High-Speed Communication 3

A theoretical maximum communication speed of 190 Mbps lets you enjoy movies, music, and more with ease.

PLC Operating Principle4

Economy

Power Line Communication (PLC) is a technology that uses power lines to both supply electric power and transmit data. Electricity travels in large, slowly changing waves (figure A), while data signals move in small, quickly changing waves (figure B). Since these waves travel at different speeds, there is no mutual interference when they travel together (figure C). This makes it possible to send data signals through power
