A method for switching synchronous transfer mode cells in a circuit emulated ATM switch using a layered protocol model. Each cell is delivered to the circuit emulated ATM switch on a frame oriented basis and each such cell comprises a header and a payload. The header comprises fields storing details about the cell. The payload comprises time slots carrying user data. The ATM switch is provided with means for assigning a predetermined number of time slots to a cell that is transported on a physical medium. The cell, referred to as a PR-PDU-cell, can have any of a number of sizes ranging from (4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 56 and 60) octets. This reduces the packetizing time of a cell.

La présente invention concerne un procédé de commutation de cellules pour mode de transfert synchrone (STM) dans un commutateur émulé par circuit en mode de transfert asynchrone (ATM) selon un modèle de protocole en couches. Chaque cellule est remise en format trame au commutateur émulé en ATM par circuit, chaque cellule se composant d'un en-tête et d'une partie utile. L'en-tête se compose de zones de stockage de détails concernant la cellule. La partie utile se compose de tranches temporelles véhiculant les données utilisateur. Le commutateur ATM comprend des moyens permettant d'affecter, à une cellule devant être transportée par un support physique, un nombre prédéterminé de tranches temporelles. Ces cellules "PR-PDU", c'est à dire "cellules d'unité de données de protocole pour la couche d'acheminement physique", peuvent avoir des tailles de 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 56 et 60 octets. Ce procédé permet de réduire la durée de le temps de la constitution des paquets à partir des cellules.
