SYSTEM FOR THE TRANSMISSION OF PLESIOCHRONOUS DIGITAL DATA STREAMS IN A VIRTUAL ETHERNET NETWORK

摘要

The invention relates to a system (10) for the transmission of plesichronous digital data streams in a data network. The transmission system comprises a source which transmits plesichronous digital data streams, a network comprising a plurality of interconnected switches, a master termination (2) which is connected to a port of said switches and receives the plesiochronous digital data streams inside said network, and a slave termination (6) which is connected to a port of said switches and receives the digital data from the master termination (2). The network is a virtual Ethernet network (3). The digital data is transmitted on the virtual network in the form of data frames which comprise a same network indicator.
