FRAD (Frame Relay Access Device or Frame Relay Assembler/Disassembler) is a device that turns data packets into frame relay frames that can be sent over Frame Relay network and turns the received Frame Relay frames into data packets. Its assembly/disassembly functionality is similar to a PAD or Packet Assembler/Disassembler, which is used for accessing X.25 networks.
