Subject: IEEE P802.3dj/D2.0 200 Gb/s, 400 Gb/s, 800 Gb/s, and 1.6 Tb/s Ethernet Task Force Working Group initial ballot
Dear Task Force Participants,
With this e-mail, I'd like to announce the start of the IEEE P802.3dj/D2.0 200 Gb/s, 400 Gb/s, 800 Gb/s, and 1.6 Tb/s Ethernet Task Force Working Group initial ballot.
Open date: Thursday 15th May 2025
Close date: Saturday 14th June 2025 AOE (23:59 UTC -12)
As stated in the announcement below, the ballot group for this draft is the IEEE 802.3 voting membership as of Thursday 15th May 2025. All comments received before the close of ballot will be considered, the one limitation however is that if you are not a member of the balloting group, and therefore cannot cast a ballot, you cannot designate comments as TR or ER since you cannot cast a Disapprove ballot.
Best regards,
John D'Ambrosia

Subject: +++ 802.3 WG INITIAL BALLOT: IEEE P802.3dj 200 Gb/s, 400 Gb/s, 800 Gb/s, and 1.6 Tb/s Ethernet Task Force D2.0 ballot
Dear Colleagues,
This is the announcement of the electronic IEEE 802.3 Working Group initial ballot on the Amendment IEEE P802.3dj 200 Gb/s, 400 Gb/s, 800 Gb/s, and 1.6 Tb/s Ethernet Task Force. Remember that voting, as well as attendance, is a requirement to maintain your IEEE 802.3 member (voter) status <http://ieee802.org/3/rules/member.html#DOT3>. Instructions for accessing the draft, casting your ballot and submitting comments follow this announcement. Please review the commenting instructions below to ensure you are using the most up-to-date tools.
The ballot group for this draft is the IEEE 802.3 voting membership as of Thursday 15th May 2025.
BALLOT SCOPE:
As a Working Group initial ballot, the scope of the ballot is the complete IEEE P802.3dj draft.
CRITERIA FOR STANDARDS DEVELOPMENT:
One of the responsibilities as a balloter is to ensure that the draft is consistent with the criteria for standards development (CSD) responses, which are available at <https://mentor.ieee.org/802-ec/dcn/22/ec-22-0256-00-ACSD-p802-3dj.pdf>. An Approve vote indicates your agreement that the draft is consistent with the CSD responses.
BALLOT OPEN:
Thursday 15th May 2025
BALLOT CLOSE:
Saturday 14th June 2025 AOE (23:59 UTC -12)
The Project Authorization Request for this Amendment is available at <https://www.ieee802.org/3/dj/projdoc/P802d3dj_PAR.pdf> and includes the following:
TITLE:
Standard for Ethernet Amendment: Media Access Control Parameters for 1.6 Tb/s and Physical Layers and Management Parameters for 200 Gb/s, 400 Gb/s, 800 Gb/s, and 1.6 Tb/s Operation
SCOPE OF PROJECT:
Define Ethernet MAC parameters for 1.6 Tb/s. Define physical layer specifications, and management parameters for the transfer of Ethernet format frames at 800 Gb/s and 1.6 Tb/s over copper and single-mode fiber physical medium dependent (PMD) sublayers based on 200 Gb/s or greater per lane signaling technologies.
Using these new definitions for 800 Gb/s and 1.6 Tb/s, define physical layer specifications and management parameters for the transfer of Ethernet format frames at 200 Gb/s and 400 Gb/s, when applicable.
NEED FOR THE PROJECT:
The project is necessary to provide higher density solutions to meet the growing bandwidth needs for computing and network interconnect application areas, such as cloud-scale data centers, internet exchanges, co-location services, content delivery networks, wireless infrastructure, service provider and operator networks, and video distribution infrastructure.
Thank you for your participation in this ballot and careful review of the draft.
