Systems and methods are provided for optimizing power consumption for power line communication (PLC). An example system may include a coupler that connects the system to a power line; an analog front end (AFE) for handling communications over the power line via the coupler; and a processor for controlling power consumption of the AFE. The processor may determine information regarding one or more control parameters of the analog front end (AFE), the information relating to powerline communications (PLC) over the power line; and based on the information, sets or adjusts the one or more control parameters of the analog front end (AFE), to control power consumption of the analog front end (AFE) during the powerline communications (PLC) over the power line. The analog front end (AFE) may then transmit or receive data over the power line using powerline communications (PLC), based on the one or more control parameters.
