Abstract

Systems and methods for routing communication among a plurality of devices are described. In an example, a controller can detect a communication initiated from a first device to a target device among a second device and a third device. The controller can identify the second device as the target device. The controller can, in response to identifying the second device as the target device, activate a direct communication path between the first device and the second device to allow the first device to communicate with the second device using direct communication mode. The controller can, in response to identifying the second device as the target device, activate redriver path between the first device and the third device to allow the first device to communicate with the third device using redriver mode.
