Re: [802.3_EPOC] Latest objectives proposal



Thanks for the comments, Tom, especially the reminder about the 1/10Gbps.

I'll probably stick with "baseline" for now because it better conveys a multi-dimensional thought (plant conditions are very multi-dimensional).

Similarly, "ideal" implies unobtainable. Could you suggest language that leaves room for obtainability?

Kevin

 

I couple of quick comments: slide #5 objective 3 – wording change: Develop a channel model describing a typical real-world coaxial cable plant to set the minimum baseline plant condition for the EPoC specification.

 

Slide #6 objective 4: wording change to sub-bullet 3: a data rate higher than the baseline data rate of 1 Gb/s and up to 10 Gb/s when transmitting in assigned spectrum in ideal channel conditions that permit;  Remove red words – add blue words and symbols

 

To me the first statement sets the expectation of the operator of what a “minimum” performing coax plant must do while telling the vendor the EPoC equipment must operate to the desired performance in a minimum plant condition.

 

The second statement indicates in an “ideal” (ie performance that <far> exceeds minimum baseline plant conditions) plant condition the expectation is performance above 1 Gb/s up to 10 Gb/s with measured performance exceeding BER and other standards currently not defined.

 

Regards

Tom

I have updated the objectives based on our last conference call and comments received since then. I have attached the deck as a PDF.

 

Please review and comment.
