A terminal is described, along with a method for data processing carried out by the terminal, for communication via a plurality of interfaces of the terminal. The terminal can include a first interface for communication via a radiofrequency link, and a second interface for communication via a short-range link, where the second interface can be polluted by the radiofrequency link used by the first interface. The terminal can be configured to activate the first interface, deactivate the first interface and initiate a time-out during which the terminal can activate a third interface for communication via an optical link, and then activate the second interface.
