Abstract :
A broadband local area network system call is illustrated using the previously developed intelligent head-end. The head-end provides the advantages of dynamical channel exchange and network configuration control facility. The head-end exchanges analog information in a manner similar to the digital exchange. A novel LAN architecture is described, which is based on the open system interconnection for the broadband network, to which the digital/analog devices are connected. A prototype model experiment is presented
