Abstract
Devices, systems, and methods for extending an optical distribution network to an end point in a user's premises over a power line drop cable that supplies metered power to the premises are disclosed. An existing power line drop cable to the premises serves as an intermediate medium to transmit high-bandwidth data from an optical distribution network to a transceiver in a user's premises. Fiber from an optical distribution network connects to an outside-plant optical-to-electronic device comprising at least an optical network unit and a domain master. The device is powered by electricity from the electrical network to which the first power line drop cable is attached. The device can have an electromagnetic-interference filter.
