9 Related Definitions: "Bandwidth of onevoice channel" is data communicationequipment designed to operate in one voicechannel of 3,100 Hz, as defined in CCITTR ecommendation "Communicationschannel controller" is the physical interfacethat controls the flow of synchronous orasynchronous digital information. It is anassembly that can be integrated into computeror telecommunications equipment to providecommunications access. "Datagram" is aself-contained, independent entity of datacarrying sufficient information to be routedfrom the source to the destination dataterminal equipment without reliance on earlierexchanges between this source anddestination data terminal equipment and thetransporting network.
