aliases: DP A royalty-free, modern video connection port standard found mostly on PCs. Features: can carry multiple streams of high-quality digital video and audio, but not ethernet supports resolutions up to 8K (8194 x 4320) max cable lengths of 35 feet ...
DIMM
The default Random-Access-Memory module used in desktops. DIMM RAM modules store data using a single transistor for every bit of data. However, it doesn't retain data after power loss; power must be continually supplied for it to remember what was saved. #III
Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM
aliases: EEPROM Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory: non-volatile memory that stores and retains small amounts of data, even when power is loss EEPROM was intended as the replacement for CMOS chips due to their shortcomings. #III
Unbound Media
A form of networking medium that doesn't physically contain the communicated data stream (e.g. wireless). This can mean the data is being sent over radio waves or light waves. #III
Fiber Optic Media
An unbound networking medium that uses light waves and fiber optic cabling to transmit data. #III

aliases: MSD A document that explains how to properly handle certain dangerous materials and situations. Features: a listing of hazardous materials and equipment the potential effects of exposure requirements for the handling and storage of hazardous mate...
Asset
An item or piece of information that is valuable and is important to keep for an organization. #II
Magnetic Interference
A type of interference that's caused by strong magnetic impulses. It affects hard drives the most out of anything. #II
Organic Light Emitting Diodes
aliases: OLED A variant of LED that uses a different type of technology to produce a higher resolution and contrast than that of LED. It can be transparent, allowing for use in foldable displays. However, OLED displays suffer from burn-ins when a static im...
Global System for Mobile Communication
aliases: GSM A mobile device authentication system that allows cellular network subscribers to use a SIM card to use an unlocked mobile device with their providers. #XII
Code Division Multiple Access
aliases: CDMA A mobile network authentication system that allows cellular network providers to directly manage mobile devices used by their subscribers without the use of a SIM card #XII
