Everything about Direct cable connection
Feature of Microsoft Windows
Direct Cable Connection (DCC) is a feature of Microsoft Windows that allows a computer to transfer and share files with another computer, via a connection using either the serial port, parallel port or the infrared port of each computer. It is well suited to computers that do not have an Ethernet adapter installed, although DCC in Windows XP can be configured to use one if available. Wikipedia →
