The different features of Frame Relay are :
* Frame Relay is a connectionless service, which means that every data packet that passes over the network contains address information
* Frame Relay is a service that is provided with a variety of speeds from 56 Kbs to 25 Mbs. Although the speeds most used for the service are currently 56 Kbs and 1,544 Mbs
* The frames are of variable length and go up to 4,096 bytes
* Frame Relay is considered a broadband ISDN service
* It operates at high speed (1,544 Mbps to 44,376 Mbps).
* It operates only on the physical and data link layers. Therefore, it can be easily used on the Internet.
* It has a large frame size of 9000 bytes. Therefore, it can accommodate all local area network frame sizes.
* Frame Relay can only detect errors (at the data link layer). But there is no flow control or error control. It operates in the data link layer.
