Examples of frame breakers
Frame breakers are devices or techniques used to intentionally interrupt or "break" a frame in a communication system, such as a network or a transmission line, in order to prevent damage or disruption caused by a fault or overload. Here are some examples of frame breakers:
- Frame Relay Frame Breaker: A device that detects and discards faulty frames in a Frame Relay network, preventing them from propagating and causing network congestion or errors.
- Ethernet Frame Breaker: A device that detects and discards faulty Ethernet frames, preventing them from causing network errors or congestion.
- SONET/SDH Frame Breaker: A device that detects and discards faulty frames in a SONET/SDH (Synchronous Optical Network/Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) network, preventing them from causing network errors or congestion.
- TDM (Time-Division Multiplexing) Frame Breaker: A device that detects and discards faulty frames in a TDM network, preventing them from causing network errors or congestion.
- Error-Correcting Code (ECC) Frame Breaker: A device that detects and corrects errors in a frame using ECC, preventing them from causing network errors or congestion.
- Frame Synchronizer: A device that synchronizes frames in a communication system, detecting and discarding faulty frames that may cause network errors or congestion.
- Frame Analyzer: A device that analyzes frames in a communication system, detecting and discarding faulty frames that may cause network errors or congestion.
- Network Interface Card (NIC) Frame Breaker: A feature built into a NIC that detects and discards faulty frames, preventing them from causing network errors or congestion.
- Switching Fabric Frame Breaker: A feature built into a switching fabric that detects and discards faulty frames, preventing them from causing network errors or congestion.
- Software-based Frame Breaker: A software-based solution that detects and discards faulty frames in a communication system, preventing them from causing network errors or congestion.
These are just a few examples of frame breakers. The specific type of frame breaker used depends on the communication system, network architecture, and the type of faults or errors that need to be detected and prevented.
