ABSTRACT:
An ATM telecommunications switch includes a plurality of parallel data switching planes and a parallel control plane, each plane having an equal number of input ports and output ports and a central switching unit to switch each input port to any output port. A single data stream is divided between a plurality of input ports and the data is concatenated from a plurality of output ports to reconstitute the data stream. A first rotator connects each input port cyclically to each timelslot of the central switching unit and a second rotator connects each timeslot of the central switching unit cyclically to each output port.
