A subscriber of a deterministic Ethernet communication network using virtual links including a first receiver, a first transmitter, a first memory to record a configuration table relating to a set of virtual links that the subscriber can receive and/or retransmit. A processing unit is configured to implement at least one application, a reception function to receive data frames received by the first receiver, to accept the reception only of the frames corresponding to virtual links belonging to the set of virtual links and to transmit these frames to a sorting function to transmit the data frames received to the application and/or to a transmission function to dispatch the data frames received to the first transmitter while complying with Bandwidth Allocation Gap (BAG) constraints associated with the corresponding virtual links.

Onboard communication network of a vehicle and subscriber of such a communication network

An on-board telecommunication system, partitioned into a secure area and a non secure area, including at least a first telecommunication equipment unit in the secure area, a second telecommunication equipment unit in the non secure area, and a first one-way link from the first to the second equipment. The first equipment unit is configured to transmit data on the first link according to a first protocol. The system further includes a second link from the second to the first equipment unit, in accordance with a second protocol, the first two layers of which are distinct of those of the first protocol, the second equipment configured to transmit data on the second link as messages in accordance with the first protocol and encapsulated in frames in accordance with the second protocol.
