RE: [10GBASE-T] The channel model




Doug,

As stated in all PHY's for 802.3 now (see Clause 40.9.3.2) and in the future, "Specific requirements and values for environmental conditions are considered to be beyond the scope of this standard."

As such temperature and humidity conditions will not be included in a standard.

Terry

Chris:

Attached is the TIA letter to ICEA justifying the need for the
environmental study of UTP.  An ICEA WG has been formed to address the
request.

Doug,

ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.2-1-2002 -  Addendum 1 ? Transmission Performance
Specifications
for 4-pair 100 ohm Category 6 Cabling contains an informative annex (G)
addressing
cable installation in higher temperature environments. Examples of cable
length reductions based
on the specified  temperature de-rating are provided in a table.

I'd welcome other  input.

Regards,

Chris
