Abstract
The Datran system is a nationwide all digital switched network which will initially link subscriber terminals in 35 metropolitan areas. It will consist of three distinct elements: a nationwide high-capacity microwave trunking system, computer controlled switching center and local distribution systems especially configured for each of the 35 metropolitan areas. Together these elements will result in an end-to-end network which avoids reliance on existing analog facilities.
