G.9970 is a Recommendation developed by ITU-T that describes the generic transport architecture for home networks and their interfaces to a provider's access network.
Relationship with G.hn
G.9970 (G.hnta) and G.9960 (G.hn) are two ITU-T Recommendations that address home networking in a complementary manner. While G.9970 addresses layer 3 (network layer) of the home network architecture, G.9960 addresses layers 1 (physical layer) and 2 (data link layer). ==References==
