guide Cross-Connect). BHN is responsible for ensuring the
integrity of the signal.
3.5.2 To place an order for CCXCs, BHN must submit an application to AT&T. If no
modification to the Collocation Space is requested other than the placement of
CCXCs, only the CCXC Application Fee, as defined in Exhibit B, will apply. If other
modifications, in addition to the placement of CCXCs, are requested, either an Initial
Application or Subsequent Application Fee will apply, pursuant to Section 6.3.1 of this
Attachment. AT&T will bill this nonrecurring fee on the date that it provides an
Application Response to BHN.
4. Occupancy
4.1 Occupancy. AT&T will notify BHN in writing when the Collocation Space is ready
for occupancy (Space Ready Date). BHN will schedule and complete an acceptance
walkthrough of the Collocation Space with AT&T within fifteen (15) calendar days of
the Space Ready Date. AT&T will correct any deviations in BHN’s original or jointly
amended application requirements within seven (7) calendar days after the
