CONSUMERS demand Internet services but
generally they do not care how it is
delivered.
Hybrid fiber Powerline
communication (HFPC)
Give FTTX wings
2. Hybrid Fibre Powerline (HFP)
Overview
New solution which combines BPL with fibre
BPL is used on LV only
Aerial fibre optic cable on MV poles
provides backhaul
Optimised for use with electricity systems
based on overhead poles
Use MV pole wayleave as key asset
BPL to consumers can be combined with
direct fibre services for business customers
Unused fibres provide “dark fibre”
business opportunity

5. HFP vs. MV BPL Backhaul
MV HFP
Active repeater needed every 500m Up to c.100Km without repeaters
Limits bandwidth available in LV cells Full 200Mbits/s raw bandwidth in all
LV cells
High latency limits VoIP deployment Low latency
Requires complex design & Simple design & installation
installation
Low bandwidth (< 80 Mbit/s) High Bandwidth (Gb/s)

7. The challenge
FTTH offer very high bandwidth to the premises,
especially to the house, however the following
challenge hold the deployment:
Limited access method
Installation disturbance (intrusive)
Limited availability in every room

12. HFPL main benefits
Cost effective
Networks of this nature can not only be deployed quickly but also at a fraction of the cost
of FTTH and GPON/DSL
Innovative
Fiber to the node (FTTN) solution for high speed broadband services with possible
migration to FTTH in the future. GEPON/BPL and standard GPON ONTs can coexist on the
same splitter
Simple design
Uniquely integrated GEPON/BPL solution that minimizes network complexity and the
number of network element
Full service coverage
Network can be planned to support basic broadband connectivity plus upgrade to deliver
triple-play services
First time revenue
By not having to provide traditional copper or coax access connections to the premise
allow for simple, fast and automated service provisioning and a reduction in customer
acquisition cost
