ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for digital multiplexing onto a common highway a plurality of analogue input signals which are physically spaced apart over a distance. m time division multiplexing units 5a each have for each of n separate analogue signals n single channel pulse coding means 6 the outputs of which are time division multiplexed at a common outlet 12. Each multiplexing unit 5a also has a timing circuit 7 which can be either free running or locked to the similar timing circuit of a succeeding unit (5b). Each unit has (m-1) bypass connections 15, 16, 17 so that the multiplexed outlets of succeeding units are fed in parallel to a group multiplexer. The timing circuits, being cascaded, ensure that propagation delays for the digital signals from each of the n analogue inputs are obviated.
