Unbundled Network Element (UNE) Non-Recurring Cost Study
conjunction with any outside plant work at the scheduled appointment time. There
is
an
“Additional Cost” that applies for each delay of 15 minutes caused by the CLEC, e.g., if
the start of the conversion is delayed beyond the end of the scheduled time or if the
CLEC delays the conversion once it is undexway.
Process
3
-identifies the costs of the field technician to coordinate and cut the ordered
UNEs
in conjunction with the central office and FAC personnel at the scheduled
appointment time. There
is
an “Additional Cost” that applies for each delay of 15
minutes caused by the CLEC.
Hot Cut Coordinated Conversion
-
This
service is the Coordinated Conversion mentioned
above with the added feature that the CLEC, the GTE coordinator and the GTE technicians
remain
on
a conference call for the duration of the service order completion process. Each
step of the process
is
completed sequentially following authorization from the CLEC.
Because there is
no
way for GTE to estimate
or
control the amount of time required for a Hot
Cut Coordinated Conversion, the cost developed
is
for a conversion lasting up to one hour.
Additional costs will be incurred for each quarter hour thereafter at GTE’s Loaded Labor
Rates for the GTE employees involved.
Exuedite
-
An Expedite refers to
a
request by
a
CLEC to advance the completion of the
service order earlier than the next standard Due Date that
is
normally available. Instead
of
relying
on
the automated system for work schedule,
an
Expedite requires a manual
appointment setting process in which NOMC personnel must contact the Division Resource
Management group to determine if the earlier completion interval is feasible.
In
addition to
the costs shown in
this
study, overtime charges may apply if the work is done outside of
normal installation work time periods
as
authorized by the CLEC.

Description
of
the UNEs
Following is a description of each
UNE
included in
this
NRC study.
Unbundled
Loops
Unbundled loops extend from a GTE central office up to the demarcation point at an end user’s
premises.
2-wire
Analog
Loop
is a voice frequency transmission facility suitable for the transport of analog
voice signals between approximately
300
Hz to
3000
Hz, with line loss levels not to exceed 8.5
dB.
A 2-wire Analog Loop may include load coils and bridged tap,
as
well as carrier derived
facility components such
as
pair gain applications and loop concentrators/multiplexers. The
2-
wire Analog Loop is an Exchange
