Since this is the EMC list, you must be asking in reference to EMC.
DNC doesn't make sense in this case.  DNC was a nasty hack, which only
looked good when compared to paper tape.  Drip-feeding a machine
with hundreds of blocks of lookahead is totally the wrong approach.

Maybe you'd better tell us why you are asking, to get a better answer.

Ethernet and FTP do a really nice job of replacing DNC.
