Abstract: A network switch includes at least one port processor and at least one switch element. The port processor has an SONET OC -x  interface (for TDM traffic), a UTOPIA interface (for ATM and packet traffic), and an interface to the switch element. In one embodiment, the port processor has a total I/O bandwidth equivalent to an OC-48, and the switch element has 12x12 ports for a total bandwidth of 30 Gbps. A typical switch includes multiple port processors and switch elements. A data frame of 9 rows by 1700 slots is used to transport ATM, TDM, and Packet data from a port processor through one or more switch elements to the same or another port processor. Each frame is transmitted in 125 microseconds; each row in 13.89 microseconds. Each slot includes a 4-bit tag plus a 4-bnyte payload. The slot bandwidth is 2.592 Mbps which is large enough to carry an E-1 signal with overhead. The 4-bit tag is a cross connect pointer which is set up when a TDM connection is provisioned. The last twenty slots of the frame are reserved for link overhead. Thus, the frame is capable of carrying the equivalent of 1,680 E-1 TDM signals. For ATM and packet data, a PDU (protocol data unit) of 16 slots is defined for a 64-byte payload. The PDUs are self-routed through the switch with a 28-bit routing tag which allows routing through seven switch stages using 4-bits per stage. Bandwidth is arbitrated among ATM and Packet connections while maintaining TDM timing.

Abstract: A method and system of communication capable of expediting a calibration process which requires a data bus, multiple user nodes connected to the data bus, and data frames for data transmission that each include a data field and/or a control field and a check sum field. One user has a high-precision clock generator, and the remaining users have a clock generator having a lower precision. The users having the lower precision clock generator calibrate the lower precision clock generator to a system clock signal of the data bus, taking into account information contained in received calibration messages already present on the data bus. Expedited calibration requires the system clock signal period to be set according to a series of measurements and uses any given messages transmitted via the data bus as calibration messages, thus conserving bandwidth on the data bus.
