Vermittlungsstelle zum Schalten von Verbindungen und ein zugehöriges Verfahren

摘要

The invention relates to an exchange (12) and a method for controlling an exchange (12) for establishing connections. Said exchange (12) is connected to at least one separately arranged connection unit (14) to which n connection groups (40a, 40b) are connected. The connection between the separately arranged connection unit (14) and the exchange (12) is established by means of transmission interface units (16, 18) of the separately arranged connection unit (14) and the exchange (12). The connection between the transmission interface unit (18) of the exchange (12) and the coupling network (32) of the exchange (12) is established by means of x useful data channels, the sum of the transmission capacities of said x useful data channels being smaller than the sum of the transmission capacities of the useful data channels of all n connection groups (40a, 40b).
