Common use of Adherence to National Industry Standards Clause in Contracts

Adherence to National Industry Standards. 44.6.1. In providing advanced service loop technology, Sprint shall allow CLEC to deploy underlying technology that does not significantly interfere with other advanced services and analog circuit-switched voice band transmissions. 44.6.2. Until long term industry standards and practices can be established, a particular technology shall be presumed acceptable for deployment under certain circumstances. Deployment that is consistent with at least one of the following circumstances presumes that such loop technology will not significantly degrade the performance of other advanced services or impair traditional analog circuit-switched voice band services: 44.6.2.1. Complies with existing industry standards, including an industry-standard PSD mask, as well as modulation schemes and electrical characteristics; 44.6.2.2. Is approved by an industry standards body, the FCC, or any state commission or; 44.6.2.3. Has been successfully deployed by any CLEC without significantly degrading the performance of other services. 44.6.2.4. Where CLEC seeks to establish that deployment of a technology falls within the presumption of acceptability under paragraph 44.6.2.3, the burden is on CLEC to demonstrate to the Commission that its proposed deployment meets the threshold for a presumption of acceptability and will not, in fact, significantly degrade the performance of other advanced services or traditional voice band services. 44.6.3. If a deployed technology significantly degrades other advanced services, the affected Party will notify the interfering party and give them a reasonable opportunity to correct the problem. The interfering Party will immediately stop any new deployment until the problem is resolved to mitigate disruption of other carrier services. If the affected parties are unable to resolve the problem, they will present factual evidence to the Commission for review and determination. If the Commission determines that the deployed technology is the cause of the interference, the deploying party will remedy the problem by reducing the number of existing customers utilizing the technology or by migrating them to another technology that does not disturb. 44.6.4. When the only degraded service itself is a known disturber and the newly deployed technology is presumed acceptable pursuant to Section 44.6.2, the degraded service shall not prevail against the newly deployed technology. 44.6.5. If Sprint denies a request by CLEC to deploy a technology, it will provide detailed, specific information providing the reasons for the rejection. 44.6.6. Parties agree to abide by national standards as developed by ANSI, i.e., Committee T1E1.4 group defining standards for loop technology. At the time the deployed technology is standardized by ANSI or the recognized standards body, the CLEC will upgrade its equipment to the adopted standard within sixty (60) Days of the standard being adopted. 44.6.7. CLEC shall meet the power spectral density requirement given in the respective technical references listed below:

Information to be Provided for Deployment of Advanced Services 45.9.1. Upon request, Embarq shall provide to CLEC: (a) information with respect to the spectrum management procedures and policies that Embarq uses in determining which services can be deployed; (b) information with respect to the rejection of CLEC’s provision of advanced services, together with the specific reason for the rejection; and (c) information with respect to the number of loops using advanced services technology within the binder and type of technology deployed on those loops. 45.9.2. In connection with the provision of advanced services, CLEC shall provide to Embarq the following information on the type of technology that CLEC seeks to deploy where CLEC asserts that the technology it seeks to deploy fits within a generic Power Spectral Density (PSD) mask: (a) information in writing (via the service order) regarding the Spectrum Management Class (SMC), as defined in the T1E1.4/2000-002R2 Draft, of the desired loop so that the loop and/or binder group may be engineered to meet the appropriate spectrum compatibility requirements; (b) the SMC (i.e., PSD mask) of the service it seeks to deploy, at the time of ordering and if CLEC requires a change in the SMC of a particular loop, CLEC shall notify Embarq in writing of the requested change in SMC (via a service order); (c) to the extent not previously provided CLEC must disclose to Embarq every SMC that the CLEC has implemented on Embarq’s facilities to permit effective Spectrum Management.

Adherence to National Industry Standards. 44.6.1. 46.7.1 In providing advanced service loop technology, Sprint shall allow CLEC to deploy underlying technology that does not significantly interfere with other advanced services and analog circuit-switched voice band transmissions. 44.6.2. 46.7.2 Until long term industry standards and practices can be established, a particular technology shall be presumed acceptable for deployment under certain circumstances. Deployment that is consistent with at least one of the following circumstances presumes that such loop technology will not significantly degrade the performance of other advanced services or impair traditional analog circuit-switched voice band services: 44.6.2.1. 46.7.2.1 Complies with existing industry standards, including an industry-standard PSD mask, as well as modulation schemes and electrical characteristics;schemes 44.6.2.2. 46.7.2.2 Is approved by an industry standards body, the FCC, or any state commission or; 44.6.2.3. 46.7.2.3 Has been successfully deployed by any CLEC carrier without significantly degrading the performance of other services. 44.6.2.4. Where ; provided however, where CLEC seeks to establish that deployment of a technology falls within the presumption of acceptability under this paragraph 44.6.2.346.7.2.3, the burden is on CLEC to demonstrate to the Commission state commission that its proposed deployment meets the threshold for a presumption of acceptability and will not, in fact, significantly degrade the performance of other advanced services or traditional voice band services. 44.6.3. 46.7.3 If a deployed technology significantly degrades other advanced services, the affected Party will notify the interfering party and give them a reasonable opportunity to correct the problem. The interfering Party will immediately stop any new deployment until the problem is resolved to mitigate disruption of other carrier services. If the affected parties are unable to resolve the problem, they will present factual evidence to the State Commission for review and determination. If the Commission determines that the deployed technology is the cause of the interference, the deploying party will remedy the problem by reducing the number of existing customers utilizing the technology or by migrating them to another technology that does not disturb. 44.6.4. 46.7.4 When the only degraded service itself is a known disturber and the newly deployed technology is presumed acceptable pursuant to Section 44.6.2§ 46.7.2, the degraded service shall not prevail against the newly deployed technology. 44.6.5. 46.7.5 If Sprint denies a request by CLEC to deploy a technology, it will provide detailed, specific information providing the reasons for the rejection. 44.6.6. 46.7.6 Parties agree to abide by national standards as developed by ANSI, i.e., Committee T1E1.4 group defining standards for loop technology. At the time the deployed technology is standardized by ANSI or the recognized standards body, the CLEC will upgrade its equipment to the adopted standard within sixty (60) Days 60 days of the standard being adopted. 44.6.7. CLEC shall meet the power spectral density requirement given in the respective technical references listed below:
