Abstract
A subcarrier multiplexed multiple-access optical fibre ring network is described which uses medium-speed digital circuits and subcarrier multiplexed data channels to achieve multigigabit per second throughput. A separate ´token-passing´ control channel provides collision-free access to the data channels.
