The DHP-P601AV PowerLine AV2 1000 HD Gigabit Passthrough Kit comes with two DHP-
P600AV PowerLine AV2 1000 HD Gigabit Passthrough Adapters. These adapters use your
electrical wiring to extend your home network to places where you currently have no Internet
access as your wireless signal is not strong enough to reach (such as a garage or basement).
Simply plug one adapter into your existing router to turn any power outlet in your home into
an Internet connection and then plug the other adapter into the room you want to extend your
connection to.
These PowerLine adapters also feature an extra passthrough power socket to ensure that your
electrical outlet remains available for use by another device while the PowerLine adapter is
2
plugged into the socket. The Passthrough socket features noise ltering which helps prevent
signal noise from any electrical device plugged into the socket from aecting your PowerLine
connection.
Data Transmission Over Electrical Wiring
The D-Link DHP-P601AV PowerLine AV2 1000 HD Gigabit Passthrough Kit turns every power
socket into a possible network connection to access digital media devices, game consoles,
network printers, computers and network storage devices throughout your home. Compliance
with the HomePlug AV2 standard and backward compatibility with the HomePlug AV standard
ensure that the DHP-P601AV can be used with older PowerLine devices.
Ideal For Bandwidth-Intensive Applications

transmission speed makes it ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications, guaranteeing smooth
HD video streaming, VoIP calls, and lag-free online gaming. In addition, it prioritises Internet
trac to help ensure that whatever movie or music you’re streaming doesn’t skip or stutter
while you’re web surng and downloading les at the same time. Now you can experience
