o
Not sure that this is clear and would suggest
narrowing the focus to deliver on what is reflected in the
‘Motivation’ and the title slide.
3.
Similar to #2 above, is the work on P802.3bp or
802.3bw pre-set as the appropriate starting point for
creating a solution to address the motivating needs?
o
Where might one locate the information relating
to ‘the expertise of 100BASE-T1 on study of very long
reach.’? Is this information available on the 802.3bw public
or private area for consumption? Again, could this be
interpreted as pointing towards a proposed solution prior to
a study group being formed?
4.
Based on how any final standard or
implementation may look, some additions to PoDL may be
required, a modified coupling network, different power
classes, etc. This may be a redundant comment on my behalf
as it is looking towards a solution – the intent to support
PoDL in some form does not change.
o
The comment on ‘optional AN’ is confusing to
me. Is the suggestion a single PHY to support multiple
*BASE-T1 standards? Apologies for my lack of knowledge, but
has this functionality been included in the 802.3bw and
P802.3bp work?
Slide 4
·
Title: I would suggest ‘at least 1000m’ to be
consistent with the opening slide.
·
At the risk of sounding like a broken record,
are we expressing a desire to extend the reach of 100 and
1000BASE-T1 or meet the needs of a >=1000m cable length
or both? These may be mutually exclusive aims and require a
divergent focus. Perhaps this is an acceptable challenge for
a Study Group to resolve?
