SWITCH BYPASS CIRCUIT FOR POWER LINE COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS

摘要

A signal bypass apparatus for a power line distribution switch incorporates two portions that are electrically connected together in parallel with a power line switch. Each portion comprises a transformer that is connected electrically in parallel with an inductor. A capacitor is connected between the transformer and the inductor of each portion and the assembly is connected between one side of a power line distribution switch and ground. The other portion of the bypass apparatus is similarly configured and connected between the other side of the power line distribution switch and ground. In one embodiment, the bypass apparatus is electrically connected to a transceiver.
