Annual Report as at 31
December 2014
179
Carrier
Company that physically makes a telecommunications
network available.
Co-location
Dedicated spaces in the machine rooms of an incumbent
operator for the installation by Tiscali of its own network
devices.
CPS
Acronym for Carrier Pre Selection, a system for
preselecting an operator. This enables an operator/supplier
of local services to automatically route calls on the network
of the carrier selected by a client who no longer has to
enter special selection codes.
CS
Acronym for Carrier Selection, a system for selecting an
operator. Enables a client to select, by entering a special
code, a long distance national or international operator
other than that with whom he/she has a network access
subscription.
Business customers
SoHos, small medium and large businesses.
Consumer customers
Customers who subscribe to an offer intended for
households.
Dial Up
Narrowband internet connection by means of a normal
telephone call, usually charged on a time basis.
Digital
This is the way of representing a physical variable in a
language that uses only the figures 0 and 1. The figures
are transmitted in binary code as a series of impulses.
Digital networks, which are rapidly replacing the old
analogue networks, allow greater capacities and greater
flexibility by using computerised technologies for the
transmission and handling of calls. Digital systems offer
less noise interference and can include encryption as
protection from outside interference.
Double Play
Combined offer of access to the Internet and fixed
telephony.
DSL Network
Acronym for Digital Subscriber Line Network, which is a
network built from existing telephone lines using DSL
technology instruments that, by using sophisticated
modulation mechanisms, enable data packets to be sent
along copper wires and thus the linking of a telephone
handset to a modem at a home or in an office.
DSLAM
Acronym for Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer, a
device used in DLS technologies, to multiply the
transmission of data at high capacities on telephone wires,
where a multiplexer means a device that enables the
transmission of information (voice, data, videos) in flows by
means of direct and continuous connections between two
different points on a network.
