UDP

User Datagram Protocol uses a special type of packet called

 

a datagram. Datagrams do not require a response; they are

 

one way only (connectionless). Datagrams are usually used

 

for streaming media because an occasional packet loss will

 

not affect the final product of the transmission.

U Rack Height Unit

A standard computer rack has an internal width of 17 inches.

 

Rack space on a standard rack is measured in units of height

 

(U). One U is 1.75 inches. A device that has a height of 3.5

 

inches takes 2U of rack space.
