    7LJHU $XGLR 5RXWLQJ 6ZLWFKHU 0DWUL[ 6SDFH A three-dimensional mathematical model of the crosspoints in a switching system. The coordinates of crosspoints in matrix space are given in the form (input,output) on strobe x. When a switching system is physically made up of only one routing switcher, the crosspoint coordinates are the same as the input and output connector numbers, and the resulting matrix space has only two dimensions.
