摘要 |
The invention relates to a system for asynchronously switching cells, each cell comprising a header field and a data field. At least some of the input modules comprise composite cell forming means, serving in particular to enable channel data blocks to be constructed each comprising a channel data to be transmitted indication extracted from the channel data received and at least one synchronous channel identifier associated with said channel data to be transmitted indication, and means for selectively multiplexing channel data blocks intended for a common destination, in the data field of at least one composite cell. At least some of said output modules comprise means for processing said composite cells, comprising means for extracting and recognizing said received channel data blocks by means of said associated synchronous channel identifiers, and means for transmitting to at least one outgoing link the channel data belonging to the various channels. |
