A practical, accessible survey of telecommunications and data communications services and technologies

Passive Optical Network (PON)

802.11g/n

Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO)

Broadband over Power Line (BPL)

Instant Messaging

ZigBee

In addition, Telecommunications and Data Communications Handbook expands on topics of increasing interest, including:

Fiber Optics

Wireless, including Bluetooth

Cellular, including 2.5G and 3G, photos, video, and ring tones and ring-back tones

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), including IP PBX and IP Centrex

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) vs. H.323

Complete with a discussion of the current regulatory and business environments, including divestiture and revestiture as well as mergers and acquisitions, this is the ideal reference for non-engineering professionals in the end-user, carrier, content or service provider, manu-facturing, regulatory, or financial communities.

Ray Horak held management and executive management positions with Southwestern Bell, Continental Telephone Company (CONTEL), and Communications Group Inc. An independent consultant and popular speaker, trainer, author, columnist, and writer, he is the author of the bestselling Communications Systems and Networks, published most recently by Wiley and now in its third edition.
