ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a local area network operating in the asynchronous transfer mode comprising a plurality of terminals (1 to 4) which are formed each by a station (5), a radio device (7) for transmitting data between the terminals (1 to 4) and a network interface (6) including a controller (8) at least provided for setting up a connection, and comprising a switch unit (9) for switching cells between radio device (7), station (5) and controller (8). To effect a fast data transmission, the terminals (1 to 4) are provided each for a direct data exchange with another terminal (1 to 4). One terminal (1 to 4) then executes management functions in the network and exchanges data by means of at least one virtual link between a local user and a user of another terminal (1 to 4).
