ZyXEL has been a frequent winner of CHT’s Central Office and Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) tenders.
The kits will enable users to link their Internet connection to convenient locations anywhere within the home to watch Chunghwa Telecom’s Media-on-Demand (MOD) programs at their leisure. The INT6400-based powerline adapters have superior performance, lower power and higher immunity to noise, important parameters for IPTV and movie-on-demand services.
Worldwide demand for powerline communications is rising and we expect this technology to play a dominant role in the no-new-wire networking arena, said Chinru Lin, assistant vice president of ZyXEL Digital Home Sales Business Unit. The powerline solution is fast, easy-to-use and will add a fat pipe for streaming multimedia video into homes. With the successful powerline deployment in CHT’s MOD project, we are confident that the cooperative model and experience obtained will benefit other worldwide digital home-related projects.
“Internet-based video-on-demand services require a reliable, high-bandwidth, wired connection to move high quality video from one room to another with no new wires,” said Rick Furtney, president and chief operating officer of Intellon. “Intellon is pleased to provide the industry-leading ICs used in ZyXEL’s broad array of powerline networking products.”
