Abstract

Telecommunication system for bidirectional transmission of data and voice signals with a data network ( 2 ), which is connected via a satellite data transmission link ( 6, 5, 8 ) for bidirectional data signal transmission to at least one satellite device ( 7 ), which is connected to a 10 Base S switching device ( 14 ); a telephone network ( 25 ), which is connected via a number of subscriber telephone lines ( 23 ) for bidirectional voice signal transmission to the 10 Base S switching device ( 14 ); and with a number of 10 Base S subscriber modems ( 18 ), which are connected for bidirectional voice and data signal transmission to the 10 Base S switching device ( 14 ).

Claims (16)

1. Telecommunication system for bidirectional transmission of data and voice signals to at least one customer building, the system comprising:

a) a data network, which is connected via a satellite data transmission link for bidirectional data signal transmission to at least one local satellite device, provided in at least one customer building, the local satellite device being connected to a 10 Base S switching device via a local broadband data network cable;

b) a public telephone network, which is connected via a number of subscriber telephone lines for bidirectional voice signal transmission to the 10 Base S switching device; and

c) a number of 10 Base S subscriber modems, which are connected via local telephone lines for bidirectional voice and data signal transmission to the 10 Base S switching device;

d) wherein the data transmission link has at least one satellite as a relay station for relaying data between the at least one local satellite device and a central satellite device connected via a gateway to the data network;

e) wherein downstream data is transmitted from the local satellite device via the local broadband data network cable and the 10 Base S switching device to the 10 Base S subscriber modems over the local telephone lines in a first freguency band;

f) wherein upstream data is transmitted from the 10 Base S subscriber modems over the local telephone lines in a second frequency band to the 10 Base S switching device and via the local broadband data network cable to the local satellite device; and

g) wherein the voice signals are transmitted over the local telephone lines in a third freguency band.

2. Telecommunication system according to claim 1 , wherein a data terminal for the data processing of the transmitted data signals and a telephone terminal for the transmitted voice signal can be connected to each 10 Base S subscriber modem.

3. Telecommunication system according to claim 1 , wherein the satellite device has an outdoor satellite unit and indoor satellite unit.

4. Telecommunication system according to claim 3 , wherein the outdoor satellite unit has a satellite antenna and a satellite signal transceiver.

5. Telecommunication system according to claim 4 , wherein the outdoor satellite unit has a mechanism for pointing the satellite antenna.

6. Telecommunication system according to claim 3 , wherein the indoor satellite unit has a network interface for a local data network.

7. Telecommunication system according to claim 6 , wherein the local data network is an Ethernet data network.

8. Telecommunication system according to claim 7 , wherein the local data network is connected to the 10 Base S switching device.

9. Telecommunication system according to claim 1 , wherein the telephone lines are two-wire telephone lines.
