Why Is Powerline On The Verge Of Ubiquity?
95% of the world’s households have electricityThat means they already have a home network!No need to install Ethernet cables, no “truck-rolls”
Several electrical outlets in every roomServices everywhere in the home
Meets quality of service requirements for video, audio, dataConsistent performance everywhere in the houseGoes “through” walls, up floors, down floors and everywhere else
Plug and Play technology – simple to useA single technology that can be used in BPL, in-home networking, and command and control applications
Powerline is the “Dark Wire” that is about to be “lit”!
InStat - Broadband PowerlineNetworking Gets a Jolt from IPTVPowerline networking offers a solution with some advantages over coax and twisted-pair cabling for in-home deployment, especially in regions with little existing coax or phone line jacks, such as in EMEA, China, and many Asia-Pacific countries. At this time, we do not believe that there will be one clear technology winner in the networking interface race between coax, phone line, and powerline; however, our current analysis points toward powerline as winning on a worldwide scale. In 2005, worldwide unit shipments of broadband powerline equipment surpassed 2 million, and the market has reached an inflection point this year that points only upward.
Worldwide Unit Shipments for BroadbandPowerline Equipment Surpassed 2 Million Research and Markets has announced the addition of BroadbandPowerline Networking Gets a Jolt from IPTV to their offering. Powerline networking offers a solution with some advantagesover coax and twisted-pair cabling for in-home deployment,especially in regions with little existing coax or phone line jacks,such as in EMEA, China, and many Asia-Pacific countries.At this time, we do not believe that there will be one clear technologywinner in the networking interface race between coax, phone line, andpowerline; however, our current analysis points toward powerline aswinning on a worldwide scale.
Broadband Powerline NetworkingWill Win in Residential Networking Broadband powerline networking, a wired technologythat does not require new cabling to be installed,is poised to emerge as a winner in the residentialnetworking interface race on a worldwide basis, reportsIn-Stat. Powerline networking has advantages over coaxand twisted-pair cabling for in-home deployment.This is especially true in regions with few existingcoax or phone jacks, such as in EMEA, Asia, and PacificRim countries, the high-tech market research firm says.
Internet TV Use Expected to Soar The number of subscribers to Internet television worldwide is expectedto increase twelve fold by 2010, bringing with it a host of new servicesfor consumers, a market research firm said Thursday. The number ofIPTV subscribers is expected to increase at a compound annual growthrate of 92.1 percent to 63.1 million in 2010 from 2.4 million last year,iSuppli Corp. said. The number of subscribers is expected to reach 5.3 million this year
Significant GlobalPowerline Growth
In-Stat Asia/Pacific Survey“Asia will eclipse North America for the region with the most home networks by 2008, rising from 27% of all home networks worldwide in 2004 to 36% in 2008, with North America dropping from 46% to 34% in the same time span”

Industry Leading Security Measures (modeled after WiFi)Carrier-class QoS
Call To ActionHomePlug AV is quickly becoming the de-facto powerline standard for powerline communications and distribution
Whole-house coverageEase-of-Use (looks like Ethernet)StabilityLow-costSimple WiFi model of operation (WCN)Secure
Endpoint H/W developers should recognize that HPAV will support all internal Windows Vista comm utilitiesHPAV should be viewed as a 1st-class citizen on Windows Vista platforms
The Future Of Homeplug
Significant work being done onfuture-proofing HomePlug
The HomePlug Alliance is dedicated to driving performance well beyond its current 200bps level
Standards-based approach is the main backdrop to driving performance
Killer-apps are fueling the need for increased speeds
