Patent ID: 8385392

Claim:
A network for data transmission, comprising: a pipe system having a main pipe, at least one junction pipe flowing into said main pipe and functioning as an individual outlet, at least one electrical data line laid in said main pipe and at least one electrical data line laid in said individual outlet; at least one central data distribution unit; at least one terminal device; said at least one electrical data line in said main pipe having a first end connected to said central data distribution unit disposed outside said pipe system, and a second end laid in said pipe system being developed as one of a transceiver antenna and having said transceiver antenna; at least one further data line disposed in said pipe system via said individual outlet and having a first end connected to said terminal device disposed outside said pipe system, and a second end developed as one of a further transceiver antenna and having said further transceiver antenna; and one of said transceiver antenna and said second end of said electrical data line functioning as said transceiver antenna, and one of said further transceiver antenna and said second end of said further data line functioning as said further transceiver antenna, form an antenna pair, between said transceiver antennas being said transceiver antenna and said further transceiver antenna one of a radio link exists and is developed.
