ABSTRACT:
A system for selectively interconnecting a plurality of communication lines, each of which is adapted for transmitting communication signals, includes a plurality of port buses connected to the communication lines through a plurality of interface circuits and to a loop bus through a plurality of switching units. The loop bus forms a loop shape. The communication signals are supplied to the loop bus through one of the port buses and circulate as a loop bus signal along the loop bus. Each of switching units distributes the loop bus signals between the another one of the part buses and the loop bus. On the other one of the port buses, the loop bus signals are sent as the communication signals.
