Configuration of a multi-display system is facilitated by use of general television receivers (display devices). Multiple digital interface terminals to which each of multiple display devices configuring a multi-display is connected via a transmission path are provided. A video signal is output to each of the multiple digital interface terminals. Replacement of the video signals output from the signal output unit to the multiple digital interface terminals is controlled to display a correct video corresponding to each screen of the multi-display. For example, the replacement of the video signals is controlled according to a video replacement operation signal sent from any of the multiple display devices via the transmission path.

To enable preferable signal transmission between a plurality of daisy-chained devices at low cost. A transmission device generates a plurality of signals having different voltage levels and outputs the signals to a communication line at different timings. For example, the plurality of signals having different voltage levels is generated by a plurality of drivers or one driver. A receiving side can immediately determine whether or not it is information to be passed to the subsequent stage on the basis of only a difference in voltage level without logically analyzing contents of a signal, and cost of components such as a memory, verification cost, or the like are unnecessary so that the cost can be reduced.

Provided is a cable connected between a first electronic device and a second electronic device. A determination unit determines whether or not the first electronic device is a compatible electronic device. A control unit performs control to operate in a compatible mode when the first electronic device is a compatible electronic device and operate in a non-compatible mode when the first electronic device is not a compatible electronic device on the basis of the determination result by the determination unit. Furthermore, an electronic device is connected to an external device via the cable. The determination unit determines whether or not the cable is a compatible cable. The control unit performs control to operate in the compatible mode when the cable is a compatible cable and operate in the non-compatible mode when the cable is not a compatible cable on the basis of the determination result by the determination unit.

It is possible to determine, with a simple configuration, that the connection direction of a cable is the reverse direction. A cable is connected for use between a transmission device and a reception device, and transmits data in one direction. A connection direction determination unit determines whether the connection direction is the reverse direction, on the basis of a result of voltage monitoring at a predetermined position on a power-supply line. When the connection direction is determined to be the reverse direction, the information transmission unit transmits information indicating that the connection direction is the reverse direction, to the transmission device or the reception device.
