The invention relates to a mobile network subscriber (10) for use in a cabled network (1), particularly in a collector wire network of an electric telpher, wherein the cabled network (1) has at least one first segment (S1) and at least one second segment (S2) and wherein the mobile network subscriber (10) has a first slave modem (SM1), a second slave modem (SM2), a first contact arrangement (K1) and a second contact arrangement (K2) in each case. In order to allow a change between two segments of a network in a simple and efficient manner, it is proposed that the slave modems (SM1, SM2) be provided for communication with at least one first master modem (MM1) and/or at least one second master modem (M2) via the contact arrangements (K1, K2) and the segments (S1, S2), wherein the mobile network subscriber (10) is provided for movement along the segments (S1, S2), the contact arrangements (K1, K2) of the mobile network subscriber (10) being arranged such that the change from the first segment (S1) to the second segment (S2) involves at least one of the contact arrangements (K1, K2) being connected to the first segment (S1) and at least one further contact arrangement (K1, K2) being connected to the second segment (S2).
A mobile network subscriber for use in a cabled network, wherein the cabled network has at least one first segment and at least one second segment, the mobile network subscriber comprising:
A method for changing a mobile network subscriber from a first segment into a second segment of a cabled network, the method comprising:
A segment arrangement for use with a mobile network subscriber, the mobile network subscriber comprising a first slave modem, a second slave modem,
A modem arrangement for use with a mobile network subscriber, the mobile network subscriber comprising a first slave modem, a second slave modem, a first contact arrangement, and a second contact arrangement, wherein the first slave modem and the second slave modem are configured for communicating with at least one first master modem, at least one second master modem, or the at least one first master modem and the at least one second master modem via the first contact arrangement and the second contact arrangement, and at least one first segment and at least one second, wherein the mobile network subscriber is configured for movement along the at least one first segment and the at least one second segment, and wherein the first contact arrangement and the second contact arrangement of the mobile network subscriber are arranged such that a change from the at least one first segment to the at least one second segment involves at least one contact arrangement of the first contact arrangement and the second contact arrangement being connected to the at least one first segment and at least one further contact arrangement being connected to the at least one second segment, the modem arrangement comprising:
