Celeno Communications announced that iiNet, Australia's DSL broadband provider, iiNet has selected its 802.11ac chip for its next generation of hardware to enable data and HD video streaming directly from future products to be developed as part of the iiNet Labs product range.
The new standard which operates at the 5GHz band exclusively, aims to improve Wi-Fi capabilities by increasing modem speed and enabling operation at 80MHz bonded Wi-Fi channels. Leveraging Celeno’s OptimizAIR technology maximizes the 802.11ac Wi-Fi capabilities for whole home coverage, assuring reliable wireless video service delivery and quality of experience for multiple connected devices and helps mitigate interferences in dense deployments.
Stephen Harley, Chief Product Officer, iiNet said, iiNet sees 802.11ac as a great opportunity to give our customers a product with the best service and performance available. Celeno's OptimizAIR technology allows us to use the new standard to its fullest, and provide our customers with, what we think, is the most effective solution and, ultimately, the best IPTV experience available.
iiNet’s implementation of 802.11ac is a testament to the strength of Celeno's relationship with iiNet and the added value our technology provides,” says Gilad Rozen, CEO of Celeno. “Celeno's ability to effectively manage HD quality Wi-Fi among multiple devices in the home provides a critical advantage for our customers and partners.
The deal marks the second for iiNet with Celeno, following the announcement that the technology would be utilized throughout iiNet's Australian network in late 2011.
