WHAT DOES TRUNK CALL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Trunking

In telecommunications, trunking is a method for a system to provide network access to many clients by sharing a set of lines or frequencies instead of providing them individually. This is analogous to the structure of a tree with one trunk and many branches. Examples of this include telephone systems and the VHF radios commonly used by police agencies. More recently port trunking has been applied in computer networking as well. A trunk is a single transmission channel between two points, each point being either the switching center or the node.
