Installation Info

PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE PAGE CAREFULLY! ANTICIPATE 4 TO 8 WEEKS FOR NEW INSTALLATION REQUESTS TO BE COMPLETED. WORK WITH YOUR CONTRACTORS TO PLAN ACCORDINGLY AND NOTIFY ATLAS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO PREVENT INSTALL DELAYS.

Home Installation Process:

1. Pre-installation Check - Please complete our pre-installation check order form online [click here] or call our main office 206-395-7222 to have your home reviewed for installation. Pre-installation check is *required* to be completed before we can place your order for service.
   • New Homes: The Pre-Install Check costs $250.00 for new homes and includes the delivery of the exterior communications panel (EMCE) that is required for service. Atlas will visually inspect conduit at the communication vault at the street, and at the end point of the EMCE to insure it has been properly connected by code and our specifications. Roughly 30% of homes we install have improperly installed, or not installed, conduits resulting in costly work and digging to resolve the problems. Atlas will work with your contractor during your homes construction to ensure the EMCE communications panel and conduits are installed correctly.Schedule your Pre-Installation check as early as possible to avoid costly changes.
   • Existing Homes Never Serviced Before: The Pre-Install Check costs $100.00 for existing homes that do not have fiber optic cable installed but do have a communications panel installed already. Before paying your $995.00 installation fee, Atlas Networks requires a pre-installation check to ensure the conduit and communications panels are properly installed. This prevents frustrating delays in providing service as owners can address conduit or other issues before installation.
   • Existing Homes with Prior Service: There is a reduced fee for existing homes that have an existing fiber optic cable and communications panel installed. If you are unsure, please contact our office at 206-395-7222.
2. Placing Your Order - There are two methods to place your order.
   • For owners that are unsure or need assistance placing an order, please submit a request for order by [clicking here] or call our office at 206-395-7222.
3. Paying for Your Order - Atlas requires that new orders be paid in full before we will begin the installation process. We strongly encourage new homes to signup early in the process as you can roll the $995 setup fee in to your construction loan.
4. Scheduling Your Installation - Once your order is paid, our operations manager will contact you to schedule your home. Please remember, due to the nature of the Suncadia network and variations in the number of orders, installations can take 4 to 8 weeks to complete from the time your order is paid. Each home can be different from the previous and installations can take as short as 1 day or as long as a week to complete, in some rare cases they can take even longer. Atlas will work closely with you to keep you apprised as we step through the installation process for your home.

What is included in an installation and how much does it cost?

Standard Home Installation Includes:

• The fiber optic cabling that runs from our data center (NOC) in Suncadia to the your home. We include up to 400 feet of fiber between the street vault and your home. Runs over 400 feet incur a surcharge of $0.50 per foot above 400 feet.
• A Fiber Optic Network Termination device (ONT)* that terminates the fiber optic connection from the data center and converts the signal into telephone, internet and television signals.
• A battery backup (UPS)* that powers the ONT in case of a power outage. The UPS only supports telephone function.
• Cabling to inside equipment provided by contractor or third party licensed/certified electrical contractor.
• Labor to fusion splice the fiber optic cabling, pull the fiber optic cabling to your home, and installation and configuration of the equipment.
• New Home Installations: $995.00 for standard new home installations. Other charges may be applicable depending on the various situations.
• Previously Serviced Home Installations: $695.00 for standard previously serviced home installations that have approved and functional black fiber optic cable installed already. Other charges may be applicable depending on the various situations.

What are Homeowners responsible for?

• Installation of the EMCE cabinet on the outside of the home or in the unlocked garbage room accessible to Atlas 24/7 (provided by Atlas in the Pre-Installation Check) with 120V power and grounding inside the cabinet (installed by owners contractor). The outlet must be installed in the lower very bottom corner of the panel to allow room for our equipment.
• Pest abatement must be performed on the EMCE panel to ensure rodents do not enter the panel. Rodents cause unsafe work environments due to droppings and they will also damage equipment, cabling and fiber. Homeowners are responsible for ensuring their EMCE panels remain rodent free and are responsible for any damaged caused to Atlas equipment or fiber as a result of rodents in the EMCE.
• Internet Router/Firewall - while not required, it is highly advised that owners utilize a internet router/firewall. One can be purchased or rented from Atlas or you can provide your own. If you provide your own Atlas will not be responsible for programming or maintenance after the initial installation and will not provide support for customer owned routers. You may also be subject to service charges for customer owned routers if we perform on-site service and the reported problem resides with your router.
• All inside wiring. Inside wiring must be CAT5E or better (CAT6 recommended) to all Internet and TV locations. Patch panels/appropriate demarcation points need to be installed in the EMCE and internal communications panels.
• Inside communications panel where all your wiring terminates. This panel must have 120V power located inside, and be properly grounded.
• Conduit between the EMCE cabinet and inside communications panel with a minimum (3) CAT5E or better cables, including a pull string for future cabling or upgrade needs, pulled and terminated into patch panel or modular jacks. Atlas charges $125 per hour plus materials to install additional cables (if possible). If your home lacks the (3) required cables, you may be required to lease additional equipment for your inside communications panel.
• Conduit connected to the Suncadia communications conduit at the property line extended to your EMCE panel. This conduit must have a functional pull line installed. Additional installation fees may be incurred if pull line is not provided and/or not functional at a rate of $75 per hr. The conduit should stub up inside the EMCE panel. Only 45 degree bends and long 90 degree sweeps may be used. If your contractor has questions, have them call us to schedule a reduced fee site-visit to discuss. Improperly installed conduits and/or EMCE cabinets will be rejected for service and asked to be installed properly before service can be obtained.
• It is the Homeowner's responsibility to ensure their contractor(s) complete the communications panel install properly. Atlas will decline to complete the install until the communications panels and conduit systems are brought up to required specifications.

Please note that the installation costs do not vary based on product type requested. The same equipment is required even if you only order one service. Additional installation costs required for TV Set Top Boxes.

Contractor Job Shacks

Contractors can request a temporary connection for their job shack for internet and/or telephone. The fiber cabling installation is generally an above ground temporary connection.

• Installation cost for temporary connection that requires an above ground cable to be run is $300.00 for most installations.This includes up to 400' of fiber optic cabling from the nearest vault to the job shack. Cabling runs beyond 400' are billed at $0.50 per foot. This is a non-refundable fee and is not applied towards the installation cost of the home. Contractors are responsible for ensuring the cable and equipment is kept safe from damage. If the cable is damaged it will require a $250 repair/reconnect fee to be paid.
• Contractors are responsible for the return of the temporary equipment provided by Atlas Networks. If the equipment is not returned within 5 business days of termination of service or if the equipment is damaged in any way, a $500 equipment replacement fee will be charged to the contractor.
• Internet and telephone costs are the same for temporary contractor service as they are for the home.

Service Level Agreement

This Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) supplements the Terms and Conditions for Delivery of Service and your Order Form, which are incorporated herein by this reference. This SLA defines the Atlas Networks Corporation (“Atlas Networks”) service performance standards. This SLA will become effective on the first day following installation of Atlas Networks’ service.

This SLA applies to Internet, VoIP “Voice Services”, IP Cameras, and Enterprise (Business) Wireless services delivered over Atlas Networks’ Shared Network Backbone which is exclusively owned and operated by Atlas Networks and does not cover any local loop or service provided via that local loop, to your premise where the local loop is owned and operated by a third party. In the event where services are delivered to the your premises via a single local loop owned and operated by a third party provider Atlas Networks will extend the same SLA terms provided by that specific third party provider to you. If your local loop consists of multiple, redundant local loops to your premise which are owned and operated by a third party Atlas Networks’ SLA outlined below will apply.

1. TECHNICAL SUPPORT. For Commercial Customers, Atlas Networks supports and monitors its service up to the demarcation point where the border router connects to your computer “(DEMARC”), via ICMP echo-reply packets, every 60 seconds, 24 hours per day. The Atlas Networks Network Operations Center (“NOC”) is available 24 hours per day for support. For Residential Customers, you must open a support ticket with the NOC by sending an email to support@atlasonnet.com to report an outage. Once a customer ticket is opened with the NOC, either though monitoring alarm or you report trouble to NOC staff, any outage SLA credits will begin to accrue.
2. PERFORMANCE STANDARDS. If Atlas Networks’ network is not performing as described herein, you are entitled to a service credit to a maximum of the amount billed by Atlas Networks on the given month, excluding third party fees charged to Atlas Networks for transmitting your data through networks controlled by third-parties (“Third Party Networks”).
3. LATENCY, PACKET-LOSS, JITTER AND NETWORK AVAILABILITY. Network Latency: Atlas Networks network delivers no more than 30ms of intra-state latency within the shared network backbone 1 between the aggregation router to which the your local-loop 2 is connected and Atlas Networks’ network transmits your data though Third Party Networks. Packet loss: Atlas Networks’ standard is no more than 0.5% packet loss 3 across the shared network backbone, from the aggregation router to which the your local-loop is connected and Atlas Networks’ network transmits your data though Third Party Networks. Packet loss in excess of 0.5% constitutes a service outage. Jitter: The Atlas Networks network will provide jitter of less than 5 ms between any two nodes on the network backbone; jitter in excess of this 5 ms threshold constitutes a service outage.

Network availability for Residential, Office Class Internet, FlexGig Internet, VoIP Services, IP Camera Services, and Wireless Access Services: Atlas Networks’ shared network backbone availability in any given month is 99.99% for these products; our ‘Dedicated’ services SLA is definedNetwork availability for Dedicated Class Internet: Atlas Networks’ shared network backbone availability in any given month is 99.999% for these products.

4. SOLE REMEDY FOR LOSS OF SERVICE. Your exclusive remedy for loss of service from Atlas Networks is limited to reinstatement of service and a credit for the period of lost connectivity. Credits will be paid for Atlas Networks network outages resulting in a continuous loss of connectivity as set out below:

Network service outage exceeding 4 hours: 5% of monthly-billed IP services.

Network service outage exceeding 6 hours: 10% of monthly-billed IP services.

Network service outage exceeding 8 hours: 15% of monthly-billed IP services.

For every additional 4-hour incremental network outage, you shall be entitled to receive an additional 5% of monthly-billed base service credit up to the monthly 100% maximum credit limit. The period of lost service shall be determined by records kept by Atlas Networks at its NOC and based on ICMP ping packets to the customer DEMARC.

Dedicated (Ultra)-Class Products with a 99.999% uptime guarantee shall receive, in addition to the prorated credit, a $50.00 per incident service credit. Cumulative credits shall not exceed the total billed services for the month.

5. CHRONIC OUTAGE. Customer shall have the right to terminate the Agreement specifically in the event of and after any Chronic Service Quality Problem (as hereinafter defined) upon thirty (30) days written notice to Atlas Networks. As used herein, the term “Chronic Service Quality Problem” shall mean: (i) any one Interruption (as defined in the SLA) lasting more than seven (7) days at a particular Service Location or (ii) five (5) or more Interruptions (as defined in the SLA) at a particular Service Location, with each Interruption lasting at least thirty continuous minutes, in any thirty day period. For the purpose of applying this provision, Customer must document in writing (through the opening of a trouble ticket) the Interruption with Atlas Networks promptly. In the event of a termination for a Chronic Service Quality Problem, Customer only shall be responsible for the payment of charges for the Service incurred prior to the termination date.
6. OTHER CREDITS. SLA credit is capped at 20% of the base service amount for issues relating to port or router failures on Atlas Networks owned equipment which result in the failure of your local-loop. This does not apply if you have multiple local-loops or Shadow Circuits, nor does it apply to any failures inside the shared network backbone. SLA credit is capped at 20% of the monthly fee.
7. SLA CREDIT EXCLUSIONS. SLA credits do not apply to third party fees charged to Atlas Networks for transmitting your data through local-loop connections provided by Third Party Networks.
8. LEASED & MANAGED ROUTERS AND/OR FIREWALLS. Atlas Networks provides both leased and managed firewalls and routers to customers for a monthly rental fee. Both devices are supported by our NOC staff.
   1. Support for Leased Routers. Commonly known as SOHO Routers (small office home office), Atlas will provide the following support services for Leased Routers. As these devices are not remotely accessible by our support staff, customers must authorize and assist in granting access to the devices for remote support. Support is limited to the following: assistance in establishing a connection to our network, setting up wireless access if supported by the device, assisting with basic firewall and port forward rules, resetting the device to factory defaults, static IP configuration on the WAN port, and static IP configuration for LAN ports (we do not provide support for setting static IP’s on your network devices/computers). Atlas only provides remote support for these devices which often requires you to provide access to the device remotely. We are not responsible for your network security and you use these devices at your sole risk.
   2. Support for Managed Routers and Firewalls. Atlas can offer enhanced router and firewall products that leverage a more powerful and feature rich platform and hardware that is provided as a managed service. Support is limited to the following: initial on-site setup and configuration on your network, wireless access and security if supported by the device, advanced firewall and port forward rules, VPN access, pseudowire emulation between two Atlas endpoints, static IP configuration on the WAN port, and static IP configuration for LAN ports (we do not provide support for setting static IP’s on your network devices/computers). Atlas only provides remote support for these devices. We are not responsible for your network security and you use the device and service at your sole risk.
9. HARDWARE REPLACEMENT & MONITORING. All IP Cameras, Managed Enterprise Wireless Access Points, Managed Routers, and Managed Switches are monitored via ICMP echo-reply packets, every 60 seconds, 24 hours per day. Upon failure, our monitoring system will automatically open a trouble ticket with our NOC within 60 minutes of failure. Atlas guarantees a 1 business day replacement of defective managed hardware. Your exclusive remedy for loss of service from Atlas Networks is limited to reinstatement of service and a credit for the period of lost service. Credits will be paid for Atlas Networks network outages resulting in a continuous loss of connectivity as set out below:

Hardware service outage exceeding 1 business day: 25% of monthly billed services for affected device

Hardware service outage exceeding 2 business days: 50% of monthly billed services for affected device

Hardware service outage exceeding 3 business days: 100% of monthly billed services for affected device

The period of lost service shall be determined by records kept by Atlas Networks at its NOC and based on ICMP ping packets to the device. For the purposes of this SLA, a business day constitutes normal business hours of Atlas Networks and excludes weekends and holidays. A hardware failure registered by the NOC after 5PM on a weekday would be calculated from 8AM the next business day.

10. SPECIFIC SERVICES.
    1. IP Camera Recordings. All IP Camera recordings are provided “as-is” and Atlas does not warranty the clarity or availability of the images. Atlas will make best efforts to provide recordings during the retention period listed on your sales order. Atlas is not responsible for lost, unusable, blurry, or any recording losses resulting from vandalism of the cameras, network and/or network hardware failure, power failure, Network Video Recorder (NVR) failures, or camera hardware failure. Atlas offers an optional high-availability solution for an additional cost that creates near-real time backup of the recordings to prevent loss due to failures of digital storage servers (NVR’s).
    2. Leased & Managed Wireless Access Points. Due to the complex nature of wireless access services, interference, load, radio frequency congestion, and other variables, Atlas only guarantees leased and wireless access point hardware per Section 9 above. The availability of the service is not guaranteed and is provided as a best attempt.

1 The shared network backbone consists of the routers and circuits which are under exclusive control of Atlas Networks but not dedicated for the use of a specific customer.

2 Your local-loop consists of circuits, microwave, fiber and/or leased lines that are exclusively used by you for your connection to the shared network backbone.

3 Packet-loss is measured end-to-end using ICMP-echo-reply packets; failure of these test packets to return indicates packet loss. Failure of Atlas Networks owned routers to respond to ICMP-echo-reply packets does not indicate Packet-loss as the routers rate-limit ICMP. Only end-to-end tests are accepted for SLA credits.
