The attenuation between phases is minimal. The average data rate degradation that results from crossing phases in the same home is approximately 4%. No additional equipment is normally required to enable communication between phases. Should the installer determine that signal loss is greater than normal, a phase coupler that is designed to transmit the broadband carrier signal may be required.
