ABSTRACT:
A router (200) comprising a router controller (203) coupled to a packet-switched interface (202) and a circuit-switched timedivision multiplexed interface (204) allows framed packet-data to be conveyed through a circuit-switched system, Inbound address information (208) included with inbound framed packet-data (207) is used by the router controller to route inbound packets (209) to associated inbound time slots (211). Conversely, the router controller determines outbound address information (218) for outbound packets (216) based on identifications (214) of associated outbound time slots (213). Such a router can be incorporated into a communication system 700. Sites (701-702) that transceive framed packet-data are coupled to a circuit-switched digital cross-connect switch (705) via the routers. A system controller (706) controls the circuit-switched digital cross-connect switch such that the associated inbound time slots are broadcast to at least the associated outbound time slots.
