Now try IP over electricity.
- a3w 1y agoPhotons vs electrons? Just rotate 90 degrees, seem to be swappable more easily than using neutrons or other particles, like tau/muon/electron neutrinos. Oh wait, didn't fermilab even use neutrinos in 2012? That seems even harder, practically made for an April fools RFC.
- proxysna 1y agoPowerline is sort of like that. Devices act like an L2 transparent proxies over electrical wiring.
- aerostable_slug 1y agoFun fact: large transmission lines use power line carrier communications for things like remedial action schemes and other system protection functionality (e.g. protective relay trip signals). The carrier can be a few hundred kV, so it tends to be outside the comfort zone of most casual experimenters.

- toast0 1y agoMost IP over Lasers these days is Ethernet (although certainly other standards exist) 802.3ae covers a lot of 10G laser based ethernet over fiber for example.
