VSC3140 Overview
The VSC3140 is a 144x144 asynchronous crosspoint switch, designed to carry broadband data streams. The fully non-blocking switch core is programmed through a multi-mode port interface that allows random access programming of each input/output port. Each data output can be programmed to connect to one of the 144 inputs.
