Abstract:
A cell transmitting device for accommodating a terminal and multiplexing cells on a trunk line in a cell transmitting network for logically multiplexing fixed-length cells and making a communication, comprising:a bit accommodation pattern table for storing control information for providing bit accommodation patterns as to how data from a plurality of terminals are accommodated into the predetermined multiplexing unit data in bits; a bit multiplexing/demultiplexing device references said bit accommodation pattern table for controlling a multiplexing/demultiplexing process, multiplexes the data from each of the plurality of terminals into the predetermined multiplexing unit data and demultiplexes the data which is multiplexed into the predetermined multiplexing unit data and is addressed to each of the plurality of terminals, and transmitting the demultiplexed data to each of the plurality of terminals; and a cell conversion processing device for performing interconversion between the predetermined multiplexing unit data to be processed by said bit multiplexing/demultiplexing device and cells corresponding to a predetermined link.
