Traffic Engineering Routing
Traffic Engineering Routing is routing that is deliberately shaped to meet performance, capacity, resilience, or policy objectives rather than simply choosing a shortest path.
Operations
Traffic Shaping
Traffic Shaping is the deliberate pacing or buffering of network traffic so it conforms to a desired rate or profile.
Operations
Transport Network
A transport network is the set of links, nodes, and control functions that carry traffic between source and destination across a communications system. It provides the path structure that higher-level…
Concept/Framework
Trunking
Trunking is the sharing of a common communication resource, such as radio channels or network links, among multiple users or services, improving resource utilization through dynamic allocation.
Operations
Trusted-Node Relay
The practical method for extending quantum key distribution beyond the range a single direct fiber link supports, decrypting and re-encrypting the key at each intermediate node along a chain of…
Concept/Framework
UDP
A connectionless transport protocol that sends discrete data packets without establishing a session, confirming delivery, or guaranteeing order, trading TCP's reliability guarantees for minimal overhead and lower latency.
Protocol
Unmanned Surface Vessel Link
Unmanned Surface Vessel Link is the communication link that connects an unmanned surface vessel with remote operators, networks, or support systems to enable command, telemetry, and operational data exchange.
Hardware
Upconverter
Upconverter is a frequency conversion stage that shifts a signal from a lower frequency to a higher frequency for transmission or further processing by mixing the input signal with a…
Hardware
Video Streaming
Video streaming is the network delivery of video content as a continuous data flow that can be consumed in near real time or on demand. It relies on transport, caching,…
Service Model
Virtual Private Cloud
Virtual Private Cloud is a logically isolated network environment inside a public cloud that provides private networking controls for an organization.
