Summary.

What term describes the process in which two or more computers or devices transfer data instructions and information?

Computer communications describes a process in which two or more computers or devices transfer data, instructions, and information. Figure 8-1 shows a sample communications system. Some communications involve cables and wires; others are sent wirelessly through the air.

What kind of communications device sends and receives data and information to and from a digital line such as ISDN and cable?

An ISDN modem sends digital data and information from a computer to an ISDN line and receives digital data and information from an ISDN line. A DSL modem sends digital data and information from a computer to a DSL line and receives digital data and information from a DSL line.

A star network consists of a single central cable, to which all computers and other devices connect.
