Abstract
The invention provides a subscriber terminating equipment wherein a subscriber accommodated in a subscriber terminating package with which a fault occurs is switched to a relief package by constructing the same such that a common section selects a pair of subscriber terminating packages including a first subscriber terminating package and a second subscriber terminating package and allocates, if the first subscriber terminating package fails, the second subscriber terminating package as a bypass package for performing electric connection between a subscriber terminal and the relief package. The subscriber terminating equipment thus allows automatic switching of the relief package without using a switching package for exclusive use and allows replacement of the fault package without interrupting communication of a subscriber accommodated in the fault package.
