Definition

  • Telecommunication refers to point-to-point or networked electronic transmissions of information—telegraph, telephone, wireless, and data (i.e., the Internet). Telecommunication networks can use both cable and wireless transmissions, although in the wireless realm telecommunications are still characterized as networked or person-to-person links rather than one-to-many broadcast media.
