Hmm, should have read your post first... Thanks for the more detailed explanation, and with that, my guess above, is on the money, interesting communication tech.
- nomel 9y agoThe most fascinating thing about any of these high-speed-over-crappy-wire technologies is that they all have very cool signal processing going on, with echo cancellation, crosstalk compensation, and even trading of signal response, all in an effort to design and transmit a sort of "anti distortion" distorted signal that, once passed through the distortion caused by the crappy wire, will results in the desired clean signal. For a funny example of how sensitive some of these links are, just flick a 100m ethernet cable, running at 10G, with your finger. If you're of normal luck, this will cause a temporary changed in the electrical characteristics of the wire, and that "anti distortion" distortion to be temporarily incorrect, causing a interruption in the data!
