Ethernet over Other Standards (IEEE 1905.1-2013)
IEEE 1905.1-2013 is an IEEE standard that defines a convergent digital home network for both wireless and wireline technologies. The technologies include IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi), IEEE 1901 (HomePlug, HD-PLC) powerline networking, IEEE 802.3 Ethernet, and Multimedia over Coax (MoCA). The 1905.1-2013 was published in April 2013. The IEEE 1905.1 Standard Working Group is sponsored by the IEEE Power Line Communication Standards Committee (PLCSC). The idea behind the 1905.1 technology standards is simple setup, configuration, and operation of home networking devices using both wired and wireless technologies. This will take advantage of the performance, coverage, and mobility benefits of multiple interfaces (Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Powerline, and MoCA), which enables better coverage and throughput in every room for both wireless and fixed devices.
We’ll discuss the following:
- Ethernet over Power Line
- Ethernet over HDMI
