1. A communication system comprising:
a router transceiver unit, comprising:
a network adapter module configured for electrical connection to a network interface unit, wherein the network adapter module is configured to receive, from the network interface unit, high bandwidth network data from one or more data sources disposed on board a vehicle; anda signal modulator module electrically connected to the network adapter module, the signal modulator module comprising an electrical output and internal circuitry, wherein the electrical output is configured for electrical connection to a wired connection, and wherein the internal circuitry is configured to receive the high bandwidth network data from the network adapter module, to convert the high bandwidth network data into modulated network data in a form suitable for transmission over the wired connection, and to transmit the modulated network data, comprising the high bandwidth network data, over the wired connection; and a bandwidth module configured to allocate different portions of a data communication bandwidth of the wired connection to the modulated network data, wherein the allocation is based on categories representing at least one of the one or more data sources or contents of the high bandwidth network data; wherein the signal modulator module is configured to transmit the modulated network data over the wired connection using the portions of the bandwidth that are allocated to the modulated network data by the bandwidth module. |
