PROCEDIMIENTO PARA LA TRANSMISION DE DATOS E INSTALAACION DE CONMUTACION PARA LA REALIZACION DEL PROCEDIMIENTO.

摘要

Data is transmitted over at least part of its path, through a packet network. A control signal may be given by the network management system. This causes separate switching units (4a, 4b) to bypass the data around the packet communications network (6) and the packet equipment (5, 7). The signals are relayed over a line communication network (9). The connection between communication units (1a, 1b; 10a, 10b) is not interrupted. An Independent claim is included for the corresponding switching equipment.
