Modem • acronym for modulator-demodulator • converts a series of binary voltage pulses into an analog signal • the receiving modem translates the analog signal back into digital data
Date Flow: Simplex • only transmit in one direction One way Monitor Computer
Data Flow: Half Duplex • data may travel in both directions, but only in one direction at a time • non-simultaneous two-way communication • computers use control signals to negotiate when to send and when to receive
Data Flow: Full Duplex • complete two-way simultaneous transmission • faster than half-duplex communication because no turnaround time is needed
Used for connections between computer and modems, among other things 25-pin connector with a specific arrangement of leads computer usually has male DB25 connectors while modems are female In practice, fewer than 25 wires are generally used in applications RS-232C
DB-25 Female DB-25 Male RS-232 DB-25 Connectors
Limited RS-232 RS-232 DB-9 Connectors
