5 A reporting carrier should own the “last mile” of wire, cable, or optical fiber that connects to the end-user
premises (or have obtained radio spectrum for the equivalent fixed wireless facility) if it reports providing the local
telephone line over its own facilities. In general, local exchange and exchange access lines provisioned over
facilities (other than dark fiber) and services obtained from another carrier are not the reporting carrier’s “own
facilities” for purposes of FCC Form 477, irrespective of whether those facilities or services are obtained under
interconnection arrangements, under tariff, or by other means. In particular, owning the switch that provides
dial tone (and other services) over a UNE loop leased from another carrier does not qualify a line as being
provisioned over the reporting carrier’s own facilities.
What this means is Bell owns all rights and that cable company's need to start stepping up and paying contractors more for homerun's and provide them with proper equipment to complete a telephone install.Going to the Ned box of Bell is incorrect, companies need to provide you the installer with their own.
