The group, called the HomePlug Powerline Alliance, recently chose a technology by little-known company Intellon as the basis of its standard.
The HomePlug group expects to make final a power-line standard with data transfer rates of 10 megabits per second (mbps) by March, and the first products using the technology are expected in the summer. Intellon and other power-line networking companies, such as Enikia and Adaptive Networks, will demonstrate their technology at the Consumer Electronics Show.”
