DS2, the world's leading powerline chipset supplier for multi-media communications, has recently completed tests demonstrating dramatically improved Apple TV performance through the use of DS2-powered, Universal Powerline Association (UPA) certified adapters.
"Apple TV gives viewers the ability to watch their favorite downloaded shows and movies on their televisions rather than on their computer, and they can fully realise that potential through the use of DS2-enabled Powerline adapters," said Jorge Blasco, chief executive officer of DS2. "DS2's combination of unmatched speed, security and quality of service gives Apple TV customers immediate access to their programming, while freeing up their wireless connections for other applications."
Using the home's existing powerlines to turn each electrical outlet into a high-speed networking hub, DS2's UPA-certified adapters have demonstrated 10 Mb file transfers at less than 20 seconds; a four-fold increase over similar networking technologies.
DS2 chips power three retail-available Powerline adapters in the U.S., manufactured by Corinex Communications, D-Link and NETGEAR. Using DS2's first-to-market 200 Mbps chipsets, these adapters enable top-end performance from today's leading home networking applications.
