Baseband: The original frequency range of a signal before it is modulated for transmission. In data communication, baseband transmission allows digital signals to be sent directly over the medium without modulation into higher frequency ranges. This type of transmission is common in wired local area networks, where the entire bandwidth of the cable is used for a single signal or multiple signals in a time-division multiplexing manner.
