| 摘要 |
A device (CP) to generate a number of multicast packets derived from a original packet applied at an input (Il/m) of a telecommunication system. The device has a device input,(I) coupled to an input (Il/m) of the system and a device output (IN) connected to a single inlet (INl/m) of a packet switching network (SN) also belonging to the system and coupled to outputs thereof. All the multicast packets are transmitted in series via the single device output (IN) so that only the corresponding single inlet (INl/m) of the switching network (SN) is used for performing point-to-multipoint or multicast connections independently of the number of multicast packets to be derived from each original packet.
