Additionally, Samsung, AMD, Corinex and ST and T are featuring DS2 technology in their home networking displays.
'DS2 is the first company to deliver on the promise of PLC, and our demonstration at CES proves that our technology transmits high-quality entertainment content over existing home wiring systems today', said Jorge Blasco, President and CEO, DS2.
'Many consumer electronics manufacturers in several parts of the world are already testing and installing our technology because PLC solves many of the problems that plague other home networking solutions, such as quality-of-service or bandwidth requirements'.
Visitors to the DS2 booth will view and experience content from VOD streams, two HDTV channels, two VoIP terminals and four standard TV channels, all running simultaneously over the same PLC network with outstanding QoS levels.
A full range of DSS9XXX-based chips will power PLC applications on consumer electronics devices from Acbel, AMD, Ascom, Corinex, Digital Deck, Elcon, Espial, Mitsubishi, Pace, Samsung, Schneider Electric, Sumitomo, Suniwell, ST and T and Toyocom.
The large variety of vendors with interoperable products already in volume production and displayed at several booths at the CES confirms the leadership of DS2's 200Mbit/s technology, for BPL-access and for in-home consumers electronics and data networks.
