Construction of a 64-Node HS-Link and Switch Testbed

Results from large 100MBaud DS-Link switching networks have been previously presented and have demonstrated scalable performance for network of up to 1024 terminal nodes [7]. As part of the ARCHES project a 64 node 1 GBaud HS-Link testbed is being constructed.
