A multiplexer, or a mux, is a topology in which you can connect one input to multiple outputs or
one output to multiple inputs. Use this topology to connect a sequence of channels to a
common line. Refer to the NI Product Documentation Center for more
information about multiplexer topologies.
Note You can resize the SFP window to see
more channels.
Refer to the schematic below for an example of a switch module configured in a multiplexer topology.
Make a Multiplexer Connection
Click the end of the pole associated with the channel (left) you want to connect to the com channel (right). The NI-SWITCH SFP makes the appropriate connect/disconnect calls to the driver.
