A system includes an avionics power bus network, switch, and data concentrator. The avionics power bus network provides power to at least a first endpoint system and second endpoint system coupled via at least one network pathway configured for transmitting a data packet between the first and second endpoint and is operably connected to the switch. The switch is configured to receive a data packet from the first endpoint and transmit the data packet along the network pathway to the second endpoint and is configured to receive power from the avionics power bus network. The data concentrator is operably connected the first endpoint to receive the data packet from the first endpoint and is operably connected to the switch through a wire. The wire is configured to transmit power from the switch to the data concentrator and to transmit the data packet from the data concentrator to the switch.
