ABSTRACT:
A multi-layer cross connect having high isolation between signal channels, the multi-layer cross connect comprising: (a) a multi-layer circuit board having a top and bottom orientation and comprising at least a bottom layer and one or more upper layers; (b) a plurality of microstrip launches along the perimeter of the bottom layer; (c) a plurality of striplines on the bottom layer, each stripline being connected to one and only one microstrip launch and comprising a transformer for lowering its impedance and thereby increasing its width, the striplines comprising first striplines and second striplines; (d) a plurality of transition vias, each transition via conductively coupling each of the second striplines to a stripline on an upper layer; and (e) a combiner on each layer for combining signals from multiple striplines to a common stripline.
