ABSTRACT:
A transfer layer of an ATM type used between a switch (216) and a number N of communication channels (218). Each communication channel (218) has second storage arrangement B.sub.0, . . . , B.sub.N-1 for storing cell queues having a length of up to P cells each, one of the second storage arrangements being in a busy condition if a minimum number M of cells is stored therein, where M is lesser of equal P. Each communication channel is assigned to one of the switch queues. The transfer layer (217) has third storage arrangement T for storage of a cell queue having a length of up to L cells. Furthermore the transfer layer (217) selectively disables the input of a cell from one of the switch queues into the third storage arrangement if the second storage arrangement is in a busy condition.
