Which device uses parallel transmission?
Correct answer: A. Printer
- A. Printer
- B. Keyboard
- C. Mouse
- D. Modem
Explanation
Parallel transmission involves sending multiple bits of data simultaneously across multiple wires. This allows for faster data transfer than serial transmission, which sends bits one at a time. Printers are one of the most common devices that use parallel transmission. Parallel ports were once a standard feature on computers, but they have largely been replaced by USB ports.
