A switched telecommunications network includes different types of traffic, such as audio data, including voice data, fax and modem originated data, digital computer originated data and video data. A communications link connects a user's site to the network, and a bandwidth manager is provided to multiplex traffic of different types for transmission over the link. After transmission over the link, a complementary bandwidth manager is arranged to de-multiplex the traffic for application to the respective switch. The bandwidth manager is arranged to dynamically allocate bandwidth to the different types of traffic, thereby optimizing the available bandwidth provided by the communications link. |
