Base element for a multiplexer structure and corresponding multiplexer structure

Base element according to any one of the above claims, characterized in that the signal distribution means include a first logic circuit (4), which connects the signal inputs (Ai, Bi, Ci, Di) of all connection points with the signal outputs (Ao, Co, Do) of those connection points, which do not correspond to the particular connection point.

Base element according to one of the above claims, characterized in that the signal distribution means include a second logic circuit (5), which connects the signal inputs (Ai, Ci, Di) of those connection points, which do not correspond to the particular connection point, with the signal output (Bo) of the particular connection point.

Multiplexer structure, with several base elements (2) and several transmission/receiving units (1) coupled to the base elements (2) for the exchange of data between one another via the base elements (2), whereby each base element (2) has several connection points in each case with a data input (Ai, Bi, Ci, Di) and a data output (Ao, Bo, Co, Do), whereby each base element (2) has data distribution means (4, 5) communicating with the individual data inputs and data outputs to pass on a data signal at a data input of a connection point to at least one of the data outputs, and whereby the data distribution means (4, 5) are embodied in such a way that for at least one particular connection point they prevent a data signal at the data input (Bi) of this particular connection point being passed on to the data output (Bo) of the same particular connection point and that for at least another connection point they pass on a signal at the signal input (Ai, Ci, Di) of this other connection point to the signal output (Ao, Co, Do) of the same other connection point.
