Common use of SUBLOOPS Clause in Contracts

SUBLOOPS. SPRINT is responsible for all engineering requirements when provisioning service to an end user via Subloop UNEs. VERIZON does not guarantee, nor is it responsible for, the end-to-end performance of the entire loop when VERIZON provides only a portion of the loop. Furthermore, VERIZON is responsible for maintenance on only the portion of the loop element that VERIZON provides. VERIZON will provide all Subloop UNEs to SPRINT in the same manner as VERIZON provides such elements to itself per existing VERIZON interface specifications, maintenance and administrative policies.
