handover
This term describes a transition of authority or possession, often carrying a connotation of formality or official procedure. It is frequently used in political or corporate contexts to describe the orderly transfer of leadership, where the emphasis is on the seamless shift of power rather than the act of giving a gift.
In technical environments, specifically telecommunications, the word takes on a precise mechanical meaning. It refers to the invisible, automated switching of a signal between network nodes, where any failure in the process results in a loss of connectivity.
Meanings
The act of transferring the control, responsibility, or possession of something from one person or organization to another.
