A communication channel refers either to a physical transmission medium such as a wire, or to a logical connection over a multiplexed medium such as a radio channel in telecommunications and computer networking.

A channel has a certain capacity for transmitting information, often measured by its bandwidth in Hz or its data rate in bits per second.
