ABSTRACT:
A system of modules is provided in which each module has a set of n connectors which are spatially invariant as the module is rotated in steps of 360
degrees about a module axis. The connectors are configured for axial engagement and a switching one of the modules includes a switch that can connect any one of its connectors with any other of its connectors. The modules are coaxially arranged with respective connectors of adjacent modules engaged. This arrangement is spatially compact and any one of the modules can be selectively connected to any other. In other embodiments, the modules have polygon-shaped perimeters and the connectors are configured for axial and radial engagement. These modules can be arranged both in vertical stacking and planar tiling relationships.
