5. Telsey PowerLine Distinctive Features • Performances that allow to distribute multiple IP TV stream inside the house resulting robust against noises generated by home appliances • Programmable notch filters that avoit possible interferences with radio frequencies and adapt to evolving EMC rules • High security of data transmitted through power line thanks to DES and 3-DES ciphering • Define differnt LAN through different network identifier • The optimization of multicast flow between the different powerline adapters by configurng a binding list between IP address of multicast packets and MAC addresses of devices that have to receive them in order to avoid to generate multicast packet for no interested devices • The support of QoS based on TOS, COS and a programmable sequence of byte to be comapred • The possibility to be software upgraded • An easy to use web interface to quickly configure the device • A telnet user interface for a deeper configuration of the devce

6. Powerline, how does it work? • Connect a powerline adapter to the Broadband Router, and then plug it in a socket • Immediately, every socket in your home becomes a broadband connection • Connect a second powerline adapter to an IPTV Set Top Box, another one to your gaming console, another to your PC, etc.

7. Options for Operators • Currently, home networking means: • Customers do not like wiring: • It is not aesthetic • It is even a reason to refuse the service • It is not easy-scalable WIRING& COST

8. Satellite Operators • So far, 1 TV homes do not need multiroom connectivity: • More TVs in the home need more devices and WIRING IP Based

9. Cable Operators • Similar situation Cable Operators face in order to support other TVs • Additionally, cable operators provide triple play service: • Multiroom is also needed • Data where customer wants • Video where customer wants

10. Home Networking requirements are changing • WIFI was the dominant technology fulfilling the networking requirements during the first wave. • But Multimedia Home Networking is not just Data Networking 2nd Wave 1st Wave ?

15. Is Noise imunity a differentiation? • There are some type of devices and some models that affect speed of PLC (every technologies) • Halogen lamps, hairdryers, mobile chargers, etc… • There is attenuation between PLC nodes and noise source: • Usual place for PLC is behind the TV and PC • Noisy devices are not usually present nearby

16. Is Noise imunity a differentiation? • Real life environments are not like this:

17. Innovation in Reference Designs • Recover Outlet • Filters out any noise coming from devices connected to its integrated plug • Push-button configuration for encryption and network ID exchange • Reset button for factory settings recovery • LEDs indicating the Link quality • Stand-by Mode

18. Innovation in Reference Designs

19. Is speed or noise inmunity a difference? • Summary: • Only few devices and some models generate noisy affecting signals • Real environment attenuates its effects • Noise affects all the technologies • Only closeby noise really matters: • Customer advice • DS2 DH10PF • IS SPEED OR NOISE A DIFFERENTIATOR? NO

23. Video over WiFi networks (1/3) • IP Video streaming is a demanding application • Needs a Packet Error Ratio (PER) near zero to avoid visual artifacts. • Requires a reliable link, with a consistent throughput (e.g. 20Mbps with PER=0). • A PER=0.0001% could cause artifacts if the lost packet is a keyframe or a MPEG motion vector frame. • Most customers define a quality threshold of one visual artifact per hour. • The link latency/jitter must be kept small to avoid buffering issues and/or loose user responsiveness (e.g. When switching multicast channel).

24. Video over WiFi networks (2/3) • Classical WiFi devices cannot handle video !!! • Off-the-shelf WiFi devices build best-effort radio links: PER is not a problem for web surfers. • Unreliable link, trying to push a high throuput without any warranty. • A PER=5% is easily handled by TCP retransissions, but will kill UDP video. • Multicast is not handled by classical WiFi networks. • The link latency/jitter is totally caotic

25. Video over WiFi networks (3/3) • Typical statement of a WiFi silicon vendor: “My device can reach a throughput of 40 Mbps.”(they don't mention PER, nor the fact this result is attainable only without interferences and in line of sight) • Telsey statement: “My device gives you stable and consistent 15-20 Mbps with PER<0.001% in a 120 m2 house, any positions you choose and any neighboring interferences should be present.” (only this HQ link can sustain realtime UDP video)‏
