ABSTRACT:
A cell exchange apparatus wherein cell input ports and cell output ports are divided into a plurality of groups and input cells are multiplexed for each group. Multiplexed cells are selected in accordance with their addresses with respect to output port groups and buffered by use of a plurality of buffers. Writing and reading of cells with respect to the buffers are controlled by a memory controller in accordance with the load on each buffer.
