Hello Everybody, I would like to publicly state that I support this Industry Connections effort. Kind regards, Scott From: Kai Cui [mailto:ck.cuikai@xxxxxxxxxx] Hi All, 发件人: Peter Stassar Hi all, I would like to express my full support for this IC activity in line with previous support messages from Pete Anslow and Mark Nowell.

We have been seeing growing interest from numerous network operators covering SP, MSO and Data Center spaces, to have clarity on when a next higher speed of Ethernet would be available. Concern is that it will be available in time for their projected network needs. The sustained network bandwidth growth, driven largely by the increase in users and the increase in user consumption (such as video) is challenging network's ability to scale. Built into this need for a speed step is also the challenge of ensuring a cost effective solution. At the last interim meeting a number of interested people got together for an ad-hoc discussion around this topic. At the close we took a straw poll to gauge interest in starting things moving towards a next HSSG project. Results indicated that there was strong interest in kicking this off.

As the IEEE 802.3 Working Group reflector is for announcements only I have also CCed the IEEE 802.3 general discussion reflector.

In addition, I will be working with Pete Anslow, Mark Nowell, Scott Kipp, and Peter Stassar to put on a tutorial at the July Plenary <See http://www.ieee802.org/802_tutorials/2012-07/802-0712-TutorialFlyer-V1.pdf>. > > At the IEEE 802.3 May Interim I spoke at most of the Task Force and Study Group meetings (all but MIBs and Maintenance) regarding the future after the IEEE 802.3 BWA. I have been working with a group of approximately 60 individuals on a new 'Higher Speed Ethernet' Industry Connections activity. The proposed scope of the activity would be to focus on building consensus related to the next speed of Ethernet for wireline applications, which will be used for the evaluation and possible development of a Call-For-Interest for the next Higher Speed Study Group.
