HomePlug AV2 Dual Band 802.11ac Range Extender.

Range extenders are an increasingly popular way to extend Wi-Fi connectivity throughout a home, using an existing electrical system as a wired backbone. The REH152, Qualcomm Atheros’ newest range extender reference design, combines its high-performance HomePlug AV2 chipset (the QCA7500) to provide two to three times greater performance than popular HomePlug AV solutions, and 802.11ac system-on-chip (QCA9882 and QCA9563) to create a dual-band, dual concurrent (DBDC) wireless hotspot anywhere it is plugged in. This is especially useful in rooms far from the home’s wireless router, or in cases where dense building construction creates wireless dead-spots or low-spots. The REH152 is equipped with a Gigabit Ethernet port to provide a wired connection to nearby stationary devices, and can be used as an energy-efficient repeater to enhance coverage. REH152 is presently sampling and the development kits are accessible now.

QUALCOMM Incorporated designs, develops, manufactures, and markets digital communications products and services in China, South Korea, Taiwan, and the United States. The company operates through three segments: Qualcomm CDMA Technologies (QCT), Qualcomm Technology Licensing (QTL), and Qualcomm Planned Initiatives (QSI).

Finally, Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE:LVS), gained 1.48% Tuesday.

Revenue in Macau began to slump when the Chinese government started to crackdown on corruption out of the district. High stakes and VIP players started avoiding the tables in Macau when the government initiative commenced.

Las Vegas Sands Corp. develops, owns, and operates integrated resorts in Asia and the United States. The company owns and operates The Venetian Macao Resort Hotel, Sands Cotai Central, the Four Seasons Hotel Macao, the Plaza Casino, and the Sands Macao in Macau, the People’s Republic of China.
