ABSTRACT:
In general, a system and method for providing data packet flow control is disclosed. Generally, a switch is provided that contains a series of ports, an arbiter and a hub. The arbiter determines an outgoing port, wherein the outgoing port is one port for the series of ports, for transmission of a data packet received by the switch, determines whether the outgoing port is available to receive the received data packet, and regulates transmission of the received data packet to a destination end node. The hub provides a point-to-point connection between any two of the series of ports and the arbiter.
