Celeno Communications, an Israel-based provider of semiconductors for multimedia WiFi home networking applications, this morning announced that it has secured a $12 million funding round, which included a strategic investment by international cable operator Liberty

Global. The company's previous backers, including Cisco, Greylock Partners, Miven Venture Partners, and Pitango Venture Capital, also participated in the round.
