P200 200Mbps PowerLine Mini Adapter
Chapter 1 Product Overview
To build a network at home or office with minimum effort and cost, the Tenda 200Mbps Powerline Mini Adapter P200 is your choice. In many cases, Ethernet is just not available in places where network connectivity is needed. However, almost every room at home or office has power circuitry, which can be used to extend network connections from your broadband router Just simply plug one P200 that links to a broadband modem/router into the power outlet in one room, and plug another P200 linking to a PC or any Ethernet device in the other, you can then easily and instantly connect to the network of up to 200Mbps transmission rate. Also, it delivers data to a distance up to 300 meters away.
P200 provides Quality of Service (QoS) guaranteeing high reliability and tight control of latency allowing you to quickly assign higher priority to Internet surfing/IPTV/audio/video/VOIP/online game services or specified IP/MAC addresses.
The device supports 128-bit AES encryption to secure your data transmission with simple operation. Plus, the "Pair/Reset" hardware button allows you to quickly create a private Powerline network with multiple adapters involved.
