Frame Relay

About Frame Relay

Frame Relay is a widely used wide-area network technology that uses packet switching to define the physical and data connection levels of digital telecommunications channels.

Frame Relay for voice (VoFR) and data is a typical encapsulation method used between local area networks (LANs) over a wide area network (WAN). To a Frame Relay node, each end user is given a private connection (or leased line). All widely used WAN protocols for end users are transparent to how the Frame Relay network manages the transmission over a constantly shifting channel.

Frame relay has gained immense popularity across the globe resulting in huge demand for certified professionals.

Why is Frame Relay important?

Frame relay transmits data in a unit of variable size known as a frame and leaves it up to the endpoints to do any necessary error correction or resend. Data transfer is sped up by this method. The network offers a persistent virtual circuit for the majority of services (PVC).

Frame relay certified professionals, executives and managers are in high demand in companies across the globe.
