ECOnet

On December 20 has been officially emitted the new BB-CoC version 5. The studies performed by ECONET contributed to push the new thresholds towards more restrictive values in order to speed-up the reduction of the energy consumption in the next telecommunications network devices.

ECONET contributed with the Appendix G (p. 50) named “Evolution of power saving for broadband equipment”, in which the importance of dynamic adaptation and energy aware management techniques is highlighted.
