'''Point of presence (POP)''' is the point at which two or more different[[Network|networks]] or communication devices build a connection with each other. POP mainly refers to an access point, location or facility that connects to and helps other devices establish a connection with the [[Internet]]. POP is primarily the infrastructure that allows remote users connect to connect to the Internet. A POP is generally present at an [[Internet service provider (ISP)]] or the telecommunication service provider. It can consist of a router, switches, servers and other [[Data|data]] communication devices. An ISP or telecom provider might maintain more than one POP at different locations, with each catering to a distinct user base. Moreover, POP also supports the conversion of analog to digital data and vice versa to complement different data communication technologies and receiving devices.<ref>Definition - What does Point of Presence (POP) mean?

Points of presence work very much like Internet exchange points, only on a smaller scale. The equipment located in a point of presence can be broken down into five categories:
*Base stations: A central point of connection with an access point and bandwidth management to distribute connection speeds
*Client equipment: Used by customers to connect to the central point of connection
*Network switches: Provides the link to the “last mile” and is used for distribution
*Routers– Provides multiple routes to the network
*Firewall– Protects from internal and external threats
