Broadband Horizons is the first company in Texas, and one of a handful in the nation, to successfully launch broadband Internet service over power lines, a technology commonly referred to as BPL.

Today, Broadband Horizons is a leading provider of BPL and other wireless services to small and medium-sized communities through municipally-owned utilities throughout the United States.

“Broadband over power lines is a new generation of American innovation. Power lines can be used for broadband technology, so the technical standards need to be changed to encourage that.”
– President George Bush

“Coming to a home or office near you . . . an electric Internet: high-speed Web access via ubiquitous power lines, of all things, making every electrical outlet an always-on Web connection.”
– Wired News, February 2004

“Because virtually every building has a power plug, it could simply blow the doors off the provision of broadband; it really has the potential of being the great broadband hope for most of rural America.”
– Federal Communications Commission chairman Michael Powell

“Providing affordable, reliable wireless broadband service over power lines is a promising new technology. It is especially important to the underserved areas of rural Texas, where high-speed Internet service is not readily available.”
– Senator Troy Fraser (R-Horseshoe Bay), chairman of the Texas Senate Committee on Business and Commerce
