PLC Communication

PLC Communication

Power Line Carrier (PLC) Communication uses the already existing power distribution lines and wires for data transmission. ModemTec’s modems enable this type of communication over medium or low voltage power lines.

What is PLC Communication?

PLC (Power Line Carrier) Communication technology uses power distribution lines and wires for data transmission. This technology does not require any special cables.

Data transmissions over medium voltage power lines allow remote control of transformer stations, command switching elements in a system, or serve as a general transmission channel for customer needs.

Advantages of PLC Communication

  • Easy installation – no need to install additional cables, antennas, or wireless transmitters
  • Own communication channel – reliable, stable, and secure network without fees and restrictions
  • Independence from mobile operators – no need for signal coverage and third party dependency
