Abstract

A function of a switch apparatus is realized as an adapter. Signaling data which cannot be processed in the adapter, is output to a mainframe bus of a computer through an AAL controller, a RAM, and a bus controller. The computer processes the signaling data and sends it to a switch adapter through the mainframe bus. The signaling data is input to an 8.times.8 switch through the bus controller, the RAM, the AAL controller. Usual user information is switched by a PHY unit, a TC/ATM controller, an address converter, and the 8.times.8 switch. By connecting the switch adapter to the computer, it is possible for the computer to operate as a switch apparatus without damaging its function.
