They're actually the only case AFAIK. You've got systems generating
streams of ARINC429 words (e.g. the IRS, the FMC...) and systems that
may consume the streams from multiple independent channels (e.g. the
IFE). I try to think of each logical bus as a single transmitter
broadcasting to multiple receivers.
