Definition that contains digital communication
- atm a means of digital communications that is capable of very high speeds; suitable for transmission of images or voice or video as well as data
- synchronous (digital communication) pertaining to a transmission technique that requires a common clock signal (a timing reference) between the communicating devices in order to coordinate their transmissions
- asynchronous (digital communication) pertaining to a transmission technique that does not require a common clock between the communicating devices; timing signals are derived from special characters in the data stream itself
- asynchronous transfer mode a means of digital communications that is capable of very high speeds; suitable for transmission of images or voice or video as well as data
