Metalink's WLANPlus chipset family is a best-in-breed technology for wireless delivery of video-grade content in the home network environment, supporting up to 300Mbps transmission speeds using both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands. The WLANPlus chipset family offers more than twice the reach of competing 802.11n solutions due to its implementation of a Maximum Likelihood (ML) decoder combined with advanced Forward Error Correction (FEC) scheme and the use of Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) technology.
"Last year, Hisense had 15% of the TV flat screen market in China, the highest market share among the Chinese Manufacturers. Our customers are demanding Wi-Fi as the enabling technology for advanced TV applications," said Dr. Li YuJun, Director of R&D at Hisense. "Our investigation has confirmed that Metalink's technology is the best wireless solution for such applications. By integrating Metalink's WLANPlus into our PVRs and STBs, our customers can take full advantage of their HD multimedia content, broadcasting a variety of programs to multiple devices throughout the home. We are pleased to work together with Metalink to incorporate this technology into our next-generation consumer electronics devices."
