Gigle Networks has announced two design wins for its 1 Gbps powerline networking solution.
The company said that its GGL541 has been selected by GigaFast and Gemtek for use in those companies’ new powerline networking products.
Gigle says the GGL541 provides up to 1Gbps raw data rates over home AC powerlines via the company’s Mediaxtream technology, which extends 200Mbps HomePlug AV technology.
Gigle’s chipset first appeared in Belkin’s Gigabit Powerline HD Starter Kit.
ZyXEL today announced what it claims is the first all-in-one ADSL2+ gateway with built-in HomePlug AV.
The P-660HWP series features a built-in HomePlug AV (HPAV) adapter, providing up to 200 Mbps raw LAN data rate for triple-play services. It supports ADSL2+ speeds up to 24 Mbps as well as Reach-Extended ADSL (RE ADSL) for higher speed at longer distances.
During the next 18 months, Juniper Networks plans to roll out branch-office devices that integrate MPLS routing, VoIP and WAN acceleration capabilities - a combination designed to streamline architecture and reduce administrative costs.
