=====================
não serve a palavra em inglês, como normalmente utilizada, e não creio que seja "sincronização", neste caso, como consta no glossário da ProZ. Alguém sabe a tradução desse termo?

sinalização
Explanation:
Beacon é uma luz usada para sinalização.
Entretanto, pelo contexto, um "beacon frame" é um frame de sinalização e sincronismo.
