BPL Lights Texas
Via Red Herring.
With so much of the communications industry’s attention focused on municipal Wi-Fi deployments, broadband over power lines, the once-sleepy technology that allows for broadband communications over electrical utility networks, has struck again—this time in the state of Texas.
Current Communications, a privately held provider of BPL services, said on Monday it is partnering with TXU Electric, one of the largest electric utilities in the United States, to enable broadband communications over the electrical network in the Dallas-Fort Worth area of Texas.
According to the plan, BPL communications will be available to about 2 million homes and businesses in the highly populated two-city “metroplex” and adjacent communities by the end of 2006.
