Abstract
Apparatuses and methods for selective communication through a memory connector via switching circuitry. An apparatus includes a memory connector, a memory bus corresponding to a memory protocol, one or more communication buses corresponding to one or more communication protocols, and switching circuitry operably coupled between the memory connector and the memory bus and the one or more communication buses. The one or more communication protocols are different from the memory protocol. The switching circuitry is configured to selectively operably couple any one of the memory bus and the one or more communication buses to the memory connector to enable communication through the memory connector using any one of the memory protocol or the one or more communication protocols.
