ABSTRACT:
A packet switching apparatus for simplifying and reducing the size of a packet switching circuit which is to perform at high speed. The packet switching apparatus is provided with a first packet switching unit for sorting a data packet from one of a plurality of input lines into one of a plurality of transfer lines. The packet switching apparatus is also provided with a second packet switching unit for sorting a data packet from a transfer line into one of a plurality of output lines of a respective output line group. A transfer line transfers a data packet at a line speed faster than a sum of the line speeds of the output lines included within the respective output line group.
