E standard
The EIA-232-E
standard specifies the interface between (for example) a modem
and a computer so that they can exchange data. The computer can then send data
to the modem, which then sends the data over a telephone line. The data that the
modem receives from the telephone line can then be sent to the computer. You can
search for information about the standard on the Web.
