What is a Residential Gateway?
| Residential Gateway |
|
A residential gateway provides broadband connectivity to the home and distributes that access throughout the home. The broadband connection could be cable, DSL, satellite, or wireless. With a home networking technology such as Home Phone Networking Alliance (HomePNA), the broadband access is shared by multiple devices without installing new wiring. A residential gateway allows users to communicate via data, voice, and video over a single broadband connection. In addition to connecting computers, telephones, and fax machines, users will be able to network smart appliances such as digital video disc (DVD) players, digital cameras, security systems, climate controllers, lights, utility meters, and kitchen appliances. |
