See full text

A network of ATM routing switches transmits digital signal cells of a first type requiring integrity of transmission and a second type accepting some loss in transmission, each switch has buffer circuitry. a plurality of output ports each having a plurality of queues of cells awaiting output, each output port having control circuitry to provide in an output frame control bits indicating the type of cell, a path identifier and the existence of flow congestion at the routing switch which it outputting the frame, thereby inhibiting transmission of further frames to that location until a frame is received from that location indicating that the congestion is cleared.
