Streaming audio visual content simultaneously to different topologies on a wireless adapter

摘要

A source of video data may be coupled to a plurality of sinks using a wireless branch device with more than one connector. Numbers may be assigned to the connectors in a sequence depending on the wireless technology used by each connector. Examples of wireless technologies include DisplayPort, HDMI, and Wireless Gigabit Alliance. Sinks coupled to the branch device are interrogated to determine the number of connectors and each connector's wireless technology.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
wirelessly coupling a source of video data to a plurality of sinks using a branch device with more than one connector; assigning numbers to said connectors in a sequence depending on an interface technology used by each connector; interrogating sinks coupled to said branch device to determine a number of connectors and each connector's wireless technology; and extending DisplayPort addresses with Endpoint Index numbers to virtualize DisplayPort addresses to span both wireless and DisplayPort interfaces.
