Abstract

A plurality of subscriber stations and a plurality of switching points are connected in series in a loop circuit transmitting signals in one direction, parallel line sections disposed in parallel with the loop circuit are each connected with two switching points and each switching point contains a switch controlled by a failure detector and adapted for switching between a loop circuit section and a parallel line section. The transmission direction of the parallel line sections corresponds to the direction of the loop circuit; an incoming parallel line section which by-passes one or two immediately preceding switching points and an out-going parallel line section which by-passes one or two immediately succeeding switching points are connected to each switching point.
