Abstract
A communication network is operated by communicating Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) traffic and data (STATMUX) traffic over a single connection, where the single connection may include multiple aggregated lines using a traffic encapsulation standard configured to support STATMUX traffic.
Claims28
A method of operating a communication network, comprising:
- performing operations as follows on at least one processor:
- communicating Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) traffic on a single line using a Statistical Multiplexing (STATMUX) traffic encapsulation standard to encapsulate blocks of the TDM traffic.
A method of operating a communication network, comprising:
- performing operations as follows on at least one processor:
- distributing Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) traffic onto a plurality of lines asynchronously without copying the TDM traffic between the plurality of lines.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
