This device inserts stuffing bits at regular intervals into a digital train consisting of rows of bits originating from a first synchronous link (1) strobed by a first clock (HE), and which is to send on a second synchronous link (10) strobed by a second clock (HL). It includes: - a buffer memory (5); - a pointer (4) supplying a write address to the buffer memory; - a pointer (6) supplying a read address to the buffer memory; - means (12, 13) for calculating the filling value ( DELTA P) of the buffer memory (5); - means (14, 15) for comparing this value ( DELTA P) with a first and with a second threshold value (NF, NE), and for producing a stuffing control signal (JP, JN); - means (11) for determining the first and the second threshold value (NF, NE) on the basis of the phase shift between the header of a row originating from the first link (1) and the header of a row sent at the same instant on the second link (10). Application to gateways at the input, and to telecommunications networks using the synchronous digital hierarchy. <IMAGE> |
