to the HomePNA specification, as well as interoperability with other HomePNA products. Only after products have passed this
testing are they permitted to use the HomePNA certification mark.
The certification process has two-stages: interoperability testing and certification.
First, member companies perform extensive testing to verify functionality and
conformance to the HomePNA certification specification. Second, regularly scheduled
“Plugfest“ events allow HomePNA members to test the operation of their
products with other member's products. During the Plugfest events, HomePNA performs
certification testing to ensure that they comply with critical parameters of the
certification specification. Once products pass the certification process, they
receive HomePNA's official “seal of approval“ and can use the HomePNA
logo.
For additional information, see our certification
policies.

Industry Liaisons
HomePNA promotes the use of its standards by working with the
DSL Forum and the
