HomePlug AV2 Specifications Upgraded to Provide a Connected Digital Home

“Powerline networking between modems and set-top boxes is being used today by many broadband service providers to reduce capital expenses and support costs associated with delivering new triple play and IPTV (News - Alert) services,” said Kurt Scherf, vice president, principal analyst, Parks Associates. “More than 50 operator/service providers have deployed HomePlug AV powerline networking solutions as a means to expand services. These providers require a migration path to a much higher performance powerline technology to meet future bandwidth demands while maintaining interoperability with their current HomePlug AV installations and future IEEE1901 products,” Scherf added.
