Abstract
A secure switch assembly is provided and includes inputs respectively associated with at least first and second security levels, switch element outputs respectively associated with the at least first and second security levels and a field programmable gate array (FPGA) operably interposed between the inputs and the switch element outputs. The FPGA has a first side facing the inputs and a second side facing the switch element outputs and includes a gate array. The gate array is programmable to generate entirely separate physical interconnections extending from the first side to the second side by which each of the first security level associated inputs and switch element outputs are connectable and each of the second security level associated inputs and switch element outputs are connectable.
