BENEFITS
High throughput; two HD MPEG2 or multiple MPEG4 streams
Handles multiple HD streams concurrently
Complete networking solution that eliminates the need for special
"crossover" cables when connecting LAN devices together
Provides DRM copyright protection. Flexible support for major
industry standards; eliminates need for separate crypto device
Handles any video codec (MPEG2, MPEG4, WMV9/VC-1, H.264/
AVC)
Reduces need for additional components
Consumer Electronics interoperability; ability to recognize other
UPnP devices and offload host TCP/IP implementation
Allows ease of integration to various architectures; allows system
designer to optimize the architecture to application needs
