The point of interconnection between a user terminal and a private or public network. 2. The point of interconnection between the public switched network and a privately owned terminal. Note: Code of Federal Regulations, Title 47, part 68, stipulates the interface parameters. 3. The point of interconnection between one network and another network. 4. The point of demarcation between the carrier's facilities and the customer installation, which establishes the technical interface and division of operational responsibility. In this definition, the term "customer" refers to the end-user.
Industry:Telecommunications
The point of demarcation between networks when service is provided across multiple networks.
Industry:Telecommunications
The point of demarcation between a common carrier's facilities and customer's installation, which demarcation establishes both the technical interface and the division of operational responsibility. In this context, "customer" refers to the end-user. 2. The term used to refer to the network interface (NI) as well as to interfaces within the customer installation (CI. )
Industry:Telecommunications
The point of demarcation between (exchange) carriers that establishes the technical interface, test points, and division of operational responsibility.
Industry:Telecommunications
The point in an FM receiver at which the peaks in the rf signal equal the peaks of the thermal noise generated in the receiver. Note: A baseband signal-to-noise ratio of about 30 dB is typical at the improvement threshold, and this ratio improves 1 dB for each decibel of increase in the signal above the threshold.
Industry:Telecommunications
The plastic overcoat in intimate contact with the cladding of an optical fiber, applied during the manufacturing process. Note 1: The primary coating typically has an outside diameter of approximately 250 to 750 m, and serves to protect the fiber from mechanical damage and chemical attack. It also enhances optical fiber properties by stripping off cladding modes, and in the case where multiple fibers are used inside a single buffer tube, it suppresses cross-coupling of optical signals from one fiber to another. Note 2: The primary coating should not be confused with a tight buffer, or the plastic cladding of a plastic-clad-silica (PCS) fiber. Note 3: The primary coating, which typically consists of many layers, may be color-coded to distinguish fibers from one another, e.g., in a buffer tube containing multiple fibers. Synonyms primary polymer coating, primary polymer overcoat.
Industry:Telecommunications
The point code identification of the primary destination of the signaling connection control plan (SCCP) routing verification test (SRVT) message.
