Abstract
A Clos-based fault tolerant multicast ATM switch is proposed in which each stage has one more redundant switch module. If one switch module is faulty, the redundant module replaces the faulty module. On the other hand, even under fault-free conditions, the redundant modules in the second and third stages will provide additional alternative internal paths, and hence improve the performance
