Patent Images
1. A communication link comprising:
- a cable containing four pairs of wires, three transmitters operative to transmit uncompressed video data and data over three of the pairs of wires to three receivers, and two transceivers operative to form a bidirectional multi data type communication link over the fourth pair of wires;
an active mode of operation for transmitting the uncompressed video data over the three pairs of wires, and for transmitting bidirectional system control data, bidirectional general data, and audio data over the fourth pair of wires; and
an LPPF mode of operation for transmitting over the fourth pair of wires a subset of the data types transmitted in the active mode of operation over the fourth pair of wires.

Abstract
Communication link including a cable containing four pairs of wires, three transmitters to transmit uncompressed video data and audio data over three of the pairs of wires to three receivers, and two transceivers to form a bidirectional multi data type communication link over the fourth pair of wires. An active mode of operation for transmitting the uncompressed video data and the audio data over the three pairs of wires, and for transmitting bidirectional data over the fourth pair of wires. And a first low power partial functionality mode of operation for transmitting bidirectional system controls.
