4.3 Neighboring Networks
The Status LED also takes into account the possibility of having neighboring
networks. In such a case, the throughput evaluator will divide the available
bandwidth in two when there is visibility between any two networks since the PLC
channel must be shared on a time basis. In the following figure, an example of an
isolated network is first shown.
In the next figure, the previous network (network 1) sees a new neighboring
network (network 2), and a new evaluation of throughput is made to show the
user that channel conditions have changed and available bandwidth has
decreased:
