Abstract
The invention performs a cell switching operation of switching cells of a connection being higher in transmission rate than an existing switch port by means of the existing switch. Namely, the invention bundles a plurality of input ports and a plurality of output ports respectively to make a high-speed input port and a high-speed output port, separates cells inputted through the high-speed input port so that they have an ordinary transmission rate, and multiplexes the cells to be outputted through the high-speed output port so that they have the transmission rate of the high-speed output port. Furthermore, the invention gives a cell a number indicating the order in which said cell has been inputted from each of the input ports including the high-speed input port and corrects the order of the cells outputted from the output buffers into the order in which they have been inputted, on the basis of the numbers added to the cells.
