Abstract
An apparatus for a wired communication link is provided. The apparatus includes transmit circuitry for transmitting downstream data over the wired communication link during a frame for full duplex data transmission. The frame comprises a first subframe and a second subframe for downstream data transmission. The first subframe coincides in time with a third subframe of the frame for upstream data transmission, wherein the second subframe coincides in time with a fourth subframe of the frame for upstream data transmission. The first subframe and the fourth subframe are priority subframes. The second subframe and the third subframe are non-priority subframes. Each of the first subframe and the fourth subframes comprises a respective discontinuous operation interval.
