RE: [10GBASE-T] RE: EMI Discussion
Draft 4.0 actually referenced both in an objective it added to 44: "Meet or exceed FCC/CISPR Class A operation"
This was removed in response to comments. It is a reasonable objective for a project in showing technical feasibility/marketability. It is meaningless as part of the published objective list in the standard since it doesn't distinguish one part of the standard from another. It would be like having an objective "meet minimum legal requirements to be sold in most of the market." If we did a project with an objective of meeting the more restrictive Class B, that might be worth putting that in the draft. I think it also had editorial problems - if memory serves me, FCC uses "Level" rather than "Class".
Draft 5.0 doesn't mention either so it is clean.

Brad,
Yep.
Geoff,
I think Brad was referring to our project objectives, not the spec. While
we did not have a specific objective wrt CISPR, we should have.
I agree that we should include CISPR into the objectives for 10GBASE-T.
