I've long been a supporter of Audio Video Bridging (AVB)--an open standard way of sending time-synchronized audio and video information over an Ethernet network. AVB has been slowly working through the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standards process for a long time--work on the standard began in 2005. I've been increasingly concerned that with an open standard vacuum, Audinate's proprietary Dante audio networking system will offer "good enough" functionality for most shows, thereby killing off any demand for...

It’s assumed by the cable industry – and many of their competitors in the telephone industry, no doubt, though more quietly – that coaxial cable is inherently superior to twisted-pair copper wiring.
Early interop testing with Broadcom, Ikanos, Lantiq and Realtek. Huawei and Alcatel have shipped over two million ports of vectored VDSL that don't fully meet the standard. Only perhaps 20K of them actually are running in vectored mode.
Fourteen companies met in Durham, New Hampshire during the week of 17 June to participate in the interoperability testing of equipment implementing the ITU-T VDSL2 G.vector technologies. This plugfest is part of a series of interoperability test events organised by the Broadband Forum and hosted by the University of New Hampshire InterOperability Laboratory (UNH-IOL), focused on detailed testing of G.vector functionality. The participating companies were Actiontec Electronics, Adtran, Alcatel-Lucent, Broadcom, Calix, Exfo, Ikanos, JDSU, Lantiq, Netgear, Pace, Realtek Semiconductor and...
With telecompetitors looking to further leverage their capital investments in DSL technology, 14 companies gathered in Durham, New Hampshire the week of June 17 to participate in wide-scale interoperability testing of ITU-T VDSL2 G.vector equipment.
