Subscriber terminating equipment

摘要

The invention provides a subscriber terminating equipment (30) wherein a subscriber accommodated in a subscriber terminating package (LT#i) with which a fault occurs is switched to a relief package (LT#RS) by constructing the same such that a common section (31) selects a pair of subscriber terminating packages (LT#1, LT#2) including a first subscriber terminating package (LT#1) and a second subscriber terminating package (LT#2) and allocates, if the first subscriber terminating package (LT#1) fails, the second subscriber terminating package (LT#2) as a bypass package (LT#i) for performing electric connection between a subscriber terminal (1-1-1) and the relief package (LT#RS). The subscriber terminating equipment (30) thus allows automatic switching of the relief package (LT#RS) without using a switching package for exclusive use and allows replacement of the fault package (LT#i) without interrupting communication of a subscriber accommodated in the fault package (LT#i). <IMAGE>
