ZigBee Alliance to integrate Internet protocol standards
ZigBee聯盟將集成互聯網協議標準
The ZigBee Alliance will incorporate global IT standards from the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) into its specification portfolio of low-power wireless networking standards. This move will expand the growing portfolio of successful ZigBee specifications and should further advance the rapid growth of Smart Grid applications that have widely adopted the proven ZigBee Smart Energy public application profile.
ZigBee聯盟將把互聯網工程任務組(IETF) 的全球IT標準納入其低功耗無限網絡標準的規范組合。此舉將擴大不斷增長的成功的ZigBee規范組合，并進一步推動已廣泛采用成熟的ZigBee智能能源公共應用規范的智能網應用的快速增長。
By incorporating IETF standards, ZigBee Smart Energy products will enhance their application capabilities with native IP support, allowing seamless integration of Internet connectivity into each product. ZigBee members will also benefit from the knowledge and experience contained in IETF standards for large scale network addressability, security and IT integration, further building on existing expertise from developing the world’s leading technologies in the area of reliable, low-cost wireless sensor and control networks.
通過加入IETF標準， ZigBee的智能能源產品將利用原生IP支持提高他們的應用能力，允許互聯網連接無縫集成到每個產品。ZigBee成員還將從大規模網絡可尋址、安全性以及IT集成的IETF標準包含的知識與經驗中受益， 在可靠、低成本的無線傳感器和控制網絡領域開發世界領先的技術，進一步加強現有的專業技術。
Through cooperative efforts with IETF, ZigBee members will create additional innovative solutions for wireless sensor and control networks as part of the new specification. Internet connectivity is currently provided by existing ZigBee specifications; however, the addition of native IP support will offer tighter integration from wireless devices all the way to large scale utility IT networks. The resulting specification will further broaden ZigBee’s suite of low-power wireless network solutions to meet the diversified needs of companies in the home, automation, healthcare, commercial building automation, telecommunications and consumer markets.
通過與IETH的合作努力，ZigBee成員將為無線傳感器和控制網絡創造更多的創新解決方案，作為新規范的一個組成部分。互聯網連接是目前是由現有的ZigBee規范提供的。然而，更多的原生IP支持將為從無線設備到大規模公用事業IT網絡獲得更緊密的集成。由此產生的規范將進一步擴大ZigBee低功率無線網絡解決方案套件，以滿足家用、自動化、醫療、商業樓宇自動化、通信以及消費領域等公司的多樣化需求。
“This activity creates a win-win for everyone by combining the strengths of the ZigBee Smart Energy standard with the ubiquity of Internet standards and confirms that smart meter deployments currently underway will have a seamless path for continuous upgrades including Internet connectivity,” said Paul De Martini, vice president at Southern California Edison. “ZigBee Smart Energy solutions are playing a key role in our Smart Grid enabled programs that will provide our customers with choice and promote long term sustainability.” An Edison International company, Southern California Edison is the largest electric utility in the state of California, serving a population of more than 13 million via 4.8 million customer accounts.
南加州愛迪生公司副總裁Paul De Martini表示：“這一舉措結合了ZigBee 智能能源標準的實力以及互聯網標準的普遍存在性，對每個人來說都是雙贏的，而且表明目前正在進行的智能電表部署將為包括互聯網連接性在內的不斷升級，提供一種無縫的方式。ZigBee 智能能源解決方案正在我們智能電網啟動項目中發揮著重要作用，將為我們的客戶提供更多選擇，促進長期可持性。”南加州愛迪生公司是愛迪生國際旗下子公司，是加州最大的電力公用事業公司，通過480萬個客戶賬號為1,300多萬人提供服務。
The Alliance provides the leading low-power wireless networking standards that are open, extensible and easily upgradable. It will build on the success of existing Smart Grid deployments of smart meters and Home Area Networks (HAN) using the ZigBee Smart Energy profile. This move will greatly assist global standardization efforts for Smart Grid applications including HAN devices, plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs), distributed generation and storage applications.
該聯盟提供領先的低功耗無線網絡標準，這些標準是開放式的，可擴展且易于升級。它將鞏固現有智能電表的智能電網部署以及采用ZigBee 智能能源規范的家庭局域網所取得的成功。這一舉措將極大幫助智能電網應用，包括家庭局域網設備、充電電動汽車、分布式發電與存儲應用的全球標準化努力。
“This is what our members have been looking for – the established, respected and mature capability of ZigBee wireless standards coupled with native IP capabilities along with the support of the IETF,” said Bob Heile, chairman of the ZigBee Alliance. “Our members look forward to collaborating with the IETF on wireless sensor network development. The ZigBee Alliance will continue looking for ways to work with, and support, open standards as part of our continuing development of the world’s leading low-power wireless networking solutions.”
ZigBee聯盟主席Bob Heile表示：“這就是我們的成員一直在追求的目標——將ZigBee無線標準已建立的、受到認可的、以及成熟的能力與原生IP能力以及IETF的支持相結合起來。我們的成員期待著與IETF 合作推動無線傳感器網絡的發展。ZigBee 聯盟將繼續尋找渠道合作和支持開放標準，作為我們全球領先的低功耗無線網絡解決方案持續發展的一部分。”
ZigBee Smart Energy is the only standardized home area network solution in the market today meeting the tough requirements of leading utilities and energy service providers worldwide. The deployment of an estimated 30 million ZigBee equipped smart meters is underway in North America.
ZigBee 智能能源是當今市場上唯一標準化的家庭局域網解決方案，滿足了全球各大領先公用事業單位和能源服務供應商的苛刻需求。北美地區正在部署約3000萬個采用ZigBee技術的智能電表。
