A system and method for allowing concurrent local and remote network data transfers on a common data transmission link using frequency bandwidth partitioning and reservation is provided. Multiple frequency bandwidth segments are configured for remote data transmissions between the local network and the remote service provider. Selected frequency bandwidth segments are reserved for local data transmissions by preventing, under the control of the local network, the reserved frequency bandwidth segment from being configured for the remote data transmissions. Concurrent local and remote data transmissions are allowed on the common transmission medium, where the local data transfers occur on the reserved frequency bandwidth segments, and the remote data transfers occur on the remaining non-reserved frequency bandwidth segments.
A method for allowing local and remote data transmissions via a common transmission medium forming a local network having a plurality of local nodes and a remote network connecting the local network to a service provider, the method comprising:
A system for transmitting data between local nodes on a local network, and between one or more of the local nodes and a remote node utilizing the network connection used in connecting the local nodes, comprising:
A method for allowing concurrent local and remote data transmissions via a common transmission medium, wherein the remote data transmissions are communicated via a plurality of carrier frequencies established by a multicarrier frequency modulator, comprising:
