Telecommunications vs. Networking

Telecommunications

Telecommunication is the transmission of information by various types of technologies over wire, radio, optical, or other electromagnetic systems. It has its origin in the desire of humans for communication over a distance greater than that feasible with the human voice, but with a similar scale of expediency; thus, slow systems (such as postal mail) are excluded from the field.

Networkingnoun

The use of computer networks.

Networkingnoun

The process of meeting new people in a business or social context.

Networkingnoun

Interchanging information or services, among a group; - of persons or organizations.
