“At lectures, symposia, seminars, or
educational courses, an individual
presenting information on IEEE standards
shall make it clear that his or her views
should be considered the personal views of
that individual rather than the formal
position, explanation, or interpretation of the
IEEE.”

4. Ethernet: History and Relation to 802
• History of LMSC
– 1st meeting Feb 1980. Originally known as the
Technical Committee on Computer Communications
(TCCC or “T-Triple-C”). Originally LAN, MAN scope
added later
• LMSC consists of
– SEC (802.0): Sponsor Executive Committee
– WGs/TAGs (802.x): Working Groups and Technical
Advisory Groups
• Examples of Active WGs/TAGs
– Notice the historic success of odd numbered groups!
– 802.1, 802.3, 802.11, 802.15, 802.16, 802.17, 802.18,
802.19, 802.20, 802.21

5. Ethernet: Organization and Process
• Organization
– Each Working Group has its own leadership and projects called
Task Forces
– Each TF has its own leadership. Exists for the duration of the
project
– For Ethernet, 802.3 and its membership make up the Working
Group.
• Process
– Idea starts as a “Call For Interest” and then goes through a long,
thorough and strict process before becoming a standard.
Requires 75% approval (individual)
– Day-to-day technical work is done in a group operating under .3
(SG/TF)
– Work has to be approved by .3. Ensures compatibility etc. w/ prior
projects

21. Motivation – A Link Perspective
Typical switch with 24 ports
• High port count triple 10/100/1000 Mb/s
speed switches
– Linear relationship of
power consumption to
number of active links
– Aggregate savings
attractive in putting
inactive links in LPI
Various computer NICs averaged
• Low port count 10G
systems
– Idle power savings on
a single link attractive
Results from 1st order (rough) measurements – all incremental AC power

synchronization to allow rapid return to Active state
• Wake times for the respective twisted-pair PHYs:
– 100BASE-TX: Tw_PHY <= 30 usec
– 1000BASE-T: Tw_PHY <= 16.5 usec
– 10GBASE-T: Tw_PHY < ~8 usec (2 modes)

35. Convergence
• Connectivity convergence
– Ethernet is the ubiquitous connectivity technology
– From the home to the core, convergence is occurring
• Consumer, Enterprise, SP, Backhaul, Datacenter, HPC etc.
– Drives higher volumes, lower cost
– Eliminates unnecessary protocol conversions
– Conventional connections within the home migrating to
Ethernet. E.g. HDTVs already have Ethernet connectors
• Network architecture convergence
– Different “types” of networks have increasingly more
similarities than differences. E.g. access and distribution
– Higher layer feature requirement differences certainly
exist but can be transparent to the connectivity layer
• Ethernet has a well understood maturity curve

37. Leverage
• Technology leverage
– Family of technologies running natively on Ethernet
• E.g. EEE, PoEP, AVB, HSE, MACSec, Link Aggregation
– Keeps the L2 stack simple by running native
– Technologies are “free” when you run Ethernet
• Media leverage
– Family of technologies supporting variety of media at each speed
– No need to reinvent solutions for new application spaces like the
home or core, simply build on Ethernet. Hybrid solutions possible
• Speed and cost point leverage
– Family of technologies supporting variety of speeds and cost points
– No need to reinvent solutions for new application spaces like the
home or access, simply build on Ethernet
• System leverage
– E.g. An EFM interface is a new interface to existing switch fabrics
• Si and sub-system leverage
– E.g. Low cost 100M/1G switches, optical sub assemblies etc.

40. Emerging Apps and their Requirements
• Focus on application requirements
– Diverse applications distilled to succinct requirements
– Ability to focus on requirements driven by convergence
• Traditional application requirements
– Bandwidth, QoS HSE
• New reqs driven by constant connectivity, on
demand, user generated content and virtualization
• Broad new requirements
– Latency guarantee AVB
– Energy cost per bit EEE
– Security .1AE
DCB
– Congestion

41. Other Network Requirements
• Requirements passed across network boundaries
– E.g. Across SP/CP networks, access/home
• Power feeding
– Used in remote surveillance, RFID, WAP LAN, VoIP etc.
• Features integrated into single box for customers
• Network aware connectivity in home / AV systems
– Different sources/users of data. Eliminate connections
– Similar to data networks. Ethernet appearing on HDTV
Version 1.0 SIEPON Workshop – April 2012

Page 41
42. Other Network Requirements
• Unified and strong management
– 802.3 has monolithic management structure
– SNMP MIBs heavily used by 802.1 and 802.3
• 802.3.1 is a new project that will consolidate all Ethernet MIBs
– Reuse of LLDP for dynamic link management
• Reduces mgmt protocols. 802.3bc consolidating Ethernet TLVs
• Legacy support via hybrid networks
– Would be great if all deployments were new
– BUT, we have to support legacy infrastructure e.g.
legacy telephony cable in MDUs
– EFM and Ethernet allows for hybrid infrastructure where
bringing the fiber closer to the home is seamless and
without any protocol conversions or additional boxed

44. Concluding Remarks
• Ethernet is the ubiquitous wired connectivity
– < 0.01m to 1,000s of KMs
– 10Mb/s to 10Gb/s
– Backplane to fiber (and everything in between)
• Ethernet is constantly evolving
– Expanding its rate-reach
– Expanding its scope e.g. EFM, RTPGE
– Projects go through a well defined process
• Traditional and emerging application spaces demanding
BW at lower cost structure
– Consumer, enterprise, data center and access
• Access portion of the network is critical
– Growing the access portion via higher B/W and strong support for
multi-services is key to enabling emerging application requirements
Version 1.0 SIEPON Workshop – April 2012
IEEE P802.3 Maintenance report – July 2008 Plenary Copyright 2012 Page 44
Page 44
45. Concluding Remarks
• Many factors have to be considered to pick a solution
– (a) Geography (b) Installed base (e.g. Coax, Cu, fiber) (c) Density
(MDU vs. single residence) (d) Availability of end-services and
content (e) Government regulation and cooperation (f) Demand
• Plenty of access solutions available
– EFM, 10GEPON, APON, BPON, GPON and others continue to
provide very rich solution sets to the access problem
• BUT standardizing on Ethernet can enable emerging
applications and their reqs at low-cost with legacy support
– Strong leverage and convergence of Ethernet
– Native powerful and simple layer 2 for access, aggregation, core…
– Leverage of growing technologies over Ethernet like EEE, AVB,
HSE, MACSec, PoEP, ExEPON, EPoC
– Hybrid architectures to support legacy infrastructures
• SIEPON is a unique entity based project that builds on the
successful Ethernet family of standards addressing
interoperability needs of providers by completing the
ecosystem of EPON standards.
