Computer Science for IGCSE & O level - Data Transmission (Section 15 - No. 10)
Why is serial data transmission often preferred for transmitting data over long distances?
Because it allows for higher transmission speeds.
Because it uses fewer wires, making cabling simpler and more cost-effective.
Because it offers better protection against interference.
Because it is more resistant to errors.
