Abstract
A chaining arrangement between intermediate modules (14), particularly of the repeater type, servicing transceiver terminals (0) communicating via a common, digital, packet transmission link (LP), in a communications installation. Each module has an access monitoring signal input (acki) linked to the output of a first individual concentrator logical circuit (15), this circuit including 'p' inputs each capable of being linked to an access monitoring signal output (acko) of 'p' different modules. Each module has its access monitoring signal output linked to a scattering circuit (16) making it possible to simultaneously drive the access monitoring signal inputs of 'p' different modules.
