Interrogatories

 

  1. Provide the service costs used to support the company's proposed rates for its introduction of the new 50 Mbps (download) and 1.5Mbps (upload) service, along with the associated cost methodology and assumptions.

  2. Describe how Cogeco's retail VOIP [digital voice] services are provisioned on Cogeco's network, explaining whether the VOIP traffic runs on the network that Cogeco uses to provide its Internet services, or whether it is carried over a separate managed network.   If Cogeco's retail VOIP [digital voice] service runs on the network Cogeco uses to provide its Internet services, explain whether Cogeco includes VOIP service usage by its retail end-users when calculating its retail excessive usage billing charges? If not, explain why.
