Abstract
The message cells of a virtual connection appear with a transmission bit rate that is higher in comparison to a transmission bit rate respectively defined for inputs (E1, . . . ,EP) and outputs (A1, . . . ,AP) of an ATM network. These message cells are depacketed. The message signals contained in successive message cells are thereby subdivided into signal sections. Upon attachment of a continuously changing signal section sequence number, these are respectively inserted into the information part of a message cell. The message cells are then transmitted via different transmission routes within the ATM network and are subsequently depacketed. Based on the measure of the signal section sequence numbers contained in these message cells, message signals in the original length are in turn formed from the individual signal sections, these message signals being inserted into message signals of the appertaining virtual connection for forwarding.
