This paper focuses on designing a large N X N high-performance Fast Packet switch suitable for mixed ATM and IP traffic. It is a Banyan network using cyclic interconnection among switching elements of the same stage. We employ deflection-routing algorithm in each switching element. The proposed routing is as simple as that of the generic Banyan network, and all the switching elements (SE’s) have a uniform structure. To design the proposed network and to develop its self-routing property we observe that all the SE’s of the Banyan network are arranged in a regular pattern topologically. We, thus, present a growable switch architecture based on the topological properties of Banyan Networks. As a result, we show that the new network has a far better performance than the other networks.
