0 a piece of electronic equipment that can send more than one electrical signal using only one connection: --
Capacity of a given link can be expanded simply by upgrading the multiplexers and demultiplexers at each end.
These aggregated circuits are conveyed from the initial multiplexer to the exchange over a set of equipment collectively known as the access network.
In the design of digital multiplex hierarchies, care must be exercised to ensure interoperability of the multiplexers used in the hierarchy.
The device that accomplishes this is called a statistical multiplexer.
The word mux is an abbreviation of the word multiplexer, which is a communications switching device.
Optical multiplexers (couplers) makes different wavelength coupling into an optical fiber and different wavelength carries different information.
There is the risk with this modern machinery that the multiplexer could go wrong between the modulator-demodulator and the data bank, and the information could go into the circuit.
The public response to digital is not known, nor is the take-up of the multiplexers.
