Abstract
A central-office termination apparatus includes plural termination devices and a termination device distributor. Each termination device includes a buffer, a subscriber-terminal terminator distributor and a scheduler. The buffer has a through queue and one or more switching queues. The subscriber-terminal terminator distributor transfers a packet meant for one subscriber-terminal terminator under switching to the switching queue, and transfers another packet meant for another subscriber-terminal terminator not under switching to the through queue. The scheduler reads out packets from the switching and through queues. The termination device distributor transfers a received packet to a termination device having the subscriber-terminal terminator registered for which that packet is meant.
