Abstract
Several rotator switch architectures are provided that enhance performance of a basic rotator switch. The rotator switches having double buffered tandem nodes, multiplexing two or more sources onto each tandem node, partitioning the rotator into two or more parallel space switches, two or more rotator planes multiplexing front/to source and destination nodes to provide data path redundancy, priority queueing on source nodes scheduled locally or globally, or redundancy in the schedulers are shown.
