A method for traffic management of proprietary data, in a network system comprising a gateway and a sensor communicatively coupled to the gateway via a data bus, includes determining, by a processor of a bridging device, whether a dedicated pipeline for transmission to the gateway is available, in response to determining that the dedicated pipeline is available, transmitting, by the processor, a request for the dedicated pipeline, determining, by the processor, whether the dedicated pipeline has been established between the bridging device and the gateway, and in response to determining that the dedicated pipe has been established, requesting, by the processor, the proprietary data from the sensor, transmitting, by the processor, the proprietary data from the sensor to the gateway via the dedicated pipeline, and transmitting, by the processor, a dedicated pipeline release signal to the gateway indicating release of dedicated pipeline between the bridging device and the gateway.

Traffic management of proprietary data in a network

An electrical harness system for communicatively coupling a first bus node to a bus controller includes a data bus including a first cable segment and a first data line and a second data line, the first and second data lines extending in parallel along a length of the first cable segment and being electrically coupled together at a first end of the data bus, the first bus node being connected to the first data line and not to the second data line, and first and second termination impedances electrically coupled to the first and second data lines at a second end of the data bus.
