SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FAIL-SAFE COMMUNICATION ACROSS A COMPROMISED COMMUNICATION CHANNEL OF A NETWORK DEVICE

摘要

A system and method for providing communication over a compromised communication channel in a system having a first node and a second node connected via the communication channel is provided. For example, a signaling circuit may be provided. The signaling circuit includes a master signal electrically connected to first and second portions of the communication channel. The first and second portions of the communication channel are employed in the first node. The signaling circuit further includes a slave signal processor arrangement coupled to the master signal processor arrangement and electrically connected to third and fourth portions of the communication channel. The third and fourth portions of the communication channel are employed in the second node.
