Abstract
A computer uses an active cable architecture to control communications. The computer sends a first set of instructions for completion of an activity to a first micro-controller of an active communication cable. The computer determines that at least one transceiver of an active cable is to receive a set of signals from the first micro-controller. The computer forms a communication connection between the first micro-controller and the at least one transceiver. The computer sends a second set of instructions to the at least one transceiver, wherein the second set of instructions instruct the at least one transceiver to complete at least a portion of the activity.
