Virtual circuit
A virtual circuit (VC) is a communications arrangement in which data from a source user may be passed to a destination user over more than one real communications circuit during a single period of communication, but the switching is hidden from the users. A widely used virtual circuit protocol is the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP).
