Prolog information
The following table summarizes the protocols used at various points in the data transmission stream. See also the figure.
Pulse Code Modulated is known as PCM and Digital Multiplexed Interface is known as DMI.

The physical-layer protocol and the DMI mode used in the connection are dependent upon the type of 8-bit code used at Layer 2 between the DTE and DCE equipment, as listed in the table and the table.
