Multi-dwelling unit Building Broadband Distribution: Faster, Less Expensive, Easier to Install

CommsLogic's Powerline MDU BPL solution enables property managers to quickly and easily bring high-speed broadband access to business and residential customers in multi-dwelling unit buildings. By transforming a building's existing electrical system into a powerful broadband communications network, there is no need to install data cabling. CommsLogic helps you transform your revenue streams by reaching profitable customers you could never reach before.

MU Gateway

This device receives the Ethernet signal from a dedicated link to your building, converts it into HomePlug protocol and injects it into the building's existing electrical wiring system. The signal is then sent to individual units or tenants through the master meter or individual tenant meters. One compact gateway unit typically serves up to 50 subscribers, and can be located in several areas within a building, normally the basement or electrical or phone closet.

Powerline Modems

The Powerline Modem brings plug-and-play broadband access to each subscriber. The unit plugs into a standard AC power outlet and converts the signal to Ethernet protocol. Output can then be connected directly to a computer, or to a router in a multiple-computer office environment.

Additional features include support for VLAN security tagging, QoS, bandwidth and element management and over-the-air software upgrades. Also included are four LEDs that support quick troubleshooting, reducing the need for on-site service visits.

Plans to Fit your Needs and Budget

CommsLogic Broadband packages deliver sophisticated communications capabilities with proven reliability, UNLIMITED usage and exceptional 7 day customer support.

Installation Costs

Building connectivity is achieved with a dedicated high speed wireless fibre link optimized for interference rejection and capable of delivering 14Mbps. (Higher speed links up to 1.2Gbps are available upon request at additional cost).

CommsLogic provides distribution equipment for MDU buildings with up to 50 units FREE of charge with the purchase of 10 Powerline Modems. Thus the total investment in infrastructure amounts to a service provisioning cost of $740.
