It is expected that HomePlug AV technology will have 6 silicon providers by the end of the 2009. It’s the only 200Mbps powerline technology with multiple silicon providers.
Here are links to announcements from all the companies:
CopperGate: http://copper-gate.com/solutions/homeplug_av/
STMicroelectronics: http://www.st.com/stonline/stappl/cms/press/news/year2008/t2339.htm
Having multiple silicon providers cements HomePlug’s position as the defacto powerline standards and provides its customers with competitive costs and complementary and diverse features.
Plus, the solution provided by Gigle has already been HomePlug certified and is interoperable with the existing deployed base.
