The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has approved a new Ethernet standard to increase available bandwidth and improve the performance of the growing number of infotainment and driver-assist technologies.
Dubbed IEEE 802.3bw, the standard will provide 100 Mb/second Ethernet connectivity over a single twisted-pair cable. This will allow multiple applications to operate over an integrated network, which the Piscataway, N.J.-based engineering organization notes will reduce wiring requirements, weight and costs.
Building on the existing Open Alliance BroadR-Reach automotive specification, IEEE 802.3bw is the first of several new Ethernet-related standards that IEEE is developing. Future standards are targeting 1 Gb/second operation.
