In this paper, we propose an extendible copy network in a large-scale ATM switch consisting of small switch modules implementable on a single VLSI chip or a single PCB. Considering multicasting switches consist of a copy network and a routing network, there exist broadcast and group translators (BGT) which assign the destination addresses into copied cells. The BGT table can be reduced by vertical partitioning method; copied cells are translated in adjacent BGTs and each BGT table has a single destination address per connection. In addition, the distribution network routes and copies incomming cells into several groups statically which are translated into consecutive BGTs. This guarantees the integrity of cell sequences. Connection-setup time as well as the BGT table size can be reduced significantly.
