T
T1 A digital transmission link with a capacity of 1.544 Mbit/s, used in North
America. Typically channelized into 24 DS0s, each is capable of carrying a
single voice conversation or data stream. Uses two pairs of twisted pair wires.

TCP/IP Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. An open network
standard that defines how devices from different manufacturers communicate
with each other over interconnected networks. TCP/IP protocols are the
foundation of the Internet.

time zone The temporal equivalent of a geographical location in terms of
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). In MeetingPlace each profile has a time zone
setting, which should be set to reflect the office location where the user
regularly does business.

tunneling A technology that enables one network to send its data through
another network’s connections. Tunneling works by encapsulating a network
protocol within packets carried by the second network.

twisted pair Relatively low-speed transmission medium consisting of two
insulated wires, shielded or unshielded, in regular spiral patterns. The wires
are twisted around each other to minimize interference from other twisted
pairs in the cable. Twisted pair is common in telephone wiring and is
increasingly common in data networks. Other high-speed forms of cable
include coaxial and fiber optic cables.
