Similarly, any Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment hereafter installed by Tenant shall be located and designed so as not to interfere with signals to and from such other equipment belonging to Landlord or to third parties, that may have previously been installed. The party responsible for the communications equipment which interferes with equipment previously installed by others shall be required, at its or their expense, to take all measures necessary to eliminate the source of interference caused by such party’s equipment.
