Abstract
A system (10) is provided for mapping a data cell (32) in a communication switch. The system (10) includes a virtual translation table (40) having at least one virtual path translation table queue entry (92) and at least one virtual channel translation table queue entry (90). A to-switch port processor (12), which can access the virtual translation table (40), has at least one link (16-30) which receives the data cell (32). The to-switch port processor (12) maps the received data cell (32) to a queue descriptor using the virtual translation table (40).
