Acronym: MPOP
MPOP – Minimum Point of Presence.
I’ve also seen it listed as Minimum Point of Penetration. This is the point where a telecommunication provider will deliver their service. In most residential services this point is outside of the house at a NID (Network Interface Device)., Many times in Multi-family complexes such as apartments it may be in a common building service closet. For commercial buildings it’s a point inside the building, usually within 15 to 20 feet from an external wall.
Wherever it’s located it serves as the demarcation point between the carrier and the customer.
