Entrance Facilities. ComSouth may elect to place ComSouth-owned or ComSouth leased fiber entrance facilities into its Collocation Space. BellSouth will designate the point of interconnection in close proximity to the BellSouth Premises housing the Collocation Space, such as at an entrance manhole or a cable vault for Central Offices, which is physically accessible by both Parties. For Central Offices, ComSouth will provide and place fiber cable in the entrance manhole of sufficient length to be pulled through conduit and into the splice location. ComSouth will provide and install a sufficient length of fire retardant riser cable, to which BellSouth will splice the entrance cable. The fire retardant riser cable will extend from the splice location to ComSouth’s equipment in ComSouth’s Collocation Space. In the event ComSouth utilizes a non-metallic, riser-type entrance facility, a splice will not be required. For Remote Terminals ComSouth will provide and place copper cable through conduit from the Remote Site Collocation Space to the feeder distribution interface. Such copper cable must be of sufficient length to reach the splice location for splicing by BellSouth. ComSouth must contact BellSouth for authorization and instruction prior to placing any entrance facility cable in an entrance manhole or cable vault. ComSouth is responsible for the maintenance of the entrance facilities. Nonrecurring charges for cable installation will be assessed on a per cable basis as set forth in Exhibit B upon receipt of ComSouth’s BFFO. Recurring charges for the cable support structure will be billed at the rates set forth in Exhibit B.
