170Mbps Data Transfer Coming To Home Power Lines Soon

Filed in archive Wiring A Home on March 14, 2005

Sony, Mitsubishi, and Panasonic have formed the SECA Powerline Alliance which has a goal of transporting internet and media signals around the home via the electricity network. The technology is supposed to give a transfer rate of up to 170Mbps and an article at YahooNews.com states:

The speed is three times faster than wireless technology Wi-Fi and is fast enough for high definition television signals. Unlike wireless alternatives, the powerline technology performance is stable throughout the home. SECA will compete with existing technology from the HomePlug alliance of 50 companies, including Japanese group Sharp (6753.T). The two systems are not compatible.

Sounds pretty promising! [via Engadget]
