FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: present invention relates to a data receiver/source for a hybrid network, including a network with line switching and a packet switching network. In order to eliminate logical division between applications in the data receiver/source, data transfer device and in the data end device, the applications of which are based on a network with communication line switching (PTSN, ISDN) and applications, which are based on a packet switching network (Internet), the data transfer device (DUG), meant for data transmission/reception, especially speech and data packets, in a network or from a network with communication line switching (LVN), which is associated with a universally used device (DVG) for automatic data processing and for transmitting/receiving data in a network or from a packet switching network (PVN), and with which is associated at least one data end device (DEG) for transmitting/receiving data in a network or from a network with communication line switching (LVN), contain control switching apparatus (USM), which are controlled such that, the data end device (DEG), which in the first mode is connected through the data transfer device (DUG) to the network with communication line switching (LVN), switch from the first operation mode to the second operation mode, in which the data end device (DEG) through the data transfer device (DUG) and the data processing device (DVG) are connected to the packet switching network (PVN), and vice versa.
EFFECT: provision for a new data receiver/source and an end device.
