For immediate release: Coaxsys, Digital Delivery Group Reach Distribution Agreement for First CATV-Compatible Ethernet-over-Coax IP Network 100Mbps IP Retrofit Solution, TVnet/C Pro, Now Available Nationwide LOS GATOS, Calif., October 12, 2005 – Coaxsys, leaders in IPTV and multimedia networking, and Digital Delivery Group (DDG), a national consortium of CE specialty distributors, have reached an agreement to distribute TVnet/C Pro. TVnet/C Pro is a 100Mbps Ethernet-over-Coax solution that enables custom integrators to use a home's existing coaxial cable to simultaneously distribute cable television (CATV), provide IP video distribution, and enable high-speed IP multimedia networking. Coaxsys' TVnet/C Pro is the first high-speed Ethernet-over-Coax Cat-5 alternative to target custom installers and systems integrators. While TVnet solutions are already deployed by more than fifty Telcos, cable operators, and service providers, TVnet/C Pro is the first CATV-compatible high-speed home networking solution available to the public through the CI channel. DDG, with member sales companies and warehouses strategically located throughout the US, will provide national distribution coverage for this revolutionary solution. David Kaplan, Director of the Digital Delivery Group, said "We are extremely excited about being selected to distribute TVnet/C Pro, one of the most powerful and practical home networking products available. Installers will now be able to retrofit homes or extend existing networks without having to rewire with Cat-5 Ethernet. Using existing coax will create opportunities for new and in many cases previously impractical projects." Matt Bossory, National Sales Manager at Coaxsys, said "We are enthusiastic about TVnet/C Pro's introduction to the custom integrator market, and we believe that DDG is an exceptional partner for us. Their national reach, commitment to training, and market guidance are what makes DDG a top-notch distribution partner, and we are excited about moving forward with them." TVnet/C Pro is a high-speed 100Mbps IP networking adapter specifically designed to enable custom integrators to use existing coax for both CATV and connecting any Ethernet device. TVnet/C Pro functions over RG-6 or RG-59 coax, works through splitters, and operates in any coax topology, including home-runs or daisy chains. The high-bandwidth network makes it possible for installers to send multiple video streams throughout a network, as well as connect any number of Ethernet devices, including home theater components, media servers, DVRs, IP security cameras, video game consoles, and any other Ethernet device. TVnet/C Pro does not disrupt CATV signals and is compatible with both SD and HD video. The two companies noted that TVnet/C Pro adapters are available now.
