Hello together, what the automotive industry wants is the possibility of transferring Power and Communication on the same wire. It doesn’t need to be compliant to IEEE802.3at. But I see a strong need for a standardized solution! We want plug and play. From a Tier1 perspective, we don’t want to implement for the same application for OEM1 RTPGE with the specific PoAE solution from Chip-Vendor A and for OEM2 RTPGE with the specific PoAE solution from Chip-Vendor B. This would be very expensive in many ways ( we can discuss this in San Diego) From an OEM perspective I could imagine that they also look for Plug and Play, they may want to buy ECU A from Supplier 1 and ECU B from Supplier 2, and they should work together seamlessly. I do understand the question of parameters for the PoAE components, therefore the concept of several Power Level can solve the problem. Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards Von: Geoff Thompson [mailto:thompson@xxxxxxxx] Stephane Geoff, as a car manufacturer, Renault wants: - smallest cost (and standard cameras should be cheaper than specific ones) but also : - small volume for cameras (room is scarce where we want to locate them) - minimum harness for cameras (room is scarce also for harness in door connector, in outside mirror connector, ..., and harness is cost also) Should I understand from your comment that maybe ISO 17215 specification would be a good place for "PoE cameras"? Could we have the same PoE spec for 100 Mbps and 1Gbps Automotive Ethernet? As yet, I see cameras as a good candidate for PoE in cars, but maybe others exist ... Stephane. De : Hugh Barrass (hbarrass) [mailto:hbarrass@xxxxxxxxx] Geoff, That’s an interesting thought. If that line of thinking is used, then the requirement would be that the PHY specification is “compatible with PoAE” – in other words, that the PHY is able to be implemented in such a manner that does not interfere with the delivery of power. For example, if the PHY uses a band-limited definition and leaves the DC-xxxKHz band free, then a splitter can be used to insert power in the same manner as POTS or DSL. Of course, there’s a whole spectrum between “use PoE” and “let the implementer design it.” We could also consider different levels of specification. Hugh. From: Geoff Thompson [mailto:thompson@xxxxxxxx] Dave- Does the automotive industry actually want "standardized PoE" of the same style that the current PoE standard provides? That is, does the auto industry really want the sort of multi-vendor plug-and-play facility that we provide along with its lack of optimization for cost? All - Here is the final question list from the PoE Ad-hoc in Minneapolis. End users (automotive/industrial/other): please look at this list and be prepared to discuss these points in San Diego. Thanks to those who contributed questions, and I look forward to seeing you at the Plenary - Dave -- Disclaimer ------------------------------------ *** This e-mail and any attachments is a confidential correspondence intended only for use of the individual or entity named above.
