A first circuit is provided on the circuit board and is electrically coupled to the connector, and a second circuit is provided on the circuit board and is also electrically coupled to the connector. If the first circuit card is received by the connector, a first signal path is provided from the first circuit to the second circuit via the first circuit card. If the second circuit card is received by the connector, a second signal path is provided from the second circuit card to the second circuit.
