EXHIBIT "I"
ACCEPTANCE TESTING PROCEDURES AND STANDARDS
After Grantor has completed end-to-end connectivity on the fibers,
bi-directional span testing with an Optical Time Domain Reflectometer ("OTDR")
will be done. Once the pigtails have been spliced, loss measurements will be
recorded using an industry-accepted laser source and a power meter. OTDR traces
will be taken and splice loss measurements will be recorded. Grantor will store
OTDR traces on data sheets. Copies of all data sheets will be available to
Grantee.
The power loss measurements shall be made at 1550 nm, and performed
bi-directionally.
OTDR traces shall be taken in both directions at 1550 nm.
Guaranteed span loss shall include loss from fiber attenuation, splices and
connectors coupling cable to the Grantor-designated optical termination panel.
The loss shall not include the fiber/cable and connectors from the
Grantor-designated optical termination panel to Grantee's colocation space.
Average loss per span shall be calculated on a fiber length basis only. The
average loss per span shall not exceed 0.25 dB/km.
The fibers shall be terminated to the Grantor-designated optical termination
panel with SC-PC connectors, unless another type of connector is specified.
Pigtails and jumpers shall be manufactured with standard single mode fiber or
equivalent.
Testing for Segments for which the Segment End Point is other than a Grantor
point of presence shall be performed in a coordinated fashion, so that Grantee
shall connect and test the fiber owned by it in conjunction with Grantor's
testing of the Grantee Fibers. In the event that the entire tested portion does
not satisfy the testing criteria set forth herein, Grantee and Grantor shall
work together in good faith to pinpoint the cause of the problem and each party
shall be responsible for the timely performance of such repairs on the fibers
owned by it (so that Grantor shall only be responsible for repairs needed to
bring the Grantee Fibers into compliance with this Exhibit). Grantor may (in the
event of a dispute respecting testing and acceptance of the Grantee Fibers
within any such Segment) arrange to have the Grantee Fibers tested only to the
Segment End Point and, if such Grantee Fibers meet the testing criteria set
forth herein, Grantee shall be obligated to accept and pay for such Grantee
Fibers (notwithstanding the fact that the fibers connected to Grantor's point of
presence may not be functioning properly).
