This standard specifies a communication layer, Flexible Optical Service Unit (OSUFlex), to provide small point to multipoint service channels in optical transport networks. The main features of the layer provide massive OSUFlex connections to directly carry power services (e.g., Internet of Things (IoT), Cameras and Surveillance or industrial bus) into an optical transport network, enabling the flexible bandwidth (e.g., n x 2 Mb/s) and hitless bandwidth adjustment for each point to multipoint connection, directly mapping of service into OSUFlex with the capabilities of high-bandwidth efficiency, and physical isolated service channel for power system applications.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
