Abstract
An audio transducer system, such as in-ear monitors, are connected to an audio base unit, such as a receiver body pack, using a bidirectional serial time-division multiplexed link. The bidirectional connecting cable has a single active conductor and a ground wire, a detachable connector to the receiver body pack and, preferably, a detachable connector to the sin-ear monitors. The invention provides for bidirectional communication between the audio base unit (receiver body pack) and the audio transducer system (in-ear monitors) and enables simultaneous and automatically configured DC power supply depending on the identified requirements.
