• Large Routers:<br />

– Require large, fast, non-blocking switch fabric<br />

– Traditional approaches (electronic crossbar, shared<br />

memory) have not scaled very well past 300 Gb/s<br />

– Per-trace b<strong>and</strong>width, Memory b<strong>and</strong>width<br />

limitations<br />

– Distributed Switches are being tried<br />

– Concerns about fault tolerance, rerouting, delay,<br />

reconfiguration difficulty<br />

– New approaches<br />

– High-speed signal I/O (3.125 10 Gb/s per pin)<br />

– All-optical Fabrics – need to switch fast<br />

– Difficult to schedule efficiently<br />

– Need massively parallel scheduling engine<br />
