PCT No. PCT/DE93/00008 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 14, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 14, 1994 PCT Filed Jan. 11, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/14582 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 22, 1993In this method for switching through digital signals (DS) of the synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) or of the plesiochronous digital hierarchy (PDH), the digital signals are inserted into cross-connect base pulse frames (PR1). Said pulse frame comprises 9 lines (Z) and 100 columns (S). The through-connect data words transmitted each comprise 9 bits and are composed of 8 bits of meaningful information and one bit of additional information. Higher-order pulse frames (PRN) can be formed by interlacing a plurality of cross-connect base pulse frames (PR1).
