Abstract

For transporting data packets of a data stream between a packet-oriented network (LAN) and a channel-oriented data stream processing module (VMOD), a data stream controller (ST) is provided which, via a data channel allocation module (VMUX), accesses an interface module (PS) for exchanging the data packets with the network (LAN) and/or accesses the data stream processing module (VMOD). The data stream controller (ST) transmits a data channel allocation information item (DKl1, DKl2) to the interface module (PS) and/or to the data stream processing module (VMOD). Using a data channel allocation information item (DKl1, DKl2) in each case transmitted, the data packets are transmitted directly between the interface module (PS) and the data stream processing module (VMOD), bypassing the data channel allocation module (VMUX).
