1 Introduction
This chapter gives an overview of the Powerline technology and briefly introduces the adapter. Practical examples are listed at the end
1.1 What does “Inhouse Powerline” stand for?
HomePlug (“Inhouse Powerline”, PLC) is an intelligent, secure technology
that lets you set up a home network easily, quickly and economically via your
electrical wiring, without the need for complex and expensive dedicated
cabling. The available performance and effort required for the installation also
compares favourably to traditional methods—Powerline technology now
attains speeds you would expect from other LAN technologies.
1.2 What is WLAN?
of the chapter.
WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) refers to the use of radio technology to
network computers and other devices. While it is possible to wirelessly connect computers in pairs (peer-to-peer, p2p), a
to set up a network of multiple devices. Such access points are frequently
combined in a single device with modems for Internet access and routers to
manage network traffic.
The wireless network established by an access point using a specific
(from 1 to 13) and name (SSID) has a limited range. The range of the access
point, which is also known as a "radio cell", is impeded by building walls. In
some cases, stable connections are often only possible between WLAN
devices within a single room.
As it is not possible to rely on hardware such as ne
household wiring (in Powerline) to control access to a WLAN, wireless networking naturally presents special security cha

encryption and access control via the MAC addresses of the network adapters.

synonymously with WLAN, which if taken strictly, is incorrect, because Wi-Fi
designates the wireless standard and WLAN the wireless network.
1.3 The PL500D N150
With the PL500D N150 you can quickly and easily establish connections
between WLAN, HomePlug (PLC) and LAN.
• As a WLAN access point, the adapter establishes communication be
your WLAN devices and an existing LAN or PLC network. In this way, for
example, you can expand your wireless network in no time to rooms that
otherwise could not be reached by wireless.

On the one hand, you connect fixed network devices,
such as computers and
Internet access devices, by HomePlug. On the other hand, you include
devices such as smartphones, laptops and tablets in your home network via
Wi-Fi. Each additional PL500D N150 (e.g. one on every storey) makes it easy
for you to enable full Internet access everywhere in the home via Wi-Fi and/

transmitted automatically and continuously to the other WLAN client(s) of the
wireless network. The PL500D N150 offers two different variants for transmitting these encryption keys:

Appendix 37
a) The warranty covers the eq
turer's sole discretion, be replaced or repaired free o f charge if, despite p roven prop er handling and adherence to the operating instructions, these parts became defective due to
fabrication and/or material defects. Alternatively, the manufacturer reserves the right to
replace the defective product with a comparable product with the same specifications and
features. Operating manuals and possibly supplied software are excluded from the warranty.
b) Material and service charges shall be covered by the manufacturer, but not shipping and
handling costs involved in transport from the buyer to th e service statio n and/or to the man-
ufacturer.
c) Replaced parts become property of the manufacturer.
d) The manufacturer is authorized to carry out technical changes (e.g. firmware updates)
beyond repair and replacement of defective parts in order t o bring the equipment up to the
current technical state. This does not result in any additional charge for the customer. A
legal claim to this service does not exist.
2 Warranty period
The warranty period for this product is two years. This period begins at the day of delivery from
the manufacturer's dealer. Warra nty serv ices carried out by the man ufact urer do no t result in an
extension of the warranty period nor do they initiate a n ew warranty period. T he warranty period
for installed replacement parts ends with the warranty period of the device as a whole.
3 Warranty procedure
a) If defects appear during the warranty period, t
ately, at the latest within a period of 7 days.
b) In the case of any externally visible damage arising from transport (e.g. damage to the
housing), the person carrying out the transportation and the sender should be informed
immediately. On discovery of damage which is not externally visible, the transport company
and the sender are to be immediately informed in writing, at t he latest within 3 day s of deliv-
ery.
c) Transport to and from the location where the warranty claim is accepted and/or the repaired
device is exchanged, is at the purchaser's own risk and cost.

device. The manufacturer reserves the right to require the submission of the original pur-
chase receipt.

5 Operating mistakes
If it becomes apparent that the reported malfunction of the device ha s been caused by unsuitable
hardware, software, installation or operation, the manufacturer reserves the right to charge the
purchaser for the resulting testing costs.
6 Additional regulations
a) The above conditions define the complete scope of the manufacturer's legal liability.
b) The warranty gives no entitlement to additional claims, such as any refund in full or in part.
Compensation claims, regardless of the legal basis, are excluded. This does not apply if
e.g. injury to persons or damage to private property are spec if ically covered by the pro duct
liability law, or in cases of intentional act or culpable negligence.
c) Claims for compensation of lost profits, indirect or consequential detriments, are excluded.
d) The manufacturer is not liable for lost data or retrieval of lost data in cases of slight and ord i-
nary negligence.
e) In the case that the intentional or culpa ble negligence of the manufacturer's employees has
caused a loss of data, the manufacturer will be liable for those costs typical to the recovery
of data where periodic security data back-ups have been made.
f) The warranty is valid only for the first purchaser and is not transferable.
g) The court of jurisdiction is located in Aachen, Germany in the case that the purchaser is a
merchant. If the purchaser does not have a court of jurisdiction in the Federal Republic of
Germany or if he moves his domicile out of Germany after conclusion of the contract, the
