]]> Comment on As Released in Cabling Installation & Maintenance Magazine: White Paper Exposes Lack of Standardization for Demarc Extensions by Mark McClure http://www.demarcextension.com/blog/?p=32&cpage=1#comment-7 Mark McClure Sat, 22 May 2010 08:33:01 +0000 http://www.demarcextension.com/blog/?p=32#comment-7 This is an interesting white paper - and as a former network engineer who worked with in-house cabling teams and the local telco's commissioning teams, I can relate to the demarc issues you've described. I've one observation on the section titled, "IP Technology and The Demarc Extension", on page 6. Maybe it's different in N.America, but since many carriers in Asia-Pacific install their fiber into newer buildings, when the building is lit the number of demarc instances on user floors is reduced because IP services can be multiplexed/trunked over a smaller number of cables. In contrast, with legacy cabling infra and comms technology, there may have been multiple, dedicated cables.
