Switched network topology as shown in fig. 1, devices in a network include NC nodes, NT nodes, and FC switches. The NC node is used as a network controller to control data transmission among all nodes in the whole network, and the FC switch is used as a transfer device for data transmission among all nodes. The NC node can simultaneously operate data transmission among the plurality of NT nodes through concurrent message configuration, and the data transmission among the plurality of NT nodes can be carried out without blocking through the FC switch.
The bus type network topology is shown in fig. 2, and the devices in the network include an NC node, an NT node, and an optical splitter. The role of the NC node and the NT node in the network is the same as that of a switched network. The NC node and the NT node are connected through an optical splitter, and the NT nodes are combined into one path through the optical splitter to be communicated with the NC node. Each NT node needs to initiate communication in a time-sharing manner, so that the total communication bandwidth of the network is equal to one FC communication bandwidth.
From the above, the switch network is analyzed as follows:
because concurrent communication design of each node can be carried out, the utilization rate of the whole network bandwidth is high; because the network must be built and used FC switch, the design cost is high, and the equipment occupation volume is large.
The bus network is analyzed as follows:
because each NT node needs time-sharing communication, the whole communication bandwidth is limited and is only equivalent to one FC communication bandwidth; compared with the switch, the optical branching device has small volume and low cost, and is beneficial to reducing the network construction cost; since the optical fiber is attenuated after being split, the number of optical splitters is limited, and the scale of network expansion is limited.
If the network construction needs to hope to expand the number of network nodes with low cost and ensure the communication bandwidth as much as possible, the switching network and the bus network can not independently meet the requirements.
