Backbone

Definition by BestHost Ratings

A term that is often used to describe the main network connections that comprise the Internet or other major network. This term is relative since a backbone in a small network will likely be much smaller than many non-backbone lines in a large network. Backbones are operated by major telecommunications companies such as Global Crossing GBLX Sprint, AT&T.
