Abstract:
A compact router with redundancy includes embodiments having main and backup crosspoint switching devices wherein one of the switching devices is removable from a main circuit board via a quick disconnect means such as an electrical connector.

Claim (Index 1):
A signal routing device comprising:\n a compact router for routing digital video signals, the router having plural input ports and plural output ports; the router including a main crosspoint switch for interconnecting input and output ports during normal mode operations; the router including a backup crosspoint switch for interconnecting input and output ports during backup mode operations; a chassis and a main circuit board, the main crosspoint switch having a removable fixation to the main circuit board via a connector that facilitates removal and replacement of the main crosspoint switch; the router configured to maintain the backup crosspoint switch in a relatively thermally cold state as compared to the main crosspoint switch when the router is interconnecting input and output ports during the normal operating mode; in the relatively thermally cold state, the backup crosspoint switch i) inoperative to route video signals and ii) consuming power from an electric power source; the router configured to increase the supply of electric power to the backup crosspoint switch upon a main crosspoint switch malfunction; and, upon a main crosspoint switch malfunction, the router configured to substitute switching functions of the backup crosspoint switch for switching functions of the main crosspoint switch.
