I'm hesitating to introduce an other name which means the same (1. as I wrote I try to limit new names; 2. use of new name would be incompatible or inconsistent with that solution for circuit monitoring).  On the other hand, "connectedTo" is already used by NSI so I understand that some continuation is welcome. If you think that it's really important to keep "connectedTo" then I'm fine.

We're already saying that an nml-nsi:STP is equivalent to an nml:Port with some added behavior. I don't really see any reason why connectedTo would not work in this case.

There's a FOAF namespace in RDF which describes similar things about a person. However, it's not really a standard I think.
There's also the vCard standard, for which there is (I think) both an RDF and XML notation.
