    摘要: Network access apparatus (48) includes a slave unit (30), including a plurality of subscriber ports (36) adapted to be linked to respective subscriber lines, and a multiplexer (34) for multiplexing among the ports. A master sub-system (50) is connected to at least one trunk line (23) of a first public network (22), in a location remote from the slave unit. The master sub-system includes a first master unit (54), adapted to communicate with the slave unit via an assigned link (40) through a second public network (28), so as to provide users of the subscriber lines with access to the first public network through the at least one trunk line. The master sub-system also includes a second master unit (56), coupled through the first master unit to communicate with the slave unit via the assigned link, so as to provide the users with access to the first public network through the at least one trunk line in the event of a failure associated with the first master unit.

    摘要: Network access apparatus (31) includes first and second master units (30,32), each having a physical interface to a packet-switched network. A plurality of slave units (34), each slave unit having one or more ports (28) to respective subscriber lines, are linked by a plurality of physical interface lines (38) in one or more daisy chains (36,37,39), in which the slave units are mutually connected in series by the physical interface lines therebetween. Each daisy chain includes at least a first slave unit connected by one of the physical interface lines to the first master unit and a last slave unit connected by another of the physical interface lines to the second master unit.
