FLEXIBLE MULTIPLEXER

摘要

A flexible multiplexer enables a liberal grouping and distribution of time sections of digital multiplex signals on dedicated lines with increasing numbers of line units on the subscriber side and the line side. The accommodation of the numerous voice/data and identifier multiplex signal lines between the line units thereby causes increasing numbers of problems. A reduction of the multiplex signal lines occurs when all channel units in the line units of the subscriber side and all line units of the line side are no longer connected to each multiplex line, but groups of line units of the subscriber side and all line units of the line side are each respectively connected via an incoming and an outgoing voice/data multiplex signal line to a voice/data switching matrix network and are connected via an incoming and an outgoing identifier multiplex signal line to an identifier switching matrix network. Such a flexible multiplexer enables connections between line units of the subscriber side, enables a grouping and separating of multiplex signals between line units of the subscriber side and of the line side and also enables a channel distribution between line units of the line side.
