Agile optical-core distributed packet switch

摘要: A self-configuring distributed switch has agile core modules connected by a plurality of channels to large capacity edge modules. module controller selects paths through an associated and reconfigures the in response dynamic changes data traffic loads. Switching latency is masked so that source need not disrupt transmission during reconfiguration. Surplus provided facilitate Connection release connection setup policies increase occupancy variance among space switches each further The reconfiguration functions are coordinated keep guard time minimized. advantage high capacity, load-adaptive, can be geographically serve geographical area.
