4.2 Point to Multipoint Network
In the case where the PLC network is composed of three or more adapters,
similar situations could arise as with a point-to-point network. These are
illustrated in the following figures:
The STATUS LED in each adapter will show the estimated level of the PLC link
from which it is receiving the most amount of traffic at any given time. The status
LED in PLC adapter 3, for example, could be showing a level of throughput
available from PLC adapter 2 for a period of time as illustrated in the figure above.
However, traffic flow could change through user intervention and then the status
LED in PLC adapter 3 could show the level with reference to the PLC adapter 1
link, as shown in the following figure.
