Translational switching system and signal distribution system employing same
First Claim
1. A translational switch system, comprising:
- a first translational switch having one or more inputs configured to receive a respective one or more first input signals, a first plurality of outputs, and a second plurality of outputs, the first translational switch configured to switchably output a first frequency version of the first input signal to any of the first plurality of outputs, and to switchably output a second frequency version of the first input signal to any of the second plurality of outputs;
a second translational switch having one or more inputs configured to receive a respective one or more second input signals, a first output, and a second output, the second translational switch configured to switchably output a first frequency version of the second input signal to the first output, and to switchably output a second frequency version of the second input signal to the second output; and
a signal bus coupled between the first and second translational switch, the signal bus having a first bus line coupled to a first one of the first plurality of outputs of the first translational switch, and to the first output of the second translational switch and a second bus line coupled to a first one of the second plurality of outputs of the first translational switch, and to the second output of the second translational switch.

Abstract
A translational switch system includes first and second translational switches, and a signal bus coupled therebetween. The first translational switch includes one or more inputs configured to receive a respective one or more first input signals, a first plurality of outputs, and a second plurality of outputs. The second translational switch includes one or more inputs configured to receive a respective one or more second input signals, a first output, and a second output. The signal bus, coupled between the first and second translational switches, includes (i) a first bus line coupled to a first one of the first plurality of outputs of the first translational switch, and to the first output of the second translational switch, and (ii) a second bus line coupled to a first one of the second plurality of outputs of the first translational switch, and to the second output of the second translational switch.
