The **FR(FrameRelay)**, It is a connectionless service, which generally means that every data packet that passes over the network contains address information

- The **FrameRelay** is a service that is provided with a variety of speeds from 56 Kbs to 25 Mbs. Even though the speeds most used for the service are currently 56 Kbs and 1,544 Mbs
- These frames are of the variable length and go up to 4,096 bytes
- The **FR(FrameRelay)** is considered a broadband ISDN service
- This operates at high speed (1,544 Mbps to 44,376 Mbps).
- This operates only on the physical and data link layers. So, it can be easily used on the Internet.
- This has a large frame size of 9000 bytes. So, this can accommodate all local area network frame sizes.
- This FrameRelay can only detect errors (at the data link layer). But, there is no flow control or error control.
- This operates in the data link layer.
