    摘要: A switch card for telecommunications node includes a shared memory operable to store traffic channels. A time slot interchanger (TSI) is coupled to a first bus and to the shared memory. The TSI is operable based on predefined switching instructions to access the shared memory to stored traffic channels received from the first bus and to retrieve traffic channels for transmission on the first bus. An asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switch is operable to switch a traffic cell based on header information in the traffic cell. A traffic converter is operable to convert traffic channels retrieved from the shared memory to traffic cells for processing by a bus fuser and to convert traffic cells to traffic channels for storage in the shared memory. The bus fuser is coupled to the shared memory through the traffic converter, the ATM switch, and a second bus. The bus fuser is operable to receive a traffic cell from each one of the traffic converter, the ATM switch, and the second bus and to route the traffic cell to another one of the traffic converter, the ATM switch, and the second bus.

    摘要: A rate adjustable backplane includes a set of switch slots configured to receive one or more switch cards forming a switch core and a plurality of line slots each configured to receive a line card. A low speed bus couples the line slots to the set of switch slots. A high speed bus also couples the line slots to the set of switch slots. Each line slot includes a low speed connector coupled to the low speed bus and a high speed connector coupled to the high speed bus. The low speed connector is adapted to receive a mating connector of a line card to establish a low speed communication connection between the line card and the switch core. The high speed connector is adapted to receive a mating connector of the line card to establish a high speed link between the line card and the switch core.

    摘要: A method may include counting the number of times each of a plurality of entries in a content addressable memory (CAM) matches one or more searches; grouping entries in the CAM into a first subset and a second subset based on the number of times each of the plurality of entries in the CAM matches one or more searches; and searching the first subset for a matching entry and, if no matching entry is found, searching the second subset for the matching entry.
