A powerline network system. The system includes a power transformer device at a public utility facility. The system has a powerline box coupled to the transformer device. In a preferred embodiment, the powerline box comprises at least three lines including a first phase, a second phase, and a third phase. The first phase, the second phase, and the third phase are derived from the power transformer device. The system has a powerline coupler coupled to the first phase, the second phase, and the third phase and a multichannel data communication device coupled to the powerline coupler. In a preferred embodiment, the multichannel data communication device includes N channels, whereupon N is an integer greater than 8. The system has a first capacitor and a second capacitor coupled to the first phase and a first length of wiring between the first capacitor and the second capacitor. Preferably, the first length of wire is inductively coupled to one or more power line communication devices. The system has a third capacitor and a fourth capacitor coupled to the second phase and a second length of wiring between the third capacitor and the fourth capacitor. Preferably, the second length of wiring is inductively coupled to one or more power line communication devices. The system has a fifth capacitor and a sixth capacitor coupled to the third phase and a third length of wiring between the fifth capacitor and the sixth capacitor. Preferably, the third length of wiring is inductively coupled to one or more powerline communication devices.
