Hi Gary,
Just getting back into the office from a business trip and vacation. I 
appreciate your reply and get a good sense you know what I'm up against. This 
is a very grey area and without a confirmed RBOC customer such as Verizon , 
AT&T, etc. it is hard to make the next move without some serious reservations. 
Please contact me directly with the contact information for the person you 
referenced in your email. 
So I have to ask, in your scenario you described below, what did you end up 
doing? NEBS level 1, NEBS level 3, neither? The device I'm describing is for 
the residence but could have connections that go into the CO or Co-locator 
space.
Thanks,
Alex

once of one the Verizon guys who I trust and the answer was yes, and we were 
discussing cable modems at the time. I'm still only 80% certain he meant what 
he said. This was just a casual conversation.    If one end of the cable modem 
goes into a CO or a co-locator's space I think you're out of luck and NEBS 
applies, either level 1 or 3 as defined by the various RBOC's, for homes - 
which I think have to be CPE locations then its the 80% answer I got.    
Contact me privately and I will give you a name of someone who I think we have 
a good answer for you. He's well known buy most folks but out of respect to his 
time I don't want to blast it for everyone's contact fill addition.    Gary

Subject: NEBs Requirements for Cable Modems


Hi Group,

Our company wants to sell our Cable Modem to some of the major US carriers. Is 
anyone familiar with compliance requirements needed to meet their requirements? 
I'm aware they all have specific requirements so I would use Verizon and AT&T 
as a general reference.  These modems are located in a residential environment 
so I'm curious if they would have to meet any of the NEBS or GR ??? 
requirements? Any thing else to be aware of in the US other than FCC and UL 
Safety as applicable?

All input is appreciated,

Alex
