DLNA OKs MoCA

December 18, 2008

The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) has approved the Multimedia over Coax Alliance (MoCA) technology standard for incorporation into the next version of its Networked Device Interoperability Guidelines, scheduled for release in early 2009.

The guidelines aim to ensure that network operators and consumers can be assured that new services and products introduced into the home can be seamlessly connected to create high- quality, entertainment experiences. MoCA joins Wi-Fi and Ethernet as the only LAN technology standards approved for inclusion in the DLNA Interoperability Guidelines.

“At the end of the day, home entertainment networking is all about sharing and distributing,” said Charles Cerino, MoCA president. “DLNA, like MoCA, is an enabling organisation dedicated to making the home network experience simple and easy for the consumer.”
