IEEE 802.3cx-2023 PDF
Define optional enhancements to Ethernet support for time synchronization protocols to provide improved timestamp accuracy in support of ITU-T Recommendation G.8273.2 ‘Class C’ and ‘Class D’ system time error performance requirements.
Amendment Standard – Active. This amendment to IEEE Std 802.3-2022 modifies Clause 30, Clause 45, and Clause 90, and adds Annex 90A to enhance support for time synchronization protocols by providing options for sub-nanosecond reporting of the transmit and receive path data delays, selection of the data delay measurement point, and dynamic reporting of path data delay variation.
