DTE
Data Terminal Equipment. Equipment that makes the
endpoints in a connection over a data connection—for
example, a data terminal, personal computer, host
computer, or printer.

DTMF signaling
Dual-Tone Multifrequency Signaling. Touch-tone signaling
from telephones using the voice transmission path. DTMF
signaling provides 12 distinct signals, each representing a
dialed digit or character, and each composed of two
voiceband frequencies.

E&M Signaling
Trunk supervisory signaling, used between two
communications systems, in which signaling information is
transferred through two-state voltage conditions (on the Ear
and Mouth leads) for analog applications and through two
bits for digital applications. See also
