Overview of Ethernet Audio Video
Bridging
Figure 3-1 illustrates 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.
