Exponential growth of data produced and consumed by consumer electronic systems will strain data connectivity technologies beyond the next ten years. Investments by large centralized suppliers that favor ‘direct to device’ solutions have starved inter-device data transfer platforms A private universal data platform is therefore required to deliver universal secure multi-medium data networks between Consumer Systems. A novel Push-Pull data network architecture is hereto presented, employing multiple bridged peripheral links to create an ultra-fast, ultra-secure, private and low power data network to connect nearly any system. Bridging standard USB 3.0 technologies, we demonstrate a universally secure and switchable data platform offering the highest level of data privacy, security and performance across multiple mediums. Delivering up to 12 times the throughput speeds of existing USB 3.0 data transfer cables, the presented solution bridges heterogeneous peripheral communications links using proven ports, protocols and low-power components. A “Software Constructed” ad-hoc circuit network, the presented digital architecture delivers frictionless adoption and flexible interconnectivity for both existing and future consumer systems.
