ABSTRACT:
A broadband switching network for transmitting information by using a cell composed of an information field and a header, including a first network comprising an ATM ring having a plurality of access nodes for multiplexing and demultiplexing the cell and a ring shape transmission path for connecting the plurality of access nodes in a ring shape so as to transmit the cell, and at least one second network, wherein the first network being connected to at least one second network via one of the plurality of access nodes, each second network having a switching function for switching the cell.
