Thank you for purchasing the Surf Powerline Networking Adapter (the Adapter). Most people don’t enjoy buying long and expensive
Ethernet cables or pulling the cables from one place to another, but the Adapter offers one of the easiest ways to enjoy home or
small-business networking. Users can now experience a total network solution with the Adapter. The Surf Powerline Networking
Adapter operates on the HomePlug® Powerline AV standard, providing up to 200Mbps* bandwidth over home AC wiring. Since the
home power lines are the most pervasive medium in households with multiple outlets in every room, the Adapter allows multiple
home desktop and notebook computers to be networked to share an Internet connection, printers, and files, stream video, and
play games without any additional wiring. The advanced signal processing is capable of maintaining coverage throughout the entire
house, even across different phase rings.
These Adapters also use xtendnet technology to ensure the most robust
powerline network in the market. Each additional Belkin Surf Powerline
or Play Powerline Adapter that is plugged in is capable of repeating the
data signal for ma ximum coverage of your home.
