http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jumbo_frame (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jumbo_frame) I may have found the answer, it's an option to basicly provide a large data/bytes transfer but the hardware has to support it and it mainly is used on a gigabit network some fast Ethernet 100 mbit networks support it

Correction - gigabit is not supported on 100mbit Ethernet.
