342 FOREWORD
343 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
344 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
345 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
346 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
347 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
348 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
349 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
350 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
351 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
352 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
353 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
354 interested IEC National Committees.
355 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
356 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
357 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
358 misinterpretation by any end user.
359 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
360 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
361 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
362 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
363 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
364 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
365 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
366 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
367 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
368 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
369 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
370 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
371 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
372 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
373 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
374 International Standard IEC 61375-2-5 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 9:
375 Electrical equipment and systems for railways.
376 This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2014. This edition
377 constitutes a technical revision.
378 a) Support of train backbone topologies: aggregated and segregated topology .
379 b) Support for 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) and 10BASE-T1L backbone
380 c) Support for extended train composition (e.g. as required for freight trains)
381 d) Extensions for multiple network domains
382 e) Extensions needed for reaching a higher safety level in train inauguration (BEACON
383 proxy function)
384 f) Support for Per-Stream Filtering and Policing (IEEE 802.1Qci) to ensure traffic shaping
385 and protection against misbehaving streams
386 g) Enhanced Quality of Service (QoS) in Ethernet communication through Frame
387 Preemption (IEEE 802.1Qbu)
IEC CDV 61375-2-5 © IEC 2025
388 h) Support for Frame Replication and Elimination for Reliability (IEEE 802.1CB)
389 i) Extension of ETB management and monitoring by using NetConf
390 Furthermore, enhancements in this document are made to improve readability and to lower the
391 risk of misinterpretations by improving clarity.
392 The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
9/1933/FDIS 9/1961/RVD
394 Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
395 voting indicated in the above table.
396 This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
