Unveiled earlier this year, SiConnect's POEM technology aims to bring a wide range of benefits to the powerline communications arena, including managed QoS, a true plug and play user experience, privacy protection, full compliance with global EMC regulations, and a $5 chip price.
SiConnect has just announced it has received first-time working silicon for its first powerline transceiver from the foundry, and is ready to start benchmarking the device.
The company is now on course to be sampling its first product during Q4 O2006 and moving to volume availability in Q1 O2007.
