Control processor switchover for a telecommunications switch

摘要: First and second control processor cards (12, 14) are employed in conjunction with first switch fabric (16, 18) to interconnect Input/Output (24) a telecommunications (10). The provide portion of the functionality previously associated 18), such as exertion over allocation bandwidth within switch. also new functionality. In particular, each card can configure both 18). Redundant redundant that is less susceptible failure than switches only cards. Hence, be sustained without resulting failure. Timing functions may provided by separate timing module (20, 22).
