Abstract: A N×M non-blocking switch matrix, where N and M are integers, includes an input stage having a plurality of m/2-way multiport switches, where quotient m/2 is a positive integer less than M, and an output stage having a plurality of n/2-way multiport switches, where quotient n/2 is a positive integer less than N. The switch matrix further includes a transfer stage having a plurality of transfer switches operatively connected between the input stage and output stage, and selectively applying outputs of the m/2-way multiport switches to inputs of the n/2-way multiport switches such that any given input to the m/2-way multiport switches is connectable to any given output of the n/2-way multiport switches.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for equalizing high frequency video signals is disclosed. A video signal to be equalized is received at an input terminal of a network and an equalized video signal is provided from an output of an operational amplifier to an output terminal of the network. The equalized video signal is fedback to one input of the operational amplifier. The video signal to be equalized is coupled to another input of the operational amplifier and is also coupled to respective ones of a plurality of alterable circuit elements such as varactor diodes, which function to mitigate distortions to the frequency response characteristic of the video signal to be equalized by cancelling the effect thereon by the video signal to be equalized.
