It’s a completely different adoption rate than fiber.

Also, most Telcos that today are deploying home networks for their IPTV services are already using non-standard versions of this very same technology. They are simply waiting for standards-based products to be available to migrate rapidly from proprietary networks to G.hn-based networks.

cheers.

This is similiar to the whole “Fiber” reveloution. Most homes still are not even close to having fiber lines from the street yet.

Chips will be out in early 2010 and there will be a very rapid migration from today’s proprietary technologies to standards-based G.hn products.
