Apparatus and method for load balancing among multi-ports in reverse power feeding

Abstract

The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for load balancing among multi-ports in reverse power feeding, and more particularly, to an apparatus and a method which, in the process in which a distribution apparatus performs load balancing among multi-ports by reversely receiving power from multiple customer premises at a distribution point, when reverse power feeding from a specific customer premise is stopped, since a power burden of a remaining customer premise is increased, which interfere with a communication service, can reduce power consumption on the distribution by releasing a link of a communication port connected with the corresponding customer premise as soon as the power feeding is stopped and provide a stable communication service by performing the load balancing only with respect to remaining communication ports.
