A switching circuit employs MEMS devices. In connection with various example embodiments, signal switching circuit couples primary and secondary data link connectors having at least two channels and an electrode for each channel. A MEMS switch is coupled to each channel in of the secondary data link connectors, and includes a suspended membrane, first and second contact electrodes (one being in the membrane) and a biasing circuit that biases the membrane for moving the membrane between open and closed positions to contact the electrodes. A switch controller circuit selectively controls the application of an actuation voltage to each of the biasing circuits, thereby selectively actuating the membranes between the open and closed positions for routing signals between the primary and secondary data link connectors.
