Abstract
We report on the construction of a 1024 node switching network using I EEE 1355 DS link technology. The nodes are interconnected by a switchi ng fabric based on the STC104 packet switch. The system has been desig ned and constructed in a modular way in order to allow a variety of di fferent network topologies to be investigated. Network throughput and latency have been studied for different topologies under various traff ic conditions including those expected within the second level trigger of the ATLAS experiment. Initial experience using 1 Gbaud IEEE 1355 H S links and switches is also presented.
