Abstract
An inbound sideband interface is provided to receive a message over a first sideband link, and parity logic is provided to calculate a parity bit for the message. Further, an outbound sideband interface is provided to forward the message to another device over a second sideband link. The second sideband link includes a plurality of data wires and a parity bit wire. The message is forwarded over at least some of the data wires and the parity bit is sent to the other device over the parity bit wire to correspond with the message.
