ABSTRACT:
A system of a maximum of N units (A, B, C, D, . . .) distributed in a network (RE) operating by a predetermined protocol (SCSI) by which the length of any bus (SCSI.sub.1, SCSI.sub.2, SCSI.sub.3) assuring the connection of a plurality of units among one another has a given maximum value, characterized in that, since the distance between the units is greater than the maximum value, it includes a plurality of local partial buses (SCSI.sub.1 -SCSI.sub.3) that are connected to one another via bidirectional point-to-point links (LPP.sub.1, LPP.sub.2) and are managed by intermediate transmission devices (DIT.sub.1, DIT.sub.21, DIT.sub.23, DIT.sub.3), each of which is connected both to a partial bus and to a point-to-point link and intervenes in the phases of gaining control of the network on the part of any unit connected to any one of the partial buses.
