ABSTRACT:
A router is provided that includes a plurality of lanes to receive inbound data from a plurality of different input ports. The router may further include a shared crossbar channel coupled to each of the lanes and to a plurality of output ports, the crossbar channel to receive inbound data from the plurality of lanes and to provide outbound data to the plurality of output ports. Each lane may include a local lane arbiter, a global lane arbiter and a port arbiter associated with each port.
