A switching apparatus having a plurality of ports, includes: switch information storage to store an output port identifier for a combination of an input port identifier, an input virtual path identifier, and a destination address; a detector to detect a first input virtual path identifier and a first destination address assigned to an input packet; a searcher to search the switch information storage for a first output port identifier based on a first input port identifier that identifies a port to which the input packet has been input, the first input virtual path identifier, and the first destination address; and a packet switch to transfer the input packet to a port identified by the first output port identifier.

A frame concatenation apparatus includes a storage unit to store a plurality of frames to be transmitted, a generation unit to generate a concatenated frame including the plurality of frames read out from the storage unit and serially concatenated, and including frame length information on each frame attached thereto, and an attachment unit to attach information for establishing synchronization with a receiver of the concatenated frame, to the concatenated frame.

Frame concatenation apparatus

A communication system includes a first communication apparatus including one or more first processors that determine a first bandwidth variance for each flow, based on a requested bandwidth variance amount and a surplus bandwidth of a physical line, and a first transmitter that transmits the first bandwidth variance to an adjacent apparatus; and a second communication apparatus including one or more second processors that set the received first bandwidth variance as a requested bandwidth variance amount for the second communication apparatus and determine a second bandwidth variance for each flow from the first bandwidth variance and the surplus bandwidth, and a second transmitter that transmits the second bandwidth variance to an adjacent apparatus.

Communication system and communication apparatus

An apparatus for transmitting terrestrial digital data using a synchronous-optical-network system or a synchronous-digital-hierarchy system includes a synchronous-difference calculating unit that calculates a synchronous difference between a standard signal used in the synchronous-optical-network system or the synchronous-digital-hierarchy system and a first synchronous signal that synchronizes with a leading position included in image data of the terrestrial digital data; and a transmission processing unit that transmits the synchronous difference together with the terrestrial digital data to a destination.
