Overview of Ethernet Audio Video Bridging

Figure 3-1illustrates a potential home network, consisting of wired (ethernet) and wireless components, which utilize the technology being defined by the IEEE802.1 Audio Video Bridging Task Group. This illustrates potential audio/video talkers (for example, a Cable or Satellite Content Provider, or home MP3 player) and a number of potential listeners (for example TV sets which may exist in several rooms). In addition, users of the various household PCs may be surfing the internet. It is important to note that all of this data is being transferred across the single home network backbone.
