ABSTRACT:
A data receiving device, for receiving data from an ATM network, has a data storage circuit (38) for allocating preselected virtual channels of the network with respect to corresponding storage regions (5r) in a local memory (5) connected with the device. The storage regions are in the form of linked lists. When data items belonging to the different preselected virtual channels are received in succession by the device, the data storage circuit (38) stores those items in the storage regions that correspond respectively to the items' virtual channels. As a result, transfer of the received data items from the local memory (5) to a further connected apparatus (7) connected with the device, is performed in a different channel order form that in which those items were received by the device from the network. The latter transfer may be performed by the connected further apparatus or by a data transfer circuit (40) of the device.
