  • Publication number: 20130177049
    Abstract: A broadband power line network device includes a printed circuit board, a power converter, a network control chip, a network connector, and an Ethernet signal coupling device. The printed circuit board includes a primary layout region and a secondary layout region. The primary layout region and the secondary layout region are separated from each other by a first distance. The power converter includes a pair of power-receiving terminals for receiving an AC voltage, thereby converting the AC voltage into a DC voltage. The network control chip is disposed on the primary layout region for receiving the DC voltage. The network connector is disposed on the secondary layout region for transmitting or receiving an external network signal. The Ethernet signal coupling device is arranged between the primary layout region and the secondary layout region.
