120 year old technology reloads as high-tech


" Electricity and electrical power transmission lines have been a part of economic life in the US for the last 120 years. Now this technology with a little tweak may make some of the current high tech communication systems obsolete. Apparently, Broadband over existing electrical power transmission lines could make every electrical outlet in a home or business an Internet outlet. This concept is based on utility companies sending a simple ``carrier wave’’ down the power lines. Supposedly, this technology would be twice as fast as cable and ten times faster than DSL technology. This scenario of using power transmission lines for voice and data communication would put utility companies in head to head competition cable and phone companies. "
