Packet-switching networks -- networks which break data up into chunks called packets before transport -- help make your business communications stable and efficient. Once used only for data ...

Circuits as WAN connections battled successfully against packets for years because they guaranteed bandwidth, no matter what. If you bought a T-1 circuit, the service provider nailed up 1.5Mbps from ...

Packet switching is a network transmission method that sees data sent in small blocks called packets rather than as a continuous stream. Sending data in this way helps to improve the robustness and ...

The continuous upgrading to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) and technology enhancement over the years has helped the traditional circuit switch architecture to gain a reputation for being ...

SANTA BARBARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CALIENT Technologies, Inc., the global leader for Optical Circuit Switching technology, today announced two new optical circuit switch subsystems that allow ...

Integrated circuit technologies are enabling intelligent, chip-based, optical packet switch matrices. Rapid real-time re-configurability at the photonic layer using integrated circuit technologies is ...

Advances in Applied Probability, Vol. 18, No. 2 (Jun., 1986), pp. 473-505 (33 pages) This paper is concerned with blocking and loss probabilities in circuit-switched networks. We show that when the ...

SANTA BARBARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CALIENT Technologies, Inc., the global leader for optical switching technology, today announced the Edge|640™, a new Optical Circuit Switch (OCS) with 640 fiber ...

We develop a performance modeling methodology for product-form circuit-switched networks. These networks allow for: arbitrary topology and link capacities; Poisson and finite population arrivals; ...

Lumentum Holdings Inc. has introduced its R300 optical circuit switch (OCS) featuring a 300x300 port capability, which is currently being sampled by multiple hyperscale customers. The product, ...
