Abstract
A configuration for receiving transmission data at multiple rates where one rate is not necessarily a multiple of another is provided. A host board includes a receiving circuit, a cross point switch, and a switch control circuit. The receiving circuit includes a receiving unit configured to receive a first data signal transmitted at a first rate, and a second receiving unit configured to receive a second data signal transmitted at a second rate different from the first rate. The cross point switch includes input terminals and output terminals. The cross point switch is configured to define a path of signal between the input terminals and the output terminals to route an input data signal to at least one of the first receiving unit and the second receiving unit.
