Abstract

A power line communications system and method therefor is provided for establishing communications over a power line distribution system, such as a typical electrical distribution network. The system is characterized by a power distribution network including at least one transmission line for distributing power to consumers, a power line device configured via software as a headend power line device connected to the transmission line, and a plurality of additional power line devices configured via software as distributed customer premise devices connected to the transmission line. The power distribution network serves as a communications bus to permit communication over the network between customer premise devices and a headend power line device.
