<p>The present invention relates to a remote powered node for a hybrid fibre-copper network. The node may be powered using the dormant copper pair(s) linking the node to the telephone exchange to carry a ringer current. The ringer current can be controlled to power all the electrical load of the node. Alternatively, the ringer current may power all of the components common to all customers served by the node, with the customers feeding power to their customer specific components via a UTP cable.</p> |
