Abstract
An 8-channel switching node with routing function is designed in this paper using a high-performance digital cross-point switch. The throughput of the 8-channel routing node is 10 Gbit/s. Combined with time division multiplexing (TDM) technique, a high-speed optical interconnection network was designed. Using Optical Network Interface Cards (ONIC) and the designed routing node, a two-layer optical interconnection network with structure of ring and star topology is designed. Based on circuits cascading technique, the network can be expanded to meet the request of large scale data communication with low communication latency.
