1. A telecommunications data transmission system, comprising:
- a) a database for storing and encrypting blocks of data, and for generating an encryption key;
b) a subscriber terminal remote from the database;
c) a unidirectional broadband link operatively connected between the database and the subscriber terminal, for transmitting the encrypted blocks of data from the database to the subscriber terminal along the broadband link;
d) a duplex narrowband link operatively connected between the database and the subscriber terminal, for transmitting the encryption key from the database to the subscriber terminal in one direction along the narrowband link; and
e) the subscriber terminal being operative for initiating the transmission of the encrypted blocks of data by transmitting a call signal from the subscriber terminal to the database in a direction opposite to said one direction along the narrowband link.

Abstract
A telecommunications data transmission system can provide transmission of data blocks using a unidirectional broadband link and a duplex narrowband link between two subscribers, the narrowband link providing control and addressing information regarding the data blocks sent via the broadband link from the first to the second subscriber, the transmission on the broadband link possibly being sent using Motion Picture Expert Group 2 encoding.

5. A telecommunications data transmission system, comprising:
-
a) first and second databases for respectively storing and encrypting first and second blocks of data, and for respectively generating first and second encryption keys;
b) first and second subscriber terminals respectively located remotely from the second and first databases;
c) a first unidirectional broadband link operatively connected between the first database and the second subscriber terminal, for transmitting the first encrypted blocks of data from the first database to the second subscriber terminal along the first broadband link;
d) a second unidirectional broadband link operatively connected between the second database and the first subscriber terminal, for transmitting the second encrypted blocks of data from the second database to the first subscriber terminal along the second broadband link;
e) a duplex narrowband link operatively connected between the first and second subscriber terminals, and also operatively connected between the first and second databases, for transmitting the first and second encryption keys in opposite directions along the narrowband link; and
f) the first and second subscriber terminals being operative for respectively initiating the transmission of the first and second encrypted blocks of data by respectively transmitting first and second call signals in opposite directions along the narrowband link. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
