For many years, Power Line Communication (PLC) System has been built to communicate low bandwidth analog and digital information over residential, commercial, and high voltage power line. Power line has been considered for the transmission of electricity in the past as well. However, with the emergence of modern networking technologies including broadband, there is a more than ever need for utility and service providers to discover solutions that are able to deliver the services to the consumers at minimum cost and maxium performance. With the advent of smart grid and need for substation automation, the potential of power line as a powerful medium to be able to deliver not only electricity or control signals, but even full duplex high speed data and multimedia content are being explored now.
This report describes the market trends, drivers, and challenges of the PLC market and forecasts the market to 2017, based on applications, technology, equipment, and geography. This report covers geographies like the Americas, Europe, APAC, and ROW (Rest of the World).
