ABSTRACT:
Dual detection paths containing speed recognition devices automatically determine the rate at which data is being transmitted on a multi-rate digital data communications network such as a token ring network. The multiple detection paths operate simultaneously with each detection path provided with a Phase Lock Loop (PLL) and a pattern recognition device. The PLL and its associated pattern recognition device are made to operate at one of the known ring speeds. The ring speed is determined by the detection path which is able to recognize a predetermined data pattern from the network.
