Full service network using asynchronous transfer mode multiplexing

摘要: An arrangement for transporting digital broadband data output in Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) cell streams from a plurality of video information service providers (VIPs) to subscribers. A network is adapted receive ATM VIPs via optical fibers having predetermined capacity. receivers corresponding the cells active an edge device input ports capacity fibers. The grooms by rejecting unauthorized and idle that do not carry information, maps remaining lower than coupled receivers. mapped are assigned translated VPI/VCI identifers combined onto common signal paths transport fibers, thereby maximizing efficiency network. also enables subscribers set up fully interactive sessions with selected level 1 2 gateways between subscriber VIP.
