Difference between braking/retarding options??

In my electrical bay I have three relays for braking/retarding.

Endurance Brake
ABS Retarder
Engine Brake.

I think I know the engine brake is the Jake but what are the others??

Thanks for any input.
  • Besides the service brakes which may be ABS controlled I'm guessing that Endurance is the E brake.

    There are 3 types of retarders:
    1. Tranny
    2. Engine
    3. Exhaust brake

    Jake is a brand, not a type of brake and they make different types.
