Character-oriented terminal
A
character-oriented terminal
is a type of
computer terminal
that communicates with its host one character at a time, as opposed to a
block-oriented terminal
that communicates in blocks of data. It is the most common type of data terminal, because it's easy to implement and program. Connection to the
mainframe computer
or
terminal server
is achieved via
RS-232
serial links,
Ethernet
or other
proprietary protocols
.
