The point at which operational control changes (for example, where the phone company's responsibility ends and the building owner's begins).
The point along a line of network service where the equipment owned by one organization (such as MultiMeg) interfaces with equipment owned by another organization (such as your own). Back
The demarcation point: between the wiring that comes in from your local telephone cable company and the wiring you install to hook up your telephone system--your customer provided equipment. Little metal clips called "bridging clips" connect you to the telephone trunk company. Lifting these clips cuts your equipment from the phone company's trunk.
The end of telco responsibility. The demarcation point is where an imaginary line is drawn; on one end of that line, telco must fix any problems. On the other end of the line, the customer is responsible for fixing any problems. This is usually placed at the network interface, and any inside wiring and customer premise equipment are the customer's responsibility.If telco can test clean to the NI and sees errors from the site, they will often refuse to dispatch out to test physically onsite, or delay the dispatch as it will be considered a "demand" dispatch to prove through the demarc. Note that just because they test clean to the NI does not mean it's not defective; it just means that there is not likely to be a physical circuit issue leading to the NI.
The dividing line between a service provider’s area of responsibility and the end-customer’s area of responsibility. Traditionally, this dividing line is in a customer’s phone closet where a service provider’s circuit enters their premise. Reignmaker is the first communications company to eradicate the demarcation point with our End-to-End service delivery, which means we support our service everywhere it exists.
The location where a telecommunications provider's network ends and a private network begins
Also called a point of demarcation (abbreviated POD), the physical point at which the public network of a telecommunications company (i.e., a phone or cable company) ends and the private network of a customer begins.
A point where the operational control or ownership changes. This point is usually where the access provider's facilities stop and the customer-owned structured cabling begins.
A demarc identifies the point where communications facilities owned by one organization interfere with that of another organization. This is the interface between customer premises equipment and network service provider.
The point at the customer premises where the line from the telephone company meets the premises wiring.
In telephone networks, the demarcation point is the point at which the telephone company's local loop network ends and connects with the telephone system or wiring at the customer's premises. A demarcation point is also referred to as the demarc, DMARC, MPOE, or minimum point of entry.
