Abstract
The present disclosure provides a switch fabric system, the system including M first crossbar units (CUs) and N second CUs, where each first CU includes L first input ports, a first arbiter, a first crossbar, and N first output ports. Each second CU includes M second input ports, a second arbiter, a second crossbar, and one second output port. M×N first output ports of the M first CUs are respectively coupled to N×M second input ports of the N second CUs, where N first output ports of each first CU are respectively coupled to and in a one-to-one correspondence with one second input port of each second CU in the N second CUs. In the example system, N equals M×L, and M, N, and L are all positive integers.
