Answer:

Jumbo frames

Step-by-step explanation:

Ethernet frames having a payload size above 1500 bytes are called Jumbo frames. The maximum MTU value set by the IEEE 802.3 is 1500 bytes, but jumbo frames have sizes up to a maximum of 9000 bytes, hence they do not meet the standards of IEEE 802.3. They are used in local area networks that can transmit data at high rates of 1 gigabits per second.
