A fragment of data that is packaged into a frame format, which comprises 
a header, payload, and trailer. 

A packet-switching protocol for connecting devices on a Wide Area 
Network (WAN). Frame Relay networks in the U.S. support data transfer 
rates at T1 (1.544 Mbps) and T3 (45 Mbps) speeds. Most telephone 
companies now provide Frame Relay service for customers who want 
connections at 56 Kbps to T1 speeds. However, it is being replaced in 
some areas by faster technologies, such as ATM.

Foreign Exchange. A Central Office trunk which has access to a distant 
central office. Dial Tone is returned from that distant Central Office, and 
a location can be reached in the area of the foreign Central Office by 
dialing a local number. This will provide easier access for customers in 
that area and calls may be made anywhere in the foreign exchange area 
for a flat rate.

Foreign Exchange Office. Foreign exchange (FX) service is a service 
that can be ordered from the telephone company that provides local 
telephone service from a central office which is outside (foreign to) the 
subscriber’s exchange area. Simply, a user can pick up the phone in one 
city and receive a dial tone in the foreign city. This kind of connection is 
provided by a type of trunk called foreign exchange (FX) trunk. FX trunk 
signaling can be provided over analog or T1 links. Connecting POTS 
telephones to a computer telephony system via T1 links requires a 
channel bank configured with FX type connections.

A link from one computer system to a different computer system. 

A physical connection to the earth or other reference point.
