  2. Node (networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(networking)

    In telecommunications networks, a node (Latin: nodus, ‘knot’) is either a redistribution point or a communication endpoint. A physical network node is an electronic device that is attached to a network, and is capable of creating, receiving, or transmitting information over a communication channel . [ 1 ]

  3. Telecommunications network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecommunications_network

    A telecommunications network is a group of nodes interconnected by telecommunications links that are used to exchange messages between the nodes. The links may use a variety of technologies based on the methodologies of circuit switching , message switching , or packet switching , to pass messages and signals.

  4. Node B - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_B

    Node B is the telecommunications node for mobile communication networks, namely those that adhere to the UMTS standard. The Node B provides the connection between mobile phones and the wider telephone network. UMTS is the dominating 3G standard. Node B corresponds to BTS (base transceiver station) in GSM.

  5. Intelligent Network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligent_Network

    The intelligence is provided by network nodes on the service layer, distinct from the switching layer of the core network, as opposed to solutions based on intelligence in the core switches or equipment. The IN nodes are typically owned by telecommunications service providers such as a telephone company or mobile phone operator.

  6. E-UTRA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-UTRA

    E-UTRAN is the combination of E-UTRA, user equipment (UE), and a Node B (E-UTRAN Node B or Evolved Node B, eNodeB). It is a radio access network (RAN) meant to be a replacement of the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS), High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA), and High-Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) technologies specified ...

  7. User equipment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_equipment

    It connects to the base station Node B/eNodeB as specified in the ETSI 125/136-series and 3GPP 25/36-series of specifications. It roughly corresponds to the mobile station (MS) in GSM systems. The radio interface between the UE and the Node B is called Uu. In the context of UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System), Uu stands for the ...

  8. Node-to-node data transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node-to-node_data_transfer

    In telecommunications, node-to-node data transfer [1] is the movement of data from one node of a network to the next. In the OSI model it is handled by the lowest two layers, the data link layer and the physical layer. In most communication systems, the transmitting point applies source coding, [2] followed by channel coding, and lastly, line ...

  9. Network interface device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_interface_device

    In telecommunications, a network interface device (NID; also known by several other names) is a device that serves as the demarcation point between the carrier's local loop and the customer's premises wiring. Outdoor telephone NIDs also provide the subscriber with access to the station wiring and serve as a convenient test point for ...
