Multipoint/multichannel connection device in integrated services digital network

摘要

The invention supposes the use of an integrated services digital network (102) which has a function of communicating the number of a source communications terminal (101) as source number information. A source number information identifying section (104) in a central unit 103 identifies source number information from the integrated services digital network (102). Communications processing sections (105) in the central unit (103) process arriving channels for which source number information is recognized as being identical, as arriving channels from the same communications terminal. As a result, the central unit (103) identifies arriving channels from a plurality of communications terminals (101) individually and then processes them without communicating source number information with the communications terminals.
