Powerline Ethernet Technology

[Bryan Smith <bryan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I am confused. On the one hand I have read that Cat5e is not capable of
handling HD video yet now I am reading that I can send it over the mains
using the 200Mbps Homeplug standard.

If Homeplug really will do the job, and given its low cost and ease of
expansion, why would anyone bother to pull miles of Cat5e?

My major refurb/extension project as yet has no ceilings or dry lining,
or even electrics so I am well placed to get someone to install cable to
a perfectly located node zero, but I am wondering whether I should bother.

What am I missing?
