The first spatial crossbar may also transmit data to a third spatial crossbar via a second millimeter wave beam between the first spatial crossbar and the second spatial crossbar. The first millimeter wave beam may emanate from the first spatial crossbar at a first angle and be redirected toward the second spatial crossbar by a reflective surface. The second millimeter wave beam may emanate from the first spatial crossbar at a second angle and be redirected toward the third spatial crossbar by a reflective surface. The transmission to the second spatial crossbar may be concurrent with the transmission to the third spatial crossbar.
