Baseband

Baseband is a type of a network technology where only one carrier frequency is used. In a baseband network, information is carried in digital form on a single unmultiplexed signal channel on the transmission medium. Ethernet and Token Ring are examples of a baseband network. Baseband in signal transmisson may mean a signal's bandwidth before modulation and multiplexing, or after demultiplexing and demodulation.
