Abstract
As the number of ATM broadband subscribers grows, the construction of an efficient access and tandem network will require very large ATM swi tches. The authors propose an architectural approach based on a concep t of satellite switches of moderate capacity, loosely coupled over ver y high-speed links through a cross-connect core.
