In-Building BPL – Another Opportunity Realized
Room: 18AB
In-building BPL is here today both for commercial services and energy management applications. There have been several significant in-building deals over the last year, some of them involving utilities. This is a hot market because BPL is an attractive alternative technology for providing secure, cost-effective coverage into and throughout buildings.
