Abstract
Methods, systems, and a Broadband over Power Line (BPL) module cover assembly for enabling communication between an aircraft and a ground-based network are provided. The BPL module cover assembly includes a connection interface configured to be coupled to and receive power from a stringer connector and a BPL network interface coupled to and configured to receive power from said connection interface. The BPL module cover assembly also includes a fuse interface including a plurality of fuses coupled between the connection interface and the BPL network interface. The fuse interface is configured to prevent power provided by the connection interface from damaging the BPL network interface in the event of an electrical fault.
