An One-to-one broadcasting is an unisating :-)
Frame-Relay is a good example for Non-Broadcast Multiple Access (NBMA)
network.
It is tied to PVC and SVC concept that supports only point-to-point or
multipoint technique of connectivity.

Sometimes wrong term of "star topology" is used to name FR, the term
"hub-and-spoke" is more correct for these purposes.
