PoE-BPL: the network through the electrical wiring
IoT projects, digital schools, Wi-Fi or LiFi wireless networks: the need for connectivity grows in industry, schools and hospitals.
With a useful bandwidth close to or above 100 Mbps, advanced IP functions (VLANs, QoS) and powerful three-phase couplers, the BPL (Broadband over Power Lines) infrastructures of PoE-Tic are an efficient alternative to new cables, with the G.hn Wave 2 and HPAV2 standards.
Several hundred installations in schools, industry and hospitality, carried out by its founder Dominique Le Bourse, give PoE-Tic the know-how to lead the digitalisation projects of companies and local authorities to a successful end.

New or renovated buildings are networked with RJ45 cables, and with optical fibre beyond 90 metres. In older buildings, the cabling is often much more complex and costly, apart from the works to bring the electrical installation up to standard:
- Listed or registered historic buildings (museums, schools of the Jules Ferry era);
- Works that must be done when nobody is there (school, hospital, hotel);
- A short deadline (subsidies that depend on the works).
Adding wired access points, and more often Wi-Fi or LiFi access points, in uncabled areas of recent or renovated buildings can also stop a new project:
- Interactive terminals in school canteens;
- Wireless coverage of the false ceiling of a meeting room, in LiFi for example;
- Access points for the roll-out of digital tablets.
A BPL MiMo installation
Bandwidth
Close to or above 100 Mbps of useful bandwidth.
IP functions
VLANs and QoS, as on a classical network.
Three-phase coupling
Exclusive single-phase and three-phase couplers repeat the signal to cover several buildings.
- The BPL injection or repeater devices are installed in the main electrical panels (TGBT) and in the divisional cabinets.
- MiMo technology (Multiple-Input / Multiple-Output) greatly increases the bandwidth by using the earth circuit as a data conductor.
- The signal is injected on the Neutral, one or three Phases and the protective Earth of a single-phase or three-phase electrical installation.
- In an extended building, exclusive single-phase and three-phase couplers repeat the signal to cover several buildings in the best way.
- Powerful error-correction systems protect the BPL installation from all electrical disturbances, even in old installations.
Schools, industry and hospitals
Your schools networked in less than a day
The electrical wiring of the school carries the network, without any work in the classrooms.
Interconnect your IoT gateways in IP
On an industrial site, the electrical installation links the IoT gateways to the IP network.
Internet at the patient's bedside
In a hospital, the network follows the electrical sockets of the rooms.
