| Point Of Presence (POP) |
| All the hardware (leased lines, routers, etc.) in your ISP's backroom make up a Point of Presence. For example, Compuserve has POP's (places you can dial in to) all over the world -- we opened a Compuserve account this summer in Paris and my sister has one in Israel! |
