PCT No. PCT/EP95/01426 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 7, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 7, 1997 PCT Filed Apr. 15, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/33563 PCT Pub. Date Oct. 24, 1996A modular approach to the mapping of data in and from a standard SDH/SONET signal is described. A module has interfaces (T0-T8) which allows to connect to it to other of its kind and thereby achieving higher data rates, i.e. access to standard signals of higher levels. By choosing among different interconnection schemes, arrangements comprising a plurality of modules are also able to support concatenated data traffic.
