Frame Relay: Term Paper On

Frame relay is a packet-switched transmission service that minimizes overhead by reducing error detection and recovery within networks. This allows for lower delay and higher throughput compared to traditional approaches. Frame relay offers features that make it ideal for interconnecting wide area networks (WANs) using a shared infrastructure, providing a more cost-effective alternative to private lines or circuit switching over leased lines as network size increases.
