    ATM: Asynchronous Transfer Mode
    Mostly used for maximizing network resources by segmenting and prioritising traffic and efficiently distributing bandwidth. This protoccol offers built-in QOS features and is primarily found in telecommunications, healthcare networking and media processing.

    Frame Relay

    Less expensive, but slower, than ATM and used mostly for telecommunications (WANs).
