Abstract :
The in-home networking is critical for distribution of data to the various customer devices that will be attached-TVs, PCs, stereos, alarms, and so on. It must support multiple data types with high security, easy configuration, low cost, and negligible maintenance. This paper overviews the in-home networking with emphasis on its standardization activities of ATM Forum´s RBB working group and DAVIC, and its implementation technology competitors such as the IEEE 1394 Firewire and the ATM Warren. Then we suggest the further important considerations of these technologies
