Multimedia home networks - Home network communication protocol over IP for multimedia household appliances

specifies the requirements for the interface between the Home Network Lower Layer for a country's home network of standalone-type household appliances and the TCP/IP Layer for cases where it is intended to introduce a TCP/IP Layer to each of the nodes comprising such home network of standalone-type household appliances. The specified interface in the Home Network Lower Layer consists of 2 portions, the TCP/IP Interface and the lower medium-specific Interface. Figure 3 shows the composition of the Home Network Layer and the standardized portions. In Annex C, this standard specifies the requirements for the lower medium-specific Interface One of these layers shall be IEEE 802.15.1, short-distance radio standard additional layers can be added in the future).

Multimedia-Heimnetzwerke - Heimnetzwerk-Kommunikationsprotokoll über IP für Multimedia-Haushaltsgeräte

Réseaux résidentiels multimédia - Protocole de communication de réseau résidentiel sur IP destiné aux appareils domestiques multimédia.

La CEI 62457:2012 spécifie les exigences relatives à l'interface entre la couche inférieure d'un réseau résidentiel pour un réseau résidentiel local d'appareils domestiques de type autonome et la couche TCP/IP (Protocole de commande de transmission/Protocole Internet, en anglais "Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol") lorsqu'on souhaite introduire une couche TCP/IP à chacun des n uds comprenant ce réseau résidentiel d'appareils domestiques de type autonome. L'interface spécifiée dans la couche inférieure du réseau résidentiel est constituée de 2 parties, l'interface TCP/IP et l'interface inférieure spécifique au support. La présente version bilingue (2012-10) correspond à la version anglaise monolingue publiée en 2007-09.
