Minneapolis, MN, January 22, 2010 (Business Wire) --- Suttle announces that it has officially joined the HomePNA™ alliance and will begin shipping HomePNA certified products beginning in Q2 of this year.
"Suttle
is excited to join the HomePNA alliance as an adopter and looks forward

providers and consumers
alike to install and maintain home networks," said Jay Kilby, Dir of
Marketing at Suttle. "HomePNA technology complements our full line of
high-quality triple-play home networking connectivity products."
According
to a recent study by Parks Associates, a service provider-deployed home
networking solution is among the key value-added features that
correlate to happier customers. [1]

HomePNA generally experience higher fixed line retention, higher ARPU,
and greater customer satisfaction. [2]
