While wave division multiplexing increases the number of channels simultaneously running across a fiber, time division multiplexing increases the speed at which each bit of information travels over that fiber.

Now, the company has adopted a strategy that will see it double its production of frame relay, Asynchronous Transfer Mode ( ATM ), and Time Division Multiplexing, or TDM, technologies, Matthews said.

As an example, the Bluetooth communication system is based on a combination of frequency-hopping and either CSMA / CA statistical time division multiplexing communication ( for data communication applications ) or TDMA ( for audio transmission ).

In telephone networks, digital communication is utilized for transferring many phone calls over the same copper cable or fiber cable by means of Pulse code modulation ( PCM ), i . e . sampling and digitization, in combination with Time division multiplexing ( TDM ) ( 1962 ).

The company ended support for the older TDM technology for use with its HDX products . ( TDM stood for Time Division Multiplexing; though it was sometimes known as Time Domain Multiplexing . ) Avid advised users that Pro Tools 10 would be the final release for Pro Tools | HD Process and Accel systems, and that its TDM technology would be discontinued.
