Abstract

Multiple data streams are distributed using conventional data cables and multiplexing circuits by taking advantage of a technique that allows reliable high speed transmission of digital data. In one example, a number of parallel data streams (e.g., video data streams) are serialized to allow them to be economically and reliably transmitted over conventional data cables (e.g., category 5 or category 6 twisted pair cables, and automotive data transmission cables) over long distance. The parallel data streams are recovered by deserializing from the transmitted signal using a data recovery technique that recovers a clocking signal from the transmitted signal. In another example, multiple data streams from multiple asynchronous sources are multiplexed to provide an input data stream to a display device. The multiple data stream may be provided through, for example, conventional connection cables (e.g., DVI, LEONI, CATS or CAT6 cables).
