Abstract

L'invention porte sur une architecture de commutation dans laquelle un ensemble de n commutateurs de taille réduite (10) est interconnecté par une unité de commande de coeur (12) et un dispositif de brassage optique (16) pour constituer un commutateur de grande taille. Chaque commutateur de taille réduite possède un bloc d'émission (14) pourvu de n diodes laser (14a) connectées par un ruban de n fibres (15) au dispositif de brassage optique et un bloc détecteur (18) également connecté au dispositif de brassage optique. L'unité de commande de coeur ne sélectionne qu'une diode laser dans un commutateur de taille réduite, quel qu'il soit, afin d'émettre à tout moment.
