optical cable
Fiber, multiple fibers, or a fiber bundle in a structure built to meet optical, mechanical,
and environmental specifications.
See also
jumper cable
,
optical cable assembly, and
trunk cable.
optical cable assembly
Optical cable that is connector-terminated.
See
jumper cable and optical cable.
optical fiber connector
Hardware component that transfers optical power between two optical fibers or
bundles and is designed to be repeatedly connected and disconnected.
out-of-band management
Transmission of management information using frequencies or channels other than
those routinely used for information transfer.
P
packet
Logical unit of information (usually in the form of a data frame) transmitted on a
network. It contains a header (with all relevant addressing and timing information), the
actual data, and a trailer (which contains the error checking function, usually in the
form of a cyclic redundancy check) and frequently user data.
password
Unique string of characters known to the computer system and to a user who must
specify it to gain full or limited access to a system and to the information stored within
it.
path
In a network, any route between any two ports.
