linux - Using HDMI port as network protocol interface? -
i wondering if it's possible use 10.2 gb/s hdmi port on several computers backbone networking interface home made cluster?
is there kind of hdmi switch? can hdmi transport arbitrary data? can access hdmi port in *nix device eth0 , pipe it? can hdmi port on computers receive data, or outgoing (graphics card -> display)?
this cool.
if doesn't exist, logistics of implementing this?
theoretically, newer versions of hdmi can support "ethernet channel", functions regular network connection. however, have not been able find graphics cards feature. if graphics card supports this, may have letters hec
beside hdmi port.
additionally, ethernet channel limited 100 mbit/s, not fastest option available.
i did find hdmi switches, made wiretek.
hdmi supports auxiliary channel, used carrying control signals between devices. though slower ethernet channel.
