Abstract :
A digital telecommunication network, TELBANK, developed and operated by a consortium of Polish banks is described. Four TELBANK subnetworks, i.e., TELBANK-M, TELBANK-T, TELBANK-P, and TELBANK-VSAT are presented. TELBANK-M is a subnetwork offering long-distance transmission channels. TELBANK-P and TELBANK-T are packet-switched and circuit-switched subnetworks, respectively. TELBANK-VSAT is a satellite communication network. Three examples of TELBANK use for connections to external services are also presented
