                  Power Trunk delivers a 100 Mb/s on-premise data networking solution to enable on-premise networks without the addition of new wires. Using the Company's Harmonic Multi-Tone Spread Spectrum (HMT-SS) chip-set users can use existing electrical power outlets and/or telephone outlets to connect audio and video equipment as well as computer networks to the Internet via cablemodems or xDSL modems.

Most recently in Germany with an access system (transformer to the

       The PLT-22 transceiver complies with both FCC and European CENELEC EN50065-1 regulations for signaling in the A-band and C-band frequency bands, and implements the CENELEC access protocol that allows multiple power line devices from different manufacturers to operate on a common mains circuit. Additionally, the transceiver can be used to communicate in the CENELEC A-band for utility applications. The transceiver is FCC, CENELEC, and MPT (Japan) compliant, and VDE, UL, and CSA recognized.    家電機器のインバータ回路が発する伝導雑音などによる干渉対策。通信開始時は132kHzの搬送波。パケットを3回送信しても返答がない場合、次の2回は115kHzの搬送波を使う。115kHzで通信可能な場合は、そのまま送信し続ける。(ref.日経エレクトロニクス, 1999.5.31, p.63)

home automation system Home Director IBM starter kit                                                   The IBM Home Director system consists of two key components: the IBM Home Network Controller and the IBM Home Network Connection Center. The IBM Home Director system is an intelligent home networking and control solution that uses the power of the Home Network Controller and the connectivity of the Home Network Connection Center to facilitate communication between the various systems that exist in the average home. Connecting these systems through the Home Network Connection Center gives the homeowner up to 16 separate video feeds, a local area network for up to four PCs, up to four separate telephone lines,lighting control through the existing power lines, video monitoring through up to four remote in-home cameras and control of intelligent devices through low-voltage wiring.
