Abstract

Power saving techniques for a device including an active mode of operation for transmitting a first data stream of at least two data types over wires, and a low power partial functionality mode of operation for transmitting a second data stream over a subset of the wires used for transmitting the first data stream. The power saving techniques may utilize different modulation schemes, different throughputs, different symbol rates, or other techniques.
