Triple-Play services are swiftly entering worldwide households.

Typically, IPTV, VoD and interactive video services enter the home by the Home Gateway. Then people must connect the Home Gateway to the IPTV set-top box using an Ethernet cable. What happens if the IPTV Home Gateway and IPTV set-top box (es) are not located in the same room ? This situation is more than usual.

Wireless technologies are not the ideal solution: end-user experience can suffer from flickering images or interruptions in the streaming because of concrete walls, too much distance, or interference from neighboring wireless networks.

Installing a new long new cable, going throughout the house, is not the solution either; it is not appealing and very inconvenient.

SPiDCOM solution converts the home powerlines into the most simple and powerful multimedia home networking backbone. It is the best solution for ISPs (Internet Service Providers) wishing to stream triple-play services (IPTV/HDTV/Video, Voice, Data) everywhere throughout their customers’ homes.
