Yes, consensus!
This was the result of a telephone conference with Kirsten (Stefan Bunz agreed in front of the TelCo) , me and others of the industrial domain. That
means it reflects the position of the automotive and industrial automation domains. This result was also supported by some people from the building automation domain.

Subject: [802.3_10SPE] Objective - BER
We have had some round-abouts on how to write the BER objective. Ludwig had proposed a nice split, where the short-reach/automotive PHYs had a 10^-10 BER objective and the longer reach ones had a 10^-9 BER objective.
With that in mind, I propose the following objective for discussion:
Maintain a bit error ratio (BER) at the MAC/PLS service interface of less than or equal to:
10^-10 on link segments up to at least 15m, and
10^-9 on all link segments up to at least 1km
Do we have consensus?
