INI?
An INI (Indoor Network Interface) is an thick wall plate device that acts as a legal point of demarcation in a customer’s apartment or condominium. Basically, it is where the phone company’s phone/data wires end and the customer’s home wiring starts. The phone company (and/or the property managers) are responsible for the wiring up to the INI and the customer (and/or the property manager) is responsible for any wiring after the INI. INIs are usually located in laundry closets, kitchens, bedrooms, or hall closets. Note: Not all apartments have an INI. A common INI is shown below.
