About the Product
HomePlug AV is ready to use out of the box and does not require the installation of driver
software to work. It can be connected to computers, routers, gaming consoles, hubs, IPTV
set-top boxes, and other Ethernet devices regardless of operating system.
How Does It Work?
HomePlug AV utilizes the existing electrical wiring in the house as a path to create a secured
network of computers and Ethernet devices. With a maximum data rate of up to 200 Mbps,
HomePlug AV can reliably handle high requirement applications such as broadband
Internet, high definition video streaming, and Voice over IP.
HomePlug AV converts digital signals to a complex analog signal that traverses along the
electrical wires. When receiving the analog signal, HomePlug AV converts the analog signal
back to digital. To make the signal secured, a 128-bit AES encryption is applied.
A HomePlug AV device can only communicate with other HomePlug AV devices that use
the same Private Network Name. The Private Network Name can be easily changed in two
ways; (1) is through the Homeplug AV Web User Interface. It can be changed manually using
the HomePlug AV Web User Interface on a computer with a Windows operating system.
When you use the Web Interface, you have to manually type the Private Network Name for
the device. (2) Is through the Simple Connect button. The Simple Connect button
automatically creates an encrypted Private Network Name. It can also be used to reset the
Private Network Name or to add a device into an existing HomePlug AV network.
Note: HomePlug AV devices are effective when used in pairs. The Twin packs are already
configured to use a common Private Network Name unique for that pair and are ready to
use without involving any complex configurations. The HomePlug AV from a Single Pack on
the other hand, uses a random Private Network Name. You still need to change its Private
Network Name to allow it to communicate with an existing HomePlug AV network.
Page 5 of 41
User Manual
When a HomePlug AV communicates with another device, the Powerline Activity LED
color will indicate the status of the connection rate it provides: Red means below 30 Mbps;
Amber means 30 to 80 Mbps; and Green means more than 80 Mbps.
Direct Connection
For best performance, connect the HomePlug AV directly to a wall outlet. Avoid connecting
it to a power strip where other electrical devices are connected. Other devices create
electrical noise or interference that may affect the overall performance of HomePlug AV.
