What is Broadband PLC?

Broadband PLC technology transmit high speed internet through the accessible electrical paths and it enables the data transmission between 500 kilo-bits per second (kbps) to 3 mega-bits per second (Mbps) which is certainly equivalent and faster to most data transmission technologies. The prevalence of smartphones and high-speed broadband has remarkable impact on the adoption of smart homes across the globe. Therefore, these chipsets are significant traction in smart homes owing to its high-speed connectivity.

Currently, there is ample of opportunity in developing countries where the broadband penetration is relatively low when compared to developed economies, especially in the rural areas. This technology opens an emerging opportunity for the providing broadband over power lines at cheaper prices. Besides, low maintenance costs and lesser installation time makes Broadband PLC, a feasible technology for increasing broad band penetration in developing economies.

This report incorporates an in-depth assessment of broadband PLC chipset market by standards, definition, technology, application, modulation, voltage, component, technologies, end-user industry, integration, and geography. The major types of applications encompassed in the scope includes smart grids, networking, lighting, security & surveillance, long haul, machine to machine, and others.

What are the major applications for Broadband PLC?

Power line networking is considered one of the major application of broadband PLC and also a cheapest method of connecting devices because these are Ideal for connecting old devices to the internet which don't have built-in Wi-Fi connectivity. Increasing demand for broadband power line communication technology in the indoor networking application is likely to boost the demand for broadband PLC chipsets. Power line networking at home or workplace is more secure and also eliminates the tapping of information, as the data is transferred across the copper wiring.
