Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2771572A1] The exchange allows dispersal of cells into multiple channels for optimum data transfer efficiency. The exchange include internal switching elements (2), arranged in a network between input modules (3i) and output modules (4i). Between each given input module (3i) and a given output module (4i) there are a number of different transmission channels (a1, a2, a3,...). Between these modules a number (N1) of connections (C1 .. CN1) are established (N1 = 100 for example). For efficient management of the capacity of the exchange, the different transmission channels are seen as one resource. The data cells are dispersed according to a predetermined procedure at entry, and re-ordered when the reach their destinations following a second procedure. This is achieved by memorizing the cells in holding files dedicated to each transmission channel until the cells are output, and purging the memory of cells which have been held the longest time.
