A method for providing high connectivity communications over a packet-switched optical ring network having a plurality of nodes connected thereto comprises the steps of creating, at one of the plurality of nodes, a composite packet, dropping a composite packet in a photonic time slot being for routing over the packet-switched optical ring network and destined for one of a plurality of nodes of the packet-switched optical ring network, adding to the photonic time slot the composite packet created by one of the plurality of nodes into the packet-switched optical ring network and routing the photonic time slot comprising the composite packet to a destination node. A system for providing high connectivity communications over a packet-switched optical ring network comprises a core optical ring having at least one node, the node being coupled to a subtending system by an optical crossbar switch, a device for forming a first composite packet formed by a set of packets generated in parallel by an array of lasers, the device coupled to the optical crossbar switch, the first composite packet being parallel packets in a single photonic time slot, the first composite packet to be added to the core optical ring in a vacant photonic time slot via the optical crossbar switch, a second composite packet propagating on the core optical ring destined to be dropped at the node for further distribution on the subtending system via the optical crossbar switch, an unstacker for serializing the second composite packet dropped at the node, the unstacker coupled to the optical crossbar switch and a detector for distributing the serialized packets to a further destination by the subtending system.
