"there's "absolutely zero" chance the technology could interfere with local radio signals, as critics suggest."

Since when did results from testing turn from being fact into critics?

How about the reasons behind other towns cancelling BPL deployment..they just cancelled it for no reason?....

Critics my ass, it's called scientific testing

No...it's called "scientific testing" if it supports your position, and "criticism" if it doesn't.

Excellence in Action: Exclusive BPL Site Visit Tour

9.00 – 1.30 · Executive study tour to Con Edison’s BPL site in Manhattan

Back by popular demand – If you agree that seeing is believing – then make sure you don’t go home too soon and miss your chance to see BPL excellence in action!

Following the highly acclaimed Con Edison presentation delivered by Tim Frost at Broadband Over Powerline 2004, and your requests for a detailed update on this utility’s experiences, IQPC are delighted to announce a unique opportunity for you to witness this remarkable site in working practice!

Complete your trip to the Big Apple with this rare chance to take a look behind the scenes of one of America’s most advanced BPL deployments, where you can see first hand how the teamwork from Con Edison, Ambient and EarthLink creates a fusion of BPL magic in this single location.

Scope & History of the Deployment:

Together in a multi-dwelling apartment unit (MDU) on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, Con Edison, Ambient and EarthLink demonstrate powerline communications. Their goal is to provide high-speed PLC connectivity throughout the building that EarthLink can then package as an Internet service and Con Edison can utilize to actualize load management on window air conditioning units. Ultimately, the objective is to demonstrate that Con Edison can better utilize their transmission and distribution assets while adding services to customers through the use of power line communications.

December 2004 - Ambient began testing and designing the PLC network for this Manhattan site, and working with a NYC licensed electrician, they devised a most efficient means of delivering PLC to the 16 floor, 213 unit condominium building.

February 2005 - Ambient successfully installed communication devices to allow the distribution of a high-speed communication signal to all residences in the building.

Two T1 lines, a server, router and Ambient’s PLC node transfer the signal from the T1(s) throughout the building. Ambient’s PLC nodes are also being used at the metering stations on different floors to ensure high signal strength and resultant communication speed to customers.

Itinerary & schedule for your tour

9:00 · Meet in hotel lobby for registration

9.10 · Transport provided for travel to the Princeton House

9.40 · Gather inside Princeton House lobby for brief overview of the building

10.00 · Tour of the Princeton House installation

10.45 · Demonstration of service within a typical apartment

11.15 · Question and Answer session

12.00 · Networking lunch provided

1:00 · Depart for return to hotel

1.30 · Arrive back at hotel

Re: WooHoo

we need to get rid of old technologies like radio to make way for new technologies like bpl. cmon this is the 21st century. adapt or die.

You're joking, right? Because nobody can be that naive or that stupid.

What do you think your cell phone uses? How about television? How about GPS?

It's all radio waves, Einstein. What you do with them depends upon how you modulate it.

"a fusion of BPL magic"

Pretty funny, next thing you know it will have twice the flavor with no calories. Or it will be infused with a citrus and spice...

Dude give some factual information rather than this regurgitated advertisement.

Tell me how well will BPL work when I run my vacuum cleaner, blender or any other device that causes interference?

Re: WooHoo

So I guess you don't care for WiFi, WiMax or any other wireless technology?

How about your car stereo? You don't need to use that FM or AM radio right? Guess we had better shelve that XM radio too, old technology...

Good thing you got cable internet access.

Apparantly, none of those, along with the commentary, are powered by sarcasm...which, is what I think the original post was about.

Re: Exclusive BPL Site Visit Tour: new york city

Okay...so I now know how their PR lunch day went.

How exactly is this "illuminating research" as to how BPL won't interfere with radio signals?

There is one problem with this impressive ad' this is NOT BPL this is a two conductor transmission which does not have the RFI found if you shove an RF signal down a single wire.

Re: WooHoo

No more s-e-x for you! That is old technology. Give it up altogether. Want a kid, go to a lab for that...technology you know! So it must be embraced!

Re: Exclusive BPL Site Visit Tour: new york city

An open wire radiator above ground will be 3 to 5 db stronger than the underground wire. Depending on how deep it is buried, it could reduce emissions by maybe as much as 6db. Now when your talking 25 to 35db above the noise floor with an above ground wire, that equates to 19 to 29db above the noise floor with the underground wire. Still unacceptable. Now in this building demo, it is alot more like "Home Plug" technology because they are piping the data stream in and out of the building via T1 lines and then distributing to the rooms via Home Plug. This is not BPL in any sense of the word. Its a big farce to lure new unsuspecting, non-technical investors out of their money.
