The present invention provides an all-optical switching system and the method thereof. The system comprises: N 1xM splitters for receiving N sets of optical data I1, I2, . . . , IN wherein said N splitters individually split said N sets of optical data separately to form a NxM matrix of optical data, wherein N and M are integers ; a NxM matrix switching structure for receiving the NxM matrix of optical data generated by the N splitters and another driving signal matrix to generate NxM matrix of optical data; and M Nx1 combiners for receiving the NxM matrix of optical data from the NxM matrix switching structure to combine them into M sets of optical data O1, O2, . . . , OM-1, OM, respectively.
