None of those are features you need for IFE systems. Its quite obvious from the manufacturers description what it's for !
I know, I'm familiar with use of the system in an application with SIL requirements.
This technology makes it possible to mix tree types of traffic on the same network with special network switches:
- BE: Ethernet/IEE802.3
- RC: AFDX/ARINC 664
- TT: TTEthernet/SAE AS6802
Best Effort Traffic (BE) could be used for IFE, while TT (with byzantine fault-tolerance) could be used for flight-control systems. The BE traffic class does not have safety properties, and gets the remaining bandwidth of RC and TT.
If TTTech's claims is correct it should be possible to route 'hostile' BE traffic on a network with TT SIL3 traffic. (But it might still be good to separate this in separate networks)

An old version of this technology (that is incompatible with std. Ethernet.) is in use on the cabin pressurization system on A380.
