Terminal Complex
First computer telecommunication systems early 60s: local multi-user systems - terminal
complex
Classical Terminal Complex - shares computer
resources among closely located users via
telecommunication lines
Computer configuration (CPU / RAM / Channel
(usually phone line))
Transmission medium:
wires/cables: pairs or cable set of pairs; twisted pairs
for reduction of signal interference; coaxial cables (noise
shield)

Terminal Complex
Terminal Complex
advantage: chipper
drawback: slower, noisy
application: smaller traffic
Terminal Complex
Standard Interface
usually bus of 30-60 signal lines
physical parameters: line length; signal
parameters (amplitude, frequency, working
mode: monopoly, multiplex, block-multiplex);
multiplexors number
Multiplexor:
transforms parallel (byte) stream from terminals
to sequential (bit) stream for the channel
interface
addressing the terminals - 2 methods: cycle
time-driven or event driven selection
error control
same functions in opposite direction (from
channel to terminals)
Terminal Complex
