===Scope===
To document the various industry usage-model scenarios and requirements for rack-level disaggregated NVMe and/or CXL inter-connected Compute, Acceleration, Memory and Storage modules using PCIe Gen5 & Gen6 external Direct Attached(DAC), Active Electrical(AEC) and Active Optical(AOC) Cables. The Workstream will not explore any specific implementation solutions at this time; however, a future industry standards committee will be formed by willing members aiming to materialize the requirement output of this Workstream into a complete standard cabling specification.
