CA 2250808

A multimedia switching apparatus is described for switching multimedia signals comprising audio and video signals received from a public telecommunications network (3) to distribute the multimedia signals automatically. The gateway (12) receives the multimedia signals and generates a separate audio and video signal output. The audio signal is switched by an audio switch (4) to a destination under the control of an automatic call distribution arrangement (6) to automatically control the switching of the audio signal. A separate video switch (13) is provided for switching the video signal to a destination logically associated with the destination of the audio signal. The video switch (13) is controlled by monitoring the events in the audio switch to control the switching of the video signal so that it is switched to the logically associated destination. The switching operations of the audio switch are copied by the video switch (13).

L'invention concerne un appareil de commutation multimédia qui sert à commuter des signaux multimédia comprenant des signaux audio et des signaux vidéo qui sont émis par un réseau public de télécommunications (3) de façon à répartir automatiquement lesdits signaux multimédia. La passerelle (12) reçoit lesdits signaux multimédia et génère un signal de sortie audio distinct du signal de sortie vidéo. Le signal audio est commuté par un commutateur audio (4) en direction d'une destination donnée, un dispositif (6) de répartition automatique d'appels commandant automatiquement la commutation du signal audio. Un commutateur vidéo (13) distinct commute le signal vidéo en direction d'une destination logiquement associée à la destination du signal audio. Le commutateur vidéo (13) est commandé grâce à la surveillance des événements se produisant dans le commutateur audio afin de commander la commutation du signal vidéo de sorte que ce dernier soit commuté vers la destination qui y est logiquement associée. Les opérations de commutation du commutateur audio sont copiées par le commutateur vidéo (13).
