[802SEC] Comments on 802.3ch PAR
Dear David
I have the following comments and questions regarding the 802.3ch PAR
1) The media type (copper vs. optical) is not specified in the scope.
Is it the intention of the WG that this standard might specify either or
both?
2) The typical reach is not specified. While for an automobile, 15 m
may be appropriate, for a tandem or triple trailer truck, 50 m may be
appropriate. I think the scope should list the target connection length
for the proposed work. The CSD requirements that this a project is
technically feasible and cost effective cannot be evaluated without
knowing the target distance.
For example, the scope could say "supporting link distances of at least
15 m" or "supporting link distances of approximately 50 m"
