Abstract :
This paper presents architecture of the PTN-OTN integrated switch fabric module which supports 3.2 terabit switching capabilities in optical-circuit-packet converged transport network systems. The switch fabric module supports not only PTN-OTN converged switching function between integrated line cards that support PTN and OTN traffics, but also provides system timing synchronization function to each line cards and mate switch fabric cards.
