Computer communication is the transmission of data and information over a communications channel between two computers, which can be several different things.

Communications between computers can be as simple as cabling two computers to the same printer. It can be as complex as a computer at NASA sending messages through an elaborate system of relays and satellites to tell a computer on Mars how to drive around without hitting the rocks.

Depending on the context, for computer communications you might use the terms:

Data Communications for transmission of data and information over a communications channel
 
Telecommunications for any long-distance communications, especially television
 
Teleprocessing for accessing computer files located elsewhere

Transmission media just means the physical materials that are used to transmit data between computers.

 Cable

For communications between computers that are linked by cable, there are three choices.

Broadcast

For longer distances or when cables are not practical, other transmission media come into play. We're getting really high tech here!

It may seem odd to call microwaves, radio waves, or light a "physical" medium. All are electromagnetic in nature. Sometimes they are treated by scientists like streams of teeny, tiny particles and other times like waves on the beach. In their "particle" life, they do behave like a bunch of physical particles. So it's not quite as odd as it first appears. (But all those electromagnetic things are plenty odd!)
