A second set of devices is also coupled to the first bus and configured to communicate over the first bus according to both the first communication protocol and a second communication protocol. In a first mode, the first set of devices and second set of devices may concurrently communicate over the first bus using the first communication protocol. In a second mode, the second set of devices communicate using the second communication protocol over the bus, and the first set of devices to stop operating on the first bus.
