Powerline access to outpace DSL and cable

Broadband over power line (BPL) subscriber growth in the U.S. will outpace DSL and cable over the next five years. Research from Parks Associates forecasts subscriber numbers to increase from 400,000 in 2007 to 2.5 m by 2011.

One reason for the growth is the delivery of broadband to households in rural areas, which cannot be served with conventional broadband services.
