Coaxial cable A twin-conductor cable used for computer networking, in either a thick or thin form. This cable consists of a centre core wire (stranded or single core) covered by insulation, a second conductor of woven wire, and an external covering of rubber. Thin coaxial cable resembles television cable. Thick coaxial cable has an increased diameter outer bore and is often yellow or orange in color.

C-3

CSMA/CD Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection, the Ethernet protocol that allows each device to create and send its own data packets. CSMA/CD is used to avoid excessive collisions between packets as they are randomly transmitted. A CSMA/CD device first listens for other carriers, if it detects no other carriers, it will then allow the data packet to be transmitted. If a collision is detected, the device stops transmitting, waits a random length of time, and begins transmitting again.

D Channel A control channel carrying signalling information, running at 16 Kbps. The basic rate ISDN 2 service carries two B channels plus one control D channel. Refer to ISDN and B Channel.

Data Characters or code either entered by the user or passed between devices that are part of the computer or network.

Data communications The transfer of data via transceiver equipment by means of data transmission according to a protocol. Refer to Protocol.
