The DB loss calculations for the copper cable sections are: ANMW 100 Before : .218 of 24 gauge cable @ 28 KHz = .360 dB Loss After: .227 of 22 gauge cable & .107 of 24 gauge cable @ 28 KHz = .420 dB Loss Change of + 0.06 dB loss. The DB loss calculations for the copper cable sections are: ANMW 200 Before : .060 of 24 gauge cable @ 28 KHz = .100 dB Loss After: .087 of 24 gauge cable @ 28 KHz = .150 dB Loss Change of + 0.05 dB loss. The DB loss calculations for the copper cable sections are: ANAW 25 Before : .029 of 24 gauge cable & .168 of 22 gauge cable @ 28 KHz = .230 dB Loss After: .094 of 24 gauge cable & .227 of22 gauge cable @ 28 KHz = .400 dB Loss Change of + 0.17 dB loss. The DB loss calculations for the copper cable sections are: BHBG 25 Before : .327 of 19 gauge cable & .029 of 24 gauge cable @ 28 KHz = .240 dB Loss After: .424 of 22 gauge cable & .032 of 24 gauge cable @ 28 KHz = .510 dB Loss Change of + 0.27 dB loss.

The first closure is in the north side of E Lake Hazel 320' west of S Five Mile Rd. The second is on the west side of S Five Mile Rd about 480' north of W Lake Hazel Rd. The cables contain F1 and F2 facilities. A 3 ' section of the existing cables will be removed. There are CLECS on the sections to be removed. This job is being done at the developers request as the existing closure is in conflict with property improvements. The first section of 300 pair removed cable has a Before: 226' of 22 ga = .240dB loss @ 28 KHz. After: 223' of 22 ga and 20' of 22 ga= .290dB loss @ 28 KHz. Difference is +0.050dB. The second section of removed 300 pair cable has a Before: 906' of 22 ga = .96dB loss @ 28 KHz. After: 603' of 22ga and 50' of 22 ga= 1.01dB loss @ 28 KHz. Difference is +0.050dB. The third section is of a 25 pair cable and the removed cable has a Before: 1398' of 19 ga = .830dB loss @ 28 KHz. After: 1395' of 19 ga and 50' of 19ga= .860 dB loss @ 28 KHz. Difference is +0.030dB. The fouth section of removed cable is a 100 pair cable has a before: 560' of 22 ga = .60dB loss @ 28 KHz. After: 557' of 22ga and 50' of 22 ga= .65dB loss @ 28 KHz. Difference is +0.050dB. The fifth section of removed cable is a 100 pair cable has a before: 464' of 22 ga = .50dB loss @ 28 KHz. After: 461' of 22ga and 50' of 22 ga= .55dB loss @ 28 KHz. Difference is +0.050dB.
