The Multiplexer Topology
A multiplexer, or a mux, is a topology in which you can connect one input to multiple outputs or one output to multiple inputs. Use this topology to connect a sequence of channels to a common line. Refer to the NI Switches Help for more information about multiplexer topologies.
