DS2, suppliers of Universal Powerline Association (UPA) technology, has announced that it will be providing its powerline chips to BT to allow customers to self-install BT Vision digital TV.
The DS2 solution includes a unique reference design for the development of powerline products that incorporates a female socket that saves the customer's power outlet for use with other devices. It provides a simple one-touch set-up for HDTV-speed home networks in seconds as well as an environmentally friendly standby mode for energy saving when not in use.
UPA technology provides up to 200Mbps speed, and BT's testing showed that DS2 chips deliver excellent IPTV viewing capabilities.
