Abstract
A method and system for transmitting traffic having disparate rate components includes receiving a plurality of traffic streams. Each traffic stream includes a first component and a reduced rate second component associated with the first component. The first components of the traffic streams are segmented into successive cells. The second components of the traffic streams are distributed between a defined set of the cells for in-band transmission of the second components.
