摘要 |
The basic idea underlying the present invention is to operate a data communications device serving as a data traffic interface, such as a packet control unit or packet server, e.g. originally used according to PDH such that components thereof, e.g. boards, having a lower performance, e.g. data rate, are cooperatively operated to support a desired higher performance. In particular, higher load due to the higher performance to be achieved are distributed to components which are not capable to support the higher load by its own. In detail, the present invention teaches to operate boards of such a data traffic interface device as a chain of boards, wherein boards of the chain share data traffic processing load required for a desired higher data traffic performance. <IMAGE>
