This paper presents a network which can be used for data fusion in the planned LHC (Large Hadron Collider) ATLAS experiment at CERN. The network named SWIPP (SWitched Interconnection of Parallel Processors), is built of 16 {times} 16 star switches and protocol engines connected by pairs of optical fibers. Each channel is designed to carry up to 1 Gbps in each direction. The paper will give a brief introduction to SWIPP principles and ASIC implementation. Some of the advantages offered by the network will be mentioned.
