1. A method for data transmission, comprising:
- representing data using at least one pulse based on a Gaussian wave form, each of the at least one pulse having pulse characteristics determined from characteristics of an electrically conductive guided media and characteristics of non-pulse signals communicated over the electrically conductive guided media;
sending the at least one pulse over the electrically conductive guided media;
receiving the at least one pulse over the electrically conductive guided media;
recovering the data encoded in the at least one pulse after receiving the at least one pulse over the electrically conductive guided media;
storing individual bytes of the data recovered from said Gaussian wave form signals in selectable memory locations of a plurality of buffer memories, each buffer memory for storing a plurality of said bytes; and
adding header data to outputs of said buffer memories and forming a plurality of variable length packets, each packet comprising bytes from at least one Gaussian wave form channel from a plurality of said Gaussian wave form signals;
transmitting said plurality of packets in Gaussian wave form output signals to a device for switching packets of said output signals; and
wherein said selectable memory locations are assigned to at least one byte of data into at least one channel in a common switching system device.
