Scope:

This part of ISO/IEC 11518 specifies a physical-level, point-to-point, full-duplex, link interface for reliable, flow-controlled transmission of user data at 6 400 Mbit/s per direction, across distances of up to 1 km. A parallel copper cable interface for distances of up to 40 m is specified. Connections to a separate longer-distance optical interface are provided. Small fixed-size micropackets provide an efficient, low-latency structure for small transfers, and a component for large transfers.

 

Specifications are included for:

 

automatic retransmission to correct flawed data;

 the format of a small data transfer unit called a micropacket;

a message structure that includes routing information for network applications;

end-to-end, as well as link-to-link, checksums;

the timing requirements of the parallel signals;

a parallel interface using copper coaxial cable;

connections to a separate local optical interface;

a link-level protocol tuned for a maximum distance of 1 km.

Project need:

To review the Standard within the required 5 year period.
