ABSTRACT:
An asynchronous transfer mode packet switch for use in a Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network is disclosed. The asynchronous transfer mode packet switch is highly modular and allows expansion of the switch to handle applications having less than eight input and output devices to applications having up to 2.sup.14 input and output devices. The preferred asynchronous transfer mode packet switch is constructed as either a single-stage switch for routing data packets between up to 2.sup.6 input and output devices, a two-stage switch for routing packets between up to 2.sup.10 input and output devices, or a three-stage switch for routing packets between up to 2.sup.14 input and output devices.
