Abstract
This chapter discusses Data Communication Equipment (DCE). It describes any equipment carrying data communications between terminals. Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) may be a personal computer, server or workstation. Typically DCE includes modems for transmitting data over telephone lines, and local area network (LAN) equipment such as routers, bridges, hubs and gateways. A number of specialized test instruments and accessories are required for testing data communications systems. The most common items are patch boxes, gender changers, null modems, line monitors, breakout boxes, interface testers, oscilloscopes, and multi-meters.
