<p>The invention relates to a method for transmitting control information over an HDSL transmission link. The HDSL transmission link (36) is connected to an SDH network, whereupon according to the invention (a) data from the SDH network to the HDSL link is mapped into the frame structure according to the HDSL system, and (b) pointers required by the SDH network are generated in the data frames passing from the HDSL link to the SDH network, the pointers indicating the phase of the payload within the frame structure. In order to provide a transparent control channel to control, from the SDH network, the part of the telecommunications network situated beyond the HDSL link, the control channel is formed of the pointer bytes V4 of the TU-12 frames to be transmitted over the HDSL link. <IMAGE></p> |
