DS2 Receives Technology Leadership Award

Frost & Sullivan's recent research service, North American Broadband Over Power Lines Markets, selected Design of Systems on Silicon (DS2) as the recipient of the 2005 Technology Leadership Award for its long-standing and on-going contributions to the development of cutting-edge technologies and products in the Broadband over Power Line (BPL) market.

DS2's sophisticated technology has gone a long way in helping it achieve its status as a major chipset manufacturer for BPL OEMs. Its well-proven technology is a huge advantage in an industry lacking commonly accepted standards.

The Universal Powerline Association (UPA), an international alliance to promote BPL technology, and the Open PLC Research Alliance (OPERA) have both adopted DS2's technology. These associations, apart from promoting interoperability and ensuring that all BPL products are compatible, also guarantee that end-user experience is not adversely affected in the future.

Each year this Award is bestowed upon the company that has demonstrated excellence in technology leadership within its industry. The recipient company has demonstrated technology leadership by excelling in various stages of the technology life cycle -- incubation, adaptation and take-up to ensure a continuous flow of improvements. By innovating leading-edge concepts the company has pioneered client applications.
