and video applications?
Yes, triple play is supported.

• 720p, mpeg4: 06-08 Mbps
• 1080i, mpeg2: 12-15 Mbps

Are Gigabit Ethernet adapters required for use with HomePlug AV?
No. Under ideal conditions, HomePlug AV has a physical gross data rate of up to 200
Mbps. The effective net data rate is somewhat lower. A 100 Mbps Ethernet adapter is
therefore adequate in most cases.
Does the technology support multicast video server streams (IP-TV)?
Yes.
