Arrangement for connecting a computer to a telecommunications network, and a method for bit rate adaptation in this arrangement

摘要

A method for performing a bit rate adaptation of a data channel that exchanges information between two units operating at different transmission rates. A data stream is divided into at least one data set that is specified by a word length of an arithmetic and logic unit, so that information can be extracted from the at least one data set. The extracted information is then transferred to, for example, a computer or a data network.
