Re: [802SEC] +++10 Day EC Email Ballot+++ IEEE 802 Comments on wireless data transmission technologies used for power grid management systems



Geoff,

Understood. 802.18 looks forward to 802.3 participation. The "snap shot" concept was not seen as the most effective contribution but one that seemed easier to make happen.

802.3, y'all come on down into the basement and work with us!

Regards,

Mike

While it is certainly reasonable to provide a "snapshot" of the
capabilities of products based on current 802.3 standards, I believe
that is not the appropriate underlying message.

The real message needs to be that 802.3 provides and will provide in the
future both the short reach and long haul physical layer standards that
provide the core of standardization for hard media connected packet
transport networks (both native and encapsulated transport over other
networks). Equipment based on 802.3 standards is an absolute requirement
for hard media connection of large interoperable packet networks for the
foreseeable future.

Best regards,
Geoff
