Backward compatible definition

Backward compatible means that the newer version of a data transmission standard would retain, at a minimum, the full functionality of the versions previously adopted, and would permit the successful completion of the applicable transactions with entities that continue to use the older versions.
Backward compatible means that software can use files and data created with an older version of the same software program. Hardware is backward compatible if it can run the same software as the previous model.
Backward compatible means that a document storage system is compatible with earlier models or versions of the same product. Software is backward compatible if it can use files and data created with an older version of the same software program. Hardware is backward compatible if it can run the same software as the previous model.

Backward compatible means that one version or release of the Hardware or Software, starting with Release 3.0, will be interoperable with previous versions or releases of Hardware or Software, including backward compatibility as between the Software and the DOM, Software and previous versions or releases of Software, and between the Software of the DOM and the Software of the ANC card portion of the Product. The degree of backwards compatibility is to be mutually agreed by both parties. Currently, AIRVANA supports the current release, and previous two major releases, different "releases" being indicated by a change in the digit to the left of the decimal in the identifying number.

Related to Backward compatible

  • Spectrum Compatibility means the capability of two (2) copper loop transmission system technologies to coexist in the same cable without service degradation and to operate satisfactorily in the presence of cross talk noise from each other. Spectrum compatibility is defined on a per twisted pair basis for specific well-defined transmission systems. For the purposes of issues regarding Spectrum Compatibility, service degradation means the failure to meet the Bit Error Ratio (BER) and Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) margin requirements defined for the specific transmission system for all Loop lengths, model Loops, or loss values within the requirements for the specific transmission system.

  • SDSL or "Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line" is a baseband DSL transmission technology that permits the bi-directional transmission from up to 160 kbps to 2.048 Mbps on a single pair. "VDSL" or "Very High Speed Digital Subscriber Line" is a baseband DSL transmission technology that permits the transmission of up to 52 Mbps downstream (from the Central Office to the End User Customer) and up to 2.3 Mbps digital signal upstream (from the End User Customer to the Central Office). VDSL can also be 26 Mbps symmetrical, or other combination.
