Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9605558A1] A network switch (19) having minimal latency is provided, which includes a storage buffer 26), fixed delay input means (36, 23, 24) for transferring input data from a plurality of input channels (10) to the storage buffer and fixed delay output means (38, 25, 24) for transferring output data from the storage buffer to a plurality of output channels (10). The switch (19) also has means for associating, within the storage buffer (26), input data from one input channel with at least one output channel thereby converting the input data to output data. The network switch is connectable to a plurality of channels, each of which operates as an input and an output channel.
