Abstract
It is provided a data transmission system comprising a transmitter, a repeater and a receiver. The transmitter and the repeater are coupled through a first transmission path and the receiver and the repeater are coupled through a second transmission path. The transmitter, the repeater and the receiver have virtual lanes. The transmitter demultiplexes the transmission data into as many data streams as a number of useable virtual lanes based on useable lane information. The repeater monitors failures of the transmission lanes of the first transmission path and the virtual lanes. The receiver monitors failures of the transmission lanes of the second transmission path and the virtual lanes, selects the useable virtual lanes, sends to the transmitter the useable lane information, corrects a wrong order of the received data streams and a shift of reception point in the virtual lanes, and restores the demultiplexed data streams into the transmission data.
