A switch interconnect means for connecting arbitrarily selected n contacts out of a first group of n1 contacts where (n1−1) n to n signals from a first group of n signals. The minimum number of signals required for doing this is n+(n1−n)*n. A single pole switch is connected from each of the n signals from the first group to each of the n arbitrarily selected contacts from the first group of n1 contacts. Each of the remaining n1−n contacts from first group, is connected to one end of a group of n switches. The other end of each switch from this group of switches is connected to each of the n signals from second group.
