    Study Notes

    Data Transmission

    • Data transmission occurs over varying distances, including short distances (e.g., computer to printer) and longer distances (e.g., global networks).

    Factors of Data Transmission

    • Three primary factors are considered when transmitting data:
    • Direction of transmission: Determines whether data transmits in one direction only or in both directions.
    • Method of transmission: Refers to how many bits can be sent at the same time.
    • Data synchronisation: Ensures the received data is in the correct order.

    Communication Protocol

    • Communication protocols consider the above factors to facilitate effective data transmission.
