I’m sure that they have many products (semiconductors) as
a result of what we did in the project, but I don’t know
the status, which are used in in-home PLC for sure.
However, I’m not sure if there are many device providers
using them for PLC services, CPEs, etc.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p>Very topically for California is whether there would be enough
bandwidth to provide remote sensors on power poles, like heat, IR
shots, circuit open, etc. A couple thousand every pole or two
would probably be way cheaper than undergrounding which has its
own set of issue.</p>
