Claim Text:
1. A communication node comprising: an encoder and a transmitter; the encoder is configured to encode a first header of a first frame utilizing a first line-code having a binary code word length N the encoder is further configured to encode a first payload of the first frame utilizing the first line-code; wherein the first line-code is selected based on a first data type of a first data comprised in the first payload; the encoder is further configured to encode a second header of a second frame utilizing the first line-code; the encoder is further configured to encode a second payload of the second frame utilizing a second line-code having a binary code-word length N the encoder is further configured to maintain, from beginning of the first frame to end of the second frame, absolute value of running disparity lower than or equal to K, wherein K is lower than both N the transmitter is configured to transmit the first and second frames over a communication channel characterized by first and second channel conditions, respectively; wherein differences between the first and second channel conditions are not enough for selecting different line-codes for encoding the first and second payloads.
