1. A transmission system, comprising:
- a data management module capable of managing data flow; and
a transmitter module coupled to a transport medium and to the data management module, the transmitter module storing configuration data indicative of whether the transmitter module is capable of assigning priorities to data the transmitter module receives, wherein the data management module modifies its data flow management based on the configuration data.
