  • Networking apparatus and a method for networking
    Patent number: 9612992
    Abstract: This specification discloses a protocol agnostic networking apparatus and method of networking. The networking apparatus receives physical layer signal through a plurality of communications ports that interface with external computing systems. A dynamic routing module interconnects the communications ports with discrete reconfigurable data conduits. Each of the data conduits defines a transmission pathway between predetermined communications ports. A management module maintains the data conduits based on routing commands received from an external computing system. The management module interfaces with the dynamic routing module to make and/or break data conduits responsive to received routing commands.
