Abstract
A device for regulating the throughput of virtual circuits carried by an asynchronous time-division multiplex transmission channel in which the incoming cells of an input asynchronous time-division multiplex channel (mtr) including a header containing a destination indicator which can be used as a virtual circuit identifier are routed to a cell memory (MT) comprising a . . . , MAn), each cell being stored in the virtual circuit buffer memory associated with the virtual circuit to which the cell belongs, and the outgoing cells of an output asynchronous time-division multiplex channel (mte) are read in the same virtual circuit buffer memories (MA1, MA2, . . . , MAn). Cells to be transmitted on the outgoing link are read from the buffer memories in an order such that the cells from the same virtual circuit buffer memory are spaced on average by at least an interval specifier to that virtual circuit.
