A transmitting and receiving device, in which the received signal which is produced by the receiving device has only a small amount of crosstalk. This object is achieved by providing a transmitting and receiving device having a transmitting device for producing a transmission signal, a receiving device for producing a received signal, and a compensation device which is connected to the transmitting device and to the receiving device and which at least reduces any crosstalk which is produced by the transmitting device in the receiving device.
