<p>One aspect of the invention multiplexes (320) time sensitive TDM (315) and other synchronous data (310), and asynchronous data (305) traffic onto a communication channel (201) in a manner that minimizes jitter in the delivery of the TDM data traffic while efficiently transporting asynchronous data traffic. Another aspect of the invention provides dynamic bandwidth sharing on a communication ring. The dynamic bandwidth sharing facilitates the efficient utilization of bandwidth of communication rings, particularly in those rings that cover large geographic areas.</p> |
