AFTN Message Switching System for Cyprus

Page history last edited by Ian Gillis 6 years, 2 months ago Saved with comment

Introduction

The Cyprus Message Switching System was developed for the Cyprus Telecommunications Authority (CyTA) in the late 1960s and went live in 1970. It provided store and forward message handling and routing facilities for both the Aeronautical Fixed Telecommunication Network (AFTN) and the public telegram network in Cyprus. It replaced the manual torn tape systems that were then in use.
