DEMARC Location

How do I find where DEMARC terminated?

Thanks.

It depends , In the US it is generally where the LEC drops the connection in to your building, you may be able to locate this by tracing the cable from your CSU to the smart jack on the wall. Sometimes there is an extended demarc. This occurrs when the Lec drops the circuit in to the building ,i.e. the basment , and the equipment is located on a higher floor i.e. the 8th floor , the portion between the basement and the 8th floor woulf be considered the extended demarc.

Thank you very much for your quick response. I'm in the US. So, after I trace the cable from my CSU to the smart jack on the wall, whatever equipment on the wall is my demarc?

Thanks.

[deilert]

yes , the smartjack would be considered the demarc.
