  • Methods and apparatus for data communications through packet networks
    Patent number: 7957369
    Abstract: An improved data communication technique may be employed with modems through a packet network. The disclosed technique facilitates a virtual end-to-end connection between two modems such that the two modems can effectively behave as if directly connected to each other, unaware of any modifications to the data being transferred or to the protocols configured within the communication connection. Preferably, a data communication system for carrying out the communication technique demodulates data coming from a first modem, transports the demodulated data in packets between two gateways, and then remodulates the data before delivering to a second modem at the other end.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 26, 2010
    Date of Patent: June 7, 2011
    Assignee: Mindspeed Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Gilles G. Fayad, Joel D. Peshkin, James W. Johnston, Paul C. Wren
