Trinidad & Tabago get BPL broadband

Bandwidth hungry residents of the Caribbean Island nation will soon have more options as BPL is deployed by the government run electric power utility.

Carol Balkaran, Tariff Analyst at the Regulated Industries Commission (RIC) said TTEC plans to deploy the service utilising a Broadband over Power Line (BPL) Technology Platform which also has regulatory implications for RIC and TATT.

“BPL is a technology that offers exciting possibilities for TTEC. It can provide a host of internal benefits that can improve the performance of the service provider. If the service is to be offered commercially then it can possibly enhance the competitiveness of the broadband market in Trinidad and Tobago, “ Balkaran said. (from Newsday.co.tt)

Congratulations to the Trinidad & Tabago! Look for growth in industries beyond tourism and energy as the opportunity for knowledge work and world commerce becomes readily available.
