Term
CPE
Definition
Customer Premise Equipment: Devices that are physically located on the subscriber's premises. These devices are usually owned by the customer or leased from the WAN provider.
Term
DEMARC
Definition
DEMARCATION: The point where CPE ends and the local loop begins, usually in the customer's main data closet.
Term
LOCAL LOOP
Definition
(Last Mile): Cabling that extends from the demarc to the WAN service provider's central office.
Term
CENTRAL OFFICE
Definition
CO The WAN service provider's switching facility, which provides the nearest point of presence (POP) for the service. The service provider's switching facility can also be called a POP.
Term
DTE
Definition
DATA TERMINAL EQUIPMENT
Term
DATA COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT
Definition
A device at the end of the local loop that attaches to the DTE. The DCE provides clocking and conversion of data into a suitable format for transmission across the local loop. Examples of Data Communications Equipment include modems, terminal adapters (TA), network termination (NT1), and channel service unit/data service unit (CSU/DSU).
