Can you give us a brief overview of automotive Ethernet?
Automotive Ethernet is the use of Ethernet technology within the vehicle to connect systems that require a higher bandwidth than what is currently available. The standard Ethernet frame format and point-to-point topology is preserved. Automotive Ethernet can enable more advanced safety systems (such as cameras, collision avoidance systems, or even automated driving) and more features for infotainment. Saving weight on the wiring harness by using only one pair will help to increase performance and fuel efficiency. In addition, several low bandwidth signal paths can be combined over one Ethernet link to reduce cabling weight even further.
