MOST(r) Meets Hybrid and Electro Cars
MOST Technology Is Prepared for a Green Future
(firmenpresse) - Karlsruhe (Germany) October 7, 2009 - MOST Technology
is helping the environment by supporting to create greener
automobiles. The plastic optical fiber chosen ten years ago
significantly reduces the weight of the wiring harness. The
entire cable weighs approximately as much as just the
insulation used on an equivalent conventional copper
connection. Particularly for electric mobility, every saving is
crucial because all the electrical energy has to be stored on
rechargeable batteries before commencing travel.
Another issue is "electric smog". From the beginning,
MOST, the leading automotive multimedia network, has
been one step ahead of other technologies. On account of
its physical properties, an optical transmission does not emit
any electromagnetic fields. Consequently, this simplifies
the design of components against electromagnetic
interference (EMI), such as eliminating the need for
expensive cable shielding. MOST is a 'green' technology
not just on the physical level of the transmission medium
but also on the protocol level. For example, the
architecture of the network interface supports smart power
management.
The 80 vehicle models that have implemented MOST to
date now include the first hybrid vehicles - the Toyota Prius,
the Toyota Crown Hybrid, the Lexus RX SUV and the Lexus
HS250h sedan. With respect to environmental sustainability
and electric mobility, MOST Technology is state of the art
and constitutes the modern platform for energy-saving
infotainment systems.

About MOST Technology
MOST (Media Oriented Systems Transport) is a multimedia
networking technology optimized for use in cars and other
applications. It enables the transport of high Quality of
Service audio and video together with packet data and
real-time control over a single transmission medium. MOST
can use plastic optical fiber or electrical unshielded or
shielded twisted pair wire physical layers, that meet
automotive environmental requirements. Today MOST is
used in 80 car models as the communication backbone for
their information and entertainment equipment.
About MOST Cooperation
The MOST Cooperation is the organization through which
MOST Technology is standardized and refined so that it
continues to stay abreast of the latest industry requirements.
Today it consists of 16 international carmakers and more
than 65 key component suppliers. They have joined
together to work with the MOST Technology and to
contribute to its innovation. The MOST Cooperation is
prepared to embrace efforts to further develop and
standardize the technology for other industries and to
establish the corresponding work structures. The MOST
Cooperation was founded in 1998 to standardize MOST
Technology as a global standard for multimedia
networking. Audi, BMW, Daimler, Harman/Becker and
SMSC are its core partners and constitute its Steering
Committee. For more information see
