Powerline Boosted By New Products

Posted: 10th Mar, 2003 By: MarkJ
The providers of future Powerline broadband services (SSE Telecom [Scotland/UK]) have been given a boost thanks to several new products from Siemens and NetGear:

Siemens has had what amounts to a second generation of powerline products in the market since November, and other companies such as NetGear are preparing to enter the market by the summertime.

Siemens' powerline product can act as a wireless access point while also connecting to a powerline network. The theoretical throughput is 14Mbps (megabits per second) and the average is around 7Mbps to 8Mbps, according to Schmertz.


More hardware from different manufacturers will follow soon, although it's not clear whether the new kit will work on Powerline's forthcoming UK networks.

Those interested in UK Powerline should also consider reading our recent interview on the subject. More @ ZDNet.
