[802.3_10SPE] Objective - maintain link under impulse events

[George Zimmerman <george@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We have had presentations that a desirable characteristic is to maintain link under infrequent impulse events lasting up to 50msec.

 

There has been some brief discussion of wording, as well as discussion that it is not clear this really needs to be an objective.  It is arguably already encompassed by the “industrial environment” objective.

Please express your opinion on whether this really needs to be an objective, or is already covered under “industrial environment” given the presentations we have had which describe that environment and the impulse events therein.

 

However, if it is to be an objective, it needs to be defined clearly without having to assume technical decisions in the Study Group, and I’m not sure we’re there yet.  Please suggest alternative wording, if you have some.

 

•          Maintain link in the presence of nonrepetitive impulse events lasting up to at least 50 msec

–         Possibly substitute “transient” for “nonrepetitive”
