A system includes a first bus segment and a second bus segment. The first bus segment is operatively coupled to one or more first bus agents, where the first bus agents are configured for writing messages to the first bus segment and reading messages from the first bus segment and the second bus segment, which is separate from the first bus segment, is operatively coupled to one or more second bus agents. The first bus agents are configured for writing messages to the first bus segment and reading messages from the first bus segment. The system also includes first electrical circuitry operably coupled to the first bus segment and the second bus segment and configured to read messages written on the first bus segment and to write the messages onto the second bus segment and second electrical circuitry operably coupled to the first bus segment and the second bus segment and configured to read messages written on the second bus segment and to write the messages onto the first bus segment.
