Abstract
Interface circuitry for an active cable includes a first active cable interface configured for coupling to a first end of the active cable, and a second active cable interface configured for coupling to a second end of the active cable. The first active cable interface includes first transmitter circuitry including linear driving circuitry or non-linear driving circuitry, and first receiver circuitry including linear receiving circuitry or non-linear receiving circuitry. The second active cable interface includes second transmitter circuitry including linear driving circuitry when first transmitter circuitry includes non-linear receiving circuitry, and non-linear driving circuitry when first transmitter circuitry includes linear receiving circuitry. The second receiver circuitry includes linear receiving circuitry when first receiver circuitry includes non-linear driving circuitry, and non-linear receiving circuitry when first receiver circuitry includes linear driving circuitry.
