Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-001385
Describing a network connection that relies on physical cables to transmit data between devices, as opposed to wireless methods that use radio waves. These connections provide a stable and secure link for computers, printers, and other network hardware. Common wired technologies include Ethernet, which uses twisted-pair cables like Cat6, and fiber optic connections for higher speeds over longer distances.
