Abstract

Output from a plurality of radios is received at input ports of a combiner, combined and carried over a coaxial line to a receiver. A DC current is detected entering one of the input ports. The input port in which DC current was detected is assigned as a DC I/O port, and an identity of the assigned DC I/O port is wireless transmitted to the receiver. The receiver separates a DC current from the combined signals received over the coaxial transmission line. The receiver, based on the wireless transmitted identity of the assigned DC I/O port, routes separated DC current to a receiver I/O port corresponding to the identity of the assigned DC I/O port.
