ABSTRACT:
The method of growth of the digital switchblock is for use in telecommunications. The switchblock comprises a plurality of superplanes each including a plurality of central digital switching modules interconnected to a plurality of demultiplexer-mixer-remultiplexer stages; and, a plurality of outer digital switching modules connected to the demultiplexer-mixer-remultiplexer stages on each side of the superplanes. The outer digital switching modules are increased linearly as the number of telecommunication lines is increased from a first order of telecommunication lines. The number of superplanes is increased linearly as the number of telecommunication lines increase from the first order of telecommunication lines to a second order of telecommunication lines and thereafter remain constant as the number of lines increase. The central digital switching modules are increased thereafter in accordance with a square law growth characteristic when the number of lines is increased from the second order of telecommunication lines.
