IEEE 802.20, also called Mobile Broadband Wireless Access (MBWA), was an IEEE standard defining an air interface for mobile broadband wireless access in licensed bands below 3.5 GHz.

IEEE 802.3av

IEEE 802.3av is a 2009 IEEE amendment extending Ethernet Passive Optical Networks (EPON) to 10 Gb/s, known as 10G-EPON, with symmetric and asymmetric variants that remain backward compatible with 1 Gb/s EPON.

IEEE 802.3bs

IEEE 802.3bs-2017 is an amendment to the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard, approved in December 2017, defining MAC, physical layer, and management parameters for 200 Gb/s and 400 Gb/s Ethernet.
