A modem (modulator-demodulator) converts digital data from a computer into analog signals for transmission over telephone lines or other communication media (modulation) and vice versa (demodulation). The input of a modem is typically digital data from a device like a computer or router, while the output is an analog signal suitable for transmission. Conversely, the input received by the modem is an analog signal from the communication medium, which it converts back into digital data for the receiving device. This process enables internet connectivity and data communication over various types of networks.
A modem (Modulator-demodulator) is both. It allows you to input data (download) and output data (upload).
A modem can be used for sending (output) and/or receiving (input).
I believe it is both an input and an output device, but I will check
It is both an Input and an Output device.
A modem is one of those devices that is both an input and an output device.
A keyboard is an input device. A modem is both an input and an output device. A CPU is the central processor and is connected to both input and output devices but is itself neither.
both
An input output device that modulates and demodulates is a modem.
Data flows through the modem both ways.
communication
MODEM Stands for MOdulator DEModulator. It acts both as an input & output (SIGNAL) as it converts incoming analog signals to digital and viceversa. Incoming - while downloading. Outgoing - while uploading.
Modem is short for MODulate/DEModulate. It modulates a signal to send across a serial wire, and demodulates the signal that comes back.In other words, a modem is both an input AND an output device.
