Bit rate reservation is effected by means of a reservation cell containing a requested bit rate transmitted from a calling terminal to a called terminal via switching nodes of an asynchronous network. At each node, a bit rate increase request is at least partially satisfied even if the difference between the requested bit rate and the current bit rate is greater than the bit rate available at the node. The node replaces the requested bit rate in the reservation cell by a new bit rate lower than the latter so that the called terminal receives the lower new adopted bit rate by the nodes. An acknowledgement cell retransmitted with this lower new bit rate by the called terminal renders uniform the adopted bit rate at all the nodes. If no acknowledgement cell has been received after a predetermined time-delay the nodes revert to their initial state, with the current bit rate preceding the bit rate reservation.
