Abstract
Aspects of a system for transforming compressed video traffic to network-aware Ethernet traffic with A/V bridging capabilities and A/V bridging extensions may include a graphics processing unit (GPU) that may enable encapsulation of compressed video data within a Display Port protocol data unit (PDU). A LAN subsystem may enable encapsulation of the Display Port PDU within an encapsulating PDU. The LAN subsystem may enable determination of a traffic class designation associated with the encapsulating PDU. The LAN subsystem may enable transmission of the encapsulating PDU via a network based on the traffic class designation. The LAN subsystem may also enable the encapsulation of compressed video data within Ethernet frames. A computing device, which receives the Ethernet frames may de-compress the compressed video data and send the uncompressed video data, which may be encapsulated within one or more Display Port mini-packets, to a multimedia monitor.
