§ 69.121   Connection charges for expanded interconnection.

   (a) Appropriate connection charge subelements shall be established for the
   use  of equipment and facilities that are associated with offerings of
   expanded interconnection for special access and switched transport services,
   as defined in part 64, subpart N of this chapter. To the extent that the
   same equipment and facilities are used to provide expanded interconnection
   for both special access and switched transport, the same connection charge
   subelements shall be used.

   (1) A cross-connect subelement shall be established for charges associated
   with  the cross-connect cable and associated facilities connecting the
   equipment owned by or dedicated to the use of the interconnector with the
   telephone company's equipment and facilities used to provide interstate
   special  or  switched  access  services. Charges for the cross-connect
   subelement shall not be deaveraged within a study area that is used for
   purposes of jurisdictional separations.

   (2) Charges for subelements associated with physical collocation or virtual
   collocation, other than the subelement described in paragraph (a)(1) of this
   section and subelements recovering the cost of the virtual collocation
   equipment described in § 64.1401(e)(1) of this chapter, may reasonably differ
   in different central offices, notwithstanding § 69.3(e)(7).

   (b) Connection charge subelements shall be computed based upon the costs
   associated with the equipment and facilities that are included in such
   subelements, including no more than a just and reasonable portion of the
   telephone company's overhead costs.

   (c) Connection charge subelements shall be assessed upon all interconnectors
   that use the equipment or facilities that are included in such subelements.
