A base address sorting device in a serial switch is disclosed which includes an array of shadow registers, each shadow register in the array being electrically coupled to a base address register, in an array of base address registers, each of the base address registers having a base address, and control logic circuitry electrically coupled to the array of shadow registers and to the array of base address registers with the control logic circuitry being operable, when it receives a configuration command, to implement a method, for reconfiguring the contents of the array of base address registers, including: inserting a new base address from the configuration command into a shadow register in the array of shadow registers, sorting the array of shadow registers into a predetermined order, and then copying the contents of the array of shadow registers into the array of base address registers.
