IEEE Draft Standard -- Adoption of HDBaseT Specification Version 2.0

HDBaseT is a packet based; switched networking standard which consolidates networking of high throughput, time sensitive data and control streams with Ethernet data networking over home span, standard CAT5e/6 structured cabling. The scope of the HDBaseT specification version 2.0 (this document) is to specify the following: 1. HDBaseT link between two HDBaseT Ports 2. Services provided by the HDBaseT network to protocol/interface/application end point clients communicating over the network 3. HDBaseT entities and devices 4. Control & Management scheme 5. End point adaptor entities, which provide communication over HDBaseT for the following interfaces: 6. HDMI 1.4 7. USB 8. S/PDIF 9. Consumer IR 10. UART Endnode devices complying with this specification that do not implement an HDMI T Adaptor may interoperate with devices complying with HDBaseT specification 1.x. All other devices complying with this specification shall interoperate with devices complying with HDBaseT specification 1.x, acting both as Direct Peer to Peer and over the network Endnodes.
