Netzwerksystem und Verfahren zur Hochgeschwindigkeitsdatenübertragung

摘要

A computer network for high-speed data communication, comprises: a data transmission cable having a root and at least one leaf node, a signal conversion system (SCS) attached to the root, and at least one client station attached to a distinct leaf node. The signal conversion system (SCS) has a transmitter that transmits down-stream data onto the cable on a down-stream channel in a first frequency band; and a receiver that receives data from the client stations on an up-stream channel in a second frequency band. The down-stream data includes synchronization signals. Each client station has a receiver that receives data on said first frequency band, and a transmitter that transmits data on a second frequency band according to synchronization signals received on said first frequency band.
