MULTI - PATH AND SELF - DELAY SWITCHING NETWORK FOR SWITCHING ASYNCHRONOUS TEMPERATURE MULTIPLEX CELLS.

摘要

P Self-routing and multipath switching network for asynchronous time-division multiplex cell switching comprising input ports (pi1, pi64 ...), output ports (po1, po64 ...), switches (TSi1, TSi16 ...) arranged in several stages of interconnected switches, each switch having inputs and outputs and being arranged to transfer a cell received on one of its inputs, on one or more of its outputs, according to routing data associated with said cell. BR/ Each elementary switch of at least one stage of the network has at least three outputs, arranged in groups of outputs of one or more determined outputs. Based on routing data associated with a cell received on any of its inputs, the switch (TSi1, TSi16 ...) is arranged to identify a set of one or more of said output groups and to transfer said received cell, on an output of each group of outputs of the selected set. / P
