MaxLinear and Comtrend announced the availability of ITU-T standards-based powerline data modules for EV Charging Stations (EVSE) backend ., including data centers and smart parking extensions.

Using MaxLinear G.hn technology (data-over-powerline), Comtrend’s innovative powerline data module series collects and transfers data from power meters in EV charging infrastructure (EVSE) and IoT devices without the need for new cable installations. Comtrend leverages existing electrical powerlines for data communication, providing a scalable and hassle-free solution. This approach is particularly effective in underground concrete environments, where charging stations are frequently installed and other technologies lack reliability.

Comtrend PM 1540 key benefits include:

– No new wiring required – uses existing electrical wires for data transmission.
– Lower latency, higher speeds, and greater stability than traditional methods.
– Real-time connectivity.
– Significant cost savings vs. LAN, Wi-Fi, or 4G solutions.
– Simplified installation — reduced complexity, time, and no need for additional infrastructure.
– Supports an electric wire domain of up to 250 nodes for large-scale deployments.
– Strong signal transmission reaching up to 700 meters with up to 16 levels of signal repetition.

Why MaxLinear G.hn for EV Charging?

The versatility of the G.hn technology standard provides ultra-fast and reliable network connectivity for a wide range of markets and applications. G.hn works over any wiring infrastructure – coax, telephone wire, powerline, or Power-over-Fiber (POF). G.hn achieves very low latency while enforcing comprehensive Quality of Service (QoS) and delivering Gigabit speeds under any packet size. MaxLinear’s G.hn baseband processors and analog front-end chipsets are fully ITU compliant and deliver physical data rates up to 2Gbps, the fastest G.hn performance in the industry. Deploying MaxLinear G.hn for EV charging stations enables seamless interoperability, efficiency, and low-cost deployments.
