Comcast Delivers Home Networking the Way Consumers Want It
- May 3, 2004 09:03 AM (PR Newswire)
First CableHome(TM)-Certified Platform Offers Smart, Simple, Solution That
Removes Technology Questions - and Replaces Them With Excitement
NEW ORLEANS, May 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Comcast today announced the national
launch of Comcast Home Networking - the home networking solution designed for
the consumer who wants to experience all of the benefits of home networking -
without needing to know technical jargon like: router, DMZ or Ethernet versus
USB. While "simple home networking" may sound revolutionary, Comcast has made
it reality by launching the first home networking platform to be certified
under the CableHome(TM) specification.
Comcast, the nation's top broadband provider, helped lead the development
of CableLabs(R) CableHome specification, after speaking with consumers and
identifying the need for an interoperable platform that would:
-- Enable the cable service provider to manage the technology part of the
home networking equation - enabling customers to simply focus on
enjoying the experience.
-- Help speed the development of advanced broadband applications and
devices for the home.
-- Ensure true seamless integration among these devices.
