IP links between the telecommunications premises and the buildings using
SHDSL modems over twisted pair telephone cables;
Ethernet backbone along the rising mains to supply each story with IP connection;
PLC story network with a gateway device for each story connected to the
Ethernet backbone;
PLC/Wi-Fi hybrid device with an outlet in each room in order to ensure com-
plete Wi-Fi coverage;
Clients connected to the network either by means of IEEE 802.11 boards or
use of PLC devices connected to the story PLC “gateways.”
This architecture is just an example of a hybrid network. However, it makes
optimal use of the constraints of the network installation site. Each of these con-
straints can turn into an advantage if the suitable network technology is chosen.
PLC and Wi-Fi, a Perfect Couple?
As indicated on several occasions in this book, there are many similarities between
PLC and Wi-Fi technologies with the exception of the communication medium con-
cerning the proposed throughputs, functionalities, or even device cost. Therefore, it
was rather logical to notice that these two technologies get closer to allowing use of
the electrical network as the Ethernet backbone and the Wi-Fi interfaces to connect
the customers of the local area network.
An increasing number of manufacturers propose devices combining both tech
-
nologies. The development of the latest standards will soon bring devices combining
