No multi-hop connection example
The weak points of the conventional "HD-PLC"
topology
· Cannot communicate when the noise level is high
· Communication cannot be performed if there are
many branches along the way
· Communication cannot be performed if the
communication path length is long.
In the case of using in industrial applications, it was
necessary to establish a more stable
communication path.

Multi-hop connection example
Resolve weak points with multi-hop communication PLC
· Even if communication cannot be made directly, it is resolved
by installing a relay node
· Improvement of network coverage within facilities
· Higher reliability of communication can be achieved
In the conventional "HD-PLC", it was difficult to conduct an
alternative study in the case where communication is not
possible, but it can be solved by multi-hop communication.
