"onewyr (originally filed as One-Wire) is a data communication system to use a home or businesses existing power line to carry data to that customer. The system has two parts. The first is an outdoor breakout box with a connection to the customer service powerline. The breakout box can be mounted to the pole or bottom of the customer's transformer. The breakout box also connects to the communications network by fiber, coax, or phone wire. The second part is a powerline adapter that plugs into any outlet. The adapter has an ethernet jack to connect to the customers data network."
"The system uses existing Power Line Carrier technology to carry the data from outside the customers location into the locations data network. An in-home power line data converter that plugs into an outlet and provides an ethernet port for in-home IP data communications. The data communications can provide internet, TV, Phone and other data services over a single existing power connection to the customer."
"A data communication system for communicating information over a power line to a customer's home or business. The system connects the outdoor service powerline to a Power Line Carrier data converter that connects to the customers electrical system."
"The outdoor electronics are contained in a pole based breakout box or bottom of the transformer breakout box. The breakout box connects to the communications network by fiber, coax, or phone wire. The breakout box contains a power line data converter, and fiber or ethernet transceiver. An in-home power line data converter that plugs into an outlet and provides ethernet port for in-home IP data communications."

Detailed System Description
"onewyr is a data communication system to use a home or businesses existing power line to carry data to that customer. Diagram 1 shows the full onewyr system. Showing how the communications system connects to the breakout box. The breakout box is shown in more detail in diagram 2. From the breakout box Power Line Carrier adapter to the customers power service line. This connects to the in-home Power Line data converter and shown in more detail in diagram 3. This carries the data from the communications network all the way to the customers data network. The customer's home network is shown in more detail in Diagram 3."
