Networked infotainment systems have become common in premium brands such as Mercedes and Jaguar, and as the mass market car brands look for differentiation for their products they are searching for cost effective means to implement similar networks in their vehicles. This paper discusses C and CE's experience gained by implementing real time digital optical systems both at DaimlerChrysler and Jaguar. C&CE have gone for an evolutionary approach to improve performance and reduce cost. The new SMARTWireX -D2B system retains all the advantages of D2B and provides an easy upgrade route from an optical to electrical system while increasing the available bandwidth by 4x. The paper discusses how the SMARTwireXD2B meets the present and future data capacity requirements of car makers with data rates and bandwidth efficiencies well in excess of legacy networks such as MOST. The technology offers a full system solution to both car makers and set makers with a flexible 'Network Management software module' that will allow set makers to integrate their Applications in a seamless manner, using a clearly defined API.
