Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-001017
A network device that regenerates and retransmits signals to extend the range of a network. It operates at the physical layer of the OSI model, amplifying or reconstructing the signal to overcome attenuation caused by cable length. Repeaters do not perform any intelligent routing or filtering of data packets.
