The logical functionality of a non-blocking multiplexer-based network is equivalent to a crossbar network with an ingress stage, a middle stage and an egress stage. Crossbar rows of the crossbar network include both outbound and inbound internal connections between other crossbar rows. The multiplexer-based network has corresponding rows and connections. The multiplexer-based network includes rows with an internal multiplexer for each respective outbound internal connection of a corresponding crossbar row. The internal multiplexer includes inputs for signals routable to the respective outbound internal connection. At least one global multiplexer provides a signal selected from a set of inputs that includes each input of the respective crossbar row.
