Abstract
Data such as STS, DS1, a LAN packet, etc. are converted into STS signals. The STS signals are classified into a signal which is switched by an STS switching module at an STS level, a signal which is switched by a VT switching module and an ATM switching module, and a signal which includes ATM cells. An operator presets whichever STS signal is transmitted to the VT switching module or the ATM switching module, by using a centralized control module, based on network knowledge.
