MPOE (Minimum Point Of Entry)

Local Carriers are responsible for bringing lines to the Minimum Point Of Entry (MPOE) for multi-dwelling business, high-rise, and apartment buildings. If the line is brought to the MPOE by the local carrier (ILEC - Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier), the CLEC (Competitive Local Exchange Carrier) is responsible for finding and wiring an available pair from the MPOE to the Customer Premise Equipment (CPE, AKA Router) location.

MPOE's are also referred to as NIDs and DMARCs.
