On-premises wiring (customer premises wiring) is customer-owned telecommunication transmission or distribution lines.〔(TSP Service User Manual, p 2-4 ) National Communications System 2000 May 5〕 The transmission lines may be metallic (copper) or optical fiber, and may be installed within or between buildings. Premises wiring may consist of horizontal wiring, vertical wiring, and backbone cabling. It may extend from the point-of-entry to user work areas. Any type of communications or data wiring is considered premises wiring, including telephone, computer/data, intercom, closed-circuit television. Premises networks are wired worldwide, across every industry, in both small and large scale applications. Any type or number of topologies may be used -- star, bus, ring, etc. ==Ownership== The ownership of on-premises wiring varies between jurisdictions: It depends on the location of the demarcation point. The location determines ownership and responsibility for maintenance and repair. In the US and Canada, most premises wiring is owned by the customer. There generally is a demarcation point "as close to the poles" as possible. For many installations, this is a network interface device mounted on the outside of the building. In some cases, it is a minimum-point-of-entry (MPOE) location inside the building. In the UK, the demarcation point is the wall jack, and hence most of the on-premises wiring is the property of the telephone company. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「On-premises wiring」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
