(Demarcation Point) The point, jack or cross connect panel, at which ownership or responsibility for operating and maintaining facilities passes from one party to another.
Where the local phone company hands off a telephone circuit, separating the customer owned equipment from the telephone company equipment - where responsibility for the circuit's performance separates.
Demarcation (also referred as Dmark or deāmark) - The point between the wiring that comes in from the local telephone company and the wiring you install to connect your equipment or system to the CPE.
Demarcation Point, the point at which the subscriber wiring connects to the local phone company wiring. Usually a jack on the wall.
The "demarcation point," or the point where the telephone company's wiring stops and your wiring begins. In other words, the phone company will charge you extra for any wiring work performed on your side of the demarc.
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 physical and electrical boundary between an end user's telecommunication equipment and the telecommunications network. The demarcation point establishes point of ownership and accountability.
The "line of demarcation" between your equipment and the phone companies circuits. Usually a RJ-45 jack provided by the phone company for the customer to connect his/her equipment to the network. Here's the deal: If you call the phone company, and it turns out the problem is on "your" side of the demarc then expect a bill.
Demarcation point, identifies the division of a loop or circuit responsibility, where the telco's responsibility ends, and the subscribers begins.
Connection point between the CPE and the CO ( i.e. a terminal block )
