DSATA (Dual Serial ATA) is a dual-architecture cable which allows twice as fast data streams via standard sockets. The data stream of cable 1 would be sent directly to the computer. While simultaneously cable 2 streams it's data to the data holder. As soon as cable 1 has finished streaming, the data holder sends the data. This is equal to 12 Gbit/s using SATA revision 3.0. Dual-Architecture could be used fro most any cable if made correctly. This could be used with InfiniBand cable which could give a speed of 192 Gbit/s.
