- Company Profile:
ATIS is the leading technical planning and standards development organization committed to the rapid development of global, market-driven standards for the information, entertainment and communications industry.
All services other than message telephones, e.g., teletypewriter exchange service (TWX,) private line services.
Industry:Telecommunications
All telecommunication equipment and wiring on the customer side of the network interface.
Industry:Telecommunications
All the cabling and equipment installed in a telecommunications facility, including the main distribution frame (MDF) and all the equipment extending inward therefrom, such as PABX or central office equipment, MDF protectors, and grounding systems. 2. In radio and radar systems, all communications-electronics (C-E) equipment that is installed in buildings.
Industry:Telecommunications
All the facilities and equipment used to provide telecommunications services. Note: Plant is usually characterized as outside plant or inside plant. Outside plant, for example, includes all poles, repeaters and unoccupied buildings housing them, ducts, and cables--including the "inside" portion of interfacility cables outward from the main distributing frame (MDF) in a central office or switching center. Inside plant includes the MDF and all equipment and facilities within a central office or switching center.
Industry:Telecommunications
Also 2-wire circuit. A full-duplex communications circuit that utilizes only two metallic conductors, e.g., a single twisted pair.
Industry:Telecommunications
Also E-mail, and email, Abbreviation for electronic mail. An electronic means for communication in which (a) usually text is transmitted (but sometimes also graphics and/or audio information,) (b) operations include sending, storing, processing, and receiving information, (c) users are allowed to communicate under specified conditions, and (d) messages are held in storage until called for by the addressee. Some e-mail software permits the attachment of separate electronic files, e.g., word-processor files, graphics files, audio files.

Industry:Telecommunications
AM transmission in which both sidebands and the carrier are transmitted.
Industry:Telecommunications
Amplitude modulation (AM) transmission in which the carrier level is reduced below that required for demodulation. Note 1: Reduction of the carrier level permits higher power levels in the sidebands than would be possible with conventional AM transmission. Note 2: Carrier power must be restored by the receiving station to permit demodulation. Note 3: Suppressed carrier transmission is a special case of reduced carrier transmission.
Industry:Telecommunications
Amplitude modulation of the output of a radio transmitter by means of a variable-impedance circuit that is caused to absorb carrier power in accordance with the modulating wave.
