Broadband over power lines (BPL) delivers broadband Internet connections to your home or office just like cable, DSL and WiMAX.  The difference is that BPL brings the Internet connection over a municipalities' utility power lines.  Using BPL, municipalities now have ways of leveraging their power grid in ways previously unheard of.  In addition to providing high-speed Internet, BPL technology also enables utilities to lower costs, offer new services and create new sources of revenue.

Broadband Horizons is the first company in Texas, and one of a handful in the nation, to successfully launch broadband Internet service over power lines, a technology commonly referred to as BPL.  Today, Broadband Horizons is a leading provider of BPL and other wireless technology services to small and medium-sized municipalities throughout the United States.
