Abstract
Reliability studies of a demonstrated asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switch with all-optical packet routing are presented. Calculations are based on available reliability data for commercial components. An additional inherent redundancy is shown to improve switch availability. Our calculation results further show that a proposed multiplane switch satisfies the general reliability requirement for switching systems.
