Events / Overview

HomePNA representatives participate regularly in conferences, on speaker panels, and at national and international industry events.

MEMBER MEETINGS

HomePNA members help to design and drive the Alliance's vision of "no-new-wires" home networking by participating in member meetings and Plugfests. These meetings give industry members an opportunity to connect and discuss opportunities to develop this market and devise strategic directions to enhance technology adoption.

PLUGFESTS

Plugfests are HomePNA-sponsored meetings where members gather for non-formal interoperability testing of HomePNA enabled devices. Members "plug in" their devices for interoperability testing before submitting for certification testing. Plugfests also provide an opportunity for members to network with one another. This approach helps improve products and provides a basis to establish if a device performs correctly or not.

Individual members and interested parties receive announcements about individual Plugfests via e-mail announcements.
