Specialty Definition: Transceiver

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In computer networking, the term transceiver is a device that performs, within one chassis, both transmitting and receiving functions that is in a common housing, sometimes designed for portable or mobile use, uses common circuit components for both transmitting and receiving which provides half-duplex operation.

Transceivers were once commonly used in ethernet 10BASE5 networks.
