Composite functional transmission line
First Claim
1. A composite functional transmission line, used as a medium for transmitting data between a plurality of electronic devices, and coupled to the electronic devices directly for transmitting the data bi-directionally, and the composite functional transmission line comprising:
- a substrate;
a plurality of transmission units, each having two electrical connection terminals, and electrically coupled to the substrate through one of the two electrical connection terminals, and the transmission unit being coupled to one of the electronic devices through the other one of the two electrical connection terminals, and the transmission units being provided for extending one of a plurality of transmission ports to the exterior of the substrate;
an extension unit, installed onto the substrate, and coupled to the transmission unit through the substrate, and provided for performing a bi-directional data transmission with at least one of the transmission units;
a switching unit, installed onto the substrate and coupled to the transmission units and the extension unit, and the switching unit comprises a plurality of transmission ports and a connecting path formed between the transmission ports, such that the data can be transmitted between the transmission ports bi-directionally according to the connecting path;
a control unit, coupled to the switching unit and provided for generating a control signal to determine the connecting path between the transmission ports of the switching unit, wherein the control unit generates the control signal automatically according to a connecting status of the transmission units with the extension unit to control the switching unit to switch the connecting path between the transmission ports; and
a route switching table, stored in the control unit, and when the connecting statuses of the transmission units and the extension unit occur simultaneously, the control unit switches the connecting path between the transmission ports according to the route switching table.
