A non-blocking switch fabric with data synchronization of ports coupled thereto includes a switching matrix and a plurality of ports coupled to the switching matrix. Each port has an incoming queue, an outgoing queue, a module for generating a sync packet coupled to the outgoing queue and a module for forwarding or responding to the sync packet coupled to the incoming and outgoing queues in dependence upon destination information carried within a sync packet. In a particular embodiment, the switching fabric is an enhance OCN switching fabric having a n 88 bit width.
